Clearblue® OVULATION TESTS
WE WERE PREGNANT!
My husband, Joel, and I had been trying to conceive for many months without success. We tried using the apps and even got the smiley from the Clearblue Ovulation Test, but we were having no luck.
Finally, after months of waiting, frustration and hopefulness on the first day of lockdown in NYC, we took the test. We were pregnant!! Everything happens for a reason and in its own time.
Thank you Clearblue ?

Having a miscarriage is a sad experience and sometimes there is no explanation as to why it’s happened. The fact is that miscarriage is possibly more common than you think, affecting an estimated 1 in 4 pregnancies. It may be comforting to know you’re not alone.
