How many dpo did you get a positive pregnancy result on a home pregnancy test?

Just curious? I am 11 dpo & tested this morning, there seems to be the faintest of faint lines but very thin in comparison with the control window line, I think I may be imagining it? I will test again tomo but just wondering if you can get a positive hpt that early? Thanks

Yes it was a thin line like hair width, to the left where a thick line should be. Its so annoying, I spent yesterday evolving fantasies in my head re how I would tell dh. Argh to 'not so clear blue'!

jaggythistle · 27/06/2011 09:30

was it kind of a thin line. not as wide as the control? I googled a lot after mine. we should really complain to clearblue as it seems quite common. I was too in the huff to bother Blush

fx for you still...

Yes it was that type, grrrrrrrr it sounds like a false positive then! Thanks for the info. Af isn't actually due until saturday so part off me still hopes but I know that I probably am not pregnant.

jaggythistle · 27/06/2011 09:15

Ilikeyour was it a clearblue + type?

I got a false positive on one a few months ago and have since discovered the + type ones are the only ones which can give false results. Lots of threads on here with similar puzzled people.

really hope yours is real though! fx lots. :)

I'm never using a + one again :(

It's so weird, I just checked both hpts & the one I did yesterday definitely has a faint line when compared to the one I did this morning. I wonder if it's been a chemical pregnancy then? Or maybe the second test didn't work cos it wasn't early morning pee? (clutching at straws here...)

Do you think I should buy another test? What test is most sensitive?

Sorry to hear that sleeves, enjoy your holiday.
I have another faint line on a frer with fmu this am. Going to get more tests later. Starting to get a bit excited now but want to see a strong line before I really believe it.

I couldn't sleep so ended up testing again at 230am. It's a bfn :( Absolutely no faint line this time so I think it must have been an evaporation line or something.

I'm ok though, it was out first month ttc again so not too surprising really. And I can now go on my holiday & eat camembert & pate lol.

Good luck to everyone else & sorry I'm not your bump buddy baby dust! X I

That would be most odd if your weren't pregnant at 26 dpo would it not raisin? Sounds promising although I can understand why you would be feeling cautious.

I am having weird symptoms now, I have a strange taste in my mouth (not sure if it's metallic or if it's my imagination) but we had a weird dinner with anchovies in it so it might be that. I am also starving again! And my belly has swollen. Though thats probably cos I ate a ton of biscuits there :o

I am away to bed now (I'm knackered too but I'm always knackered) but I don't know how I'll sleep. Wish me luck for the morning!

Yep I'm about 26dpo... if I'm not PG ths is the latest I have been in 22 years of having AF come to visit. My last test was 11 days ago though and am now holding off til the weekend so my fella can share in the terror lol. It's such early days and I had a chemical pg in Feb so am keen to wait for the bean to firmly ensconce themselves before I know for sure iyswim.

babydust27 · 26/06/2011 20:46

thanks everyone! he was really pleased and then decided that its time he did some driving lessons so ive gone upstairs and left him sitting on the sofa applying for his licence! I think he is still in shock! i really hope we are bump buddies, it would be great to have someone to get excited with! its a really strange feeling though im not really sure what to do with myself now

shellmc · 26/06/2011 20:30

Just been readin through your posts, oooohhh sounds soo exciting for you all :)
Big Congrats to babydust27 its a wonderful feeling isnt it?? I remember having a very giggly nervous laugh when i got my BFP too.
Sounds very promising for you too, ilikeyoursleeves :)
Good luck xx

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooo Babydust!!! Congratulations!!! That's great that the clearblue gave a definate result :) What did DP say?

My AF was 2nd June so fingers crossed I will be your bump buddy by tomorrow :o

Bet your mind is going crazy right now! Enjoy these precious moments, and have a happy healthy pregnancy!

Good luck to wrinkly raisin- are you 26dpo then? That is really weird- do you have irregular periods? Hopefully you get a BFP this weekend if not before.

OP posts:
babydust27 · 26/06/2011 20:11

ive just done the clearblue one and its a BFP!!!!!

Says Pregnant 1-2 weeks, 1st day of last period was 3rd june so i make me 3 weeks and 2 days, due on 8th March

Told DP, i just stood in the doorway of the hall and shouted it out in shock!!!

I didnt expect the clear blue digital one to show this early but that must been a good sign that the hcg levels are high!

Im going to ring the docs tomorrow and ask them who i need to see

I seem to not be able to control my nervous laughter at the moment!!!!!

wrinklyraisin · 26/06/2011 20:06

I'm 13 ish days late and no AF. But I got a bfn on the 15th (was about 15dpo I think) and am now waiting to test again this coming weekend with my fella unless AF appears in the meantime. Its very strange. I have some "symptoms" like tingly boobs, nausea, fatigue... so, fingers crossed!

Not necessarily too early for cravings- I had them before I knew I was pg the last twice, I craved salty things & was eating tons of salt & vinegar crisps & olives!

Re telling the dr- with ds1 I was in hospital due to my reaction to my ivf drugs so the drs obviously knew the result & I think referred me to a midwife. With ds2 I went to the gp the morning I found out I was pg (through disbelief I guess!) & they confirmed it with another poas then referred me to the midwife. I think anyway! If I get a bfp tomo I might try to see the gp tomo if they have space.

babydust27 · 26/06/2011 19:15

ive eaten loads in the last few days! Far to early for cravings but all i want is some seeded bread toasted with loads of philadelphia!!

Havent really got any symptoms except a bit of an ache in my lower back and cramps every now and then

Did you go to the doctor when you found out last night or straight to the mid wife? Wondering if i should ring up tomorrow and make an appointment for end of the week/start of the next week?
