Help! Faint BFP on two tests but faded after 15 mins - what does this mean?

62 replies

Regular but name changed

Am due on Wed...did an extra sensitive dip test and got a very faint positive. Stared and stared with a big fat and then did another one - same result

However, going back to them 20 mins later, line has faded, leaving only control line

Instructions say to disregard after 10mins but am now flapping..what does this line fading mean...am PG but have tested to early or what??

I mean as far as I can see, a line is a line, I've had PG symptoms etc so...

Bit late but congratulations very pleased for you.

NoMoreChocBiscuits · 18/07/2010 21:00

Been keeping an eye on this thread too. Great to see two BFP when I was only crossing my fingers for one!

Congrats to you both and hope that they are both super intelligent, super cute, super sticky little ones.

IfAtFirst - thank you so much, I am really chuffed too, though scared. Would you believe it was the month I gave up and we only had sex once in the fertile window. Due to a change in other circumstances I was very, very relaxed and happy this month. Sending you all the good luck I possibly can x

IfAtFirstUDontSucceed · 18/07/2010 19:43

Have just read this thread with crossed fingers, congratulations Puss

And also congrats to you too Kara, have been following you on some of these threads and am really chuffed for you

Keeping everything crossed for the both of you.

Send some of your good luck over this way please x

I think the key thing was sex as soon as the EWCM started - other times, we had done it when the EWCM was at its peak, which perhaps was not the right thing

Also spent time with my legs in the air after sex so hopefully egg has not been fertilised by gravity confused sperm and end up in bottom of class

Is the laptop safe? Am on it most nights and have the wireless dongle thing on the side to boost the speed and a bit twitchy about it...

KaraTrace · 18/07/2010 18:51

Congratulations - I hope we are both ok and have March 2011 babies.

Loujalou · 18/07/2010 18:49

Hopefully all is well at least you can avoid the clomid. Did you do anything different this month it was it just one of those things?

PussinJimmyChoos · 18/07/2010 18:45

I hope so....bit worried about Mc as been TTC for so long ....

Loujalou · 18/07/2010 18:41

Woo hoo. Fingers crossed its a sticky x

liahgen66 · 18/07/2010 18:00

rosieposey · 18/07/2010 17:30

TotorosOcarina · 18/07/2010 17:24

Awww congrats!

PussinJimmyChoos · 18/07/2010 17:22

Well....CD 33 today...

5 faint BFPs on dip tests

PussinJimmyChoos · 17/07/2010 22:04

Nicola - I'm crossing my fingers too

Last time I tested was Thur am with a bog standard test - not extra sensitive

Still no AF...have been going back over the month and I am quite sure I ovulated late so taking 14 days from start of EWCM puts me at yest/today...so it could just be late due to ovulation being later??

However, have never gone into CD33 iirc

What's the betting I log off and RTD arrives in a few hours!

Loujalou · 17/07/2010 07:09

Mmmm I would be tempted to test again. When was the last time you tested. All seems like it might be good signs. Well no rtd is always a good sign. Can you organise a bloodtest?

PussinJimmyChoos · 16/07/2010 20:40

Still no flo

CD 32 tomorrow...not having normal pre flow signs either - tmi but usually have slightly yellowish discharge and wee is a little darker but this month, none of that

Feel a bit sicky in the evenings and not fussed about chocolate which is unlike me pre af

But then, could just be pyschosomatic

liahgen66 · 15/07/2010 21:06

god its confusing isn't it? I feel for you and hope it works out.

PussinJimmyChoos · 15/07/2010 20:08

I tested with FMU this am with a standard test on day your period is due Boots test (ran out of dip ones!) it was negative

However, if ovulated late, then I'm not technically late yet am I???

Had two BFNs before BFP nearly 5 days late with DS

Arse...now my hopes are getting up!!

liahgen66 · 15/07/2010 20:06

have you tested today puss fingers crossed for you.

PussinJimmyChoos · 15/07/2010 20:01

I did think about evaporation lines but I thought they appeared after the set time for reading the test had elapsed

What threw me was that I had lines appearing on two separate strips (albeit same sample) and I had never had that before. I was a bit puzzled that they didn't stay but then thought oh ok, the instructions say to disregard the test after 10 minutes anyway

Either way, CD 30 today and still no flo...each time I go to the loo, keep expecting to see something...mind you, if ovulated late ( which I think I may have) then period maybe later starting

This does my head in!!
