I just did a superdrug sensitive as a NYE precaution before going out. Any thoughts? I've got a clear blue digital, but I'm waiting till morning as its not as sensitive. IC showing nothing. Day 28, usually 28-30.

It's been difficult to photograph without a shadow.

So sorry Bonxie Flowers

I have had that exact scenario happen twice at least, it's a roller coaster. Take care of yourself and I agree with you that it's encouraging at least that something's working there.

Victoria you do sound a bit desperate.. You have a positive there by the looks of things. You need to start a new thread though!

haveacupoftea · 02/01/2017 23:19

Sorry to hear abour your chemical but you have totally the right attitude Smile good luck for your next cycle!

victoriaplum8 · 02/01/2017 21:38

I keep trying but it won't let me and I felt desperate for someone else's opinion. Sorry

Buttwing · 02/01/2017 21:29

Bit insensitive Victoria! Maybe better to start a new thread?

victoriaplum8 · 02/01/2017 21:23

Sorry to gatecrash this post but could any one give me an opinion on this test? I'm sure I can see a little be but my period is not due for 3 days. Thank you xxxx

Morning! Thank you so much for your posts, really appreciate it.

AF came in full force last night. I'm concluding a chemical, as I felt a bit off last week, off coffee, and two mornings post Christmas felt as though I were hungover on a small glass of wine and a bowl of sherry trifle.

This is good news though, as clearly they are getting there and there is something for them to get to 😄 I'm glad I did the test on NYE or I wouldn't have known, so all in all it encourages me that something is going right with the new relaxed post-acupuncture me. (I spent most of 2016 being very uptight after reading the egg quality book...)

Happy New Year!

That looks fairly definite to me, but I have had positives before like that, which then turned out to be chemical pregnancies, and AF arrived.

See how things pan out in the next few days, and good luck!

Had to laugh at testing in the McDonalds toilet! Been there, done that!

haveacupoftea · 02/01/2017 08:23

I think you are pg - waiting patiently for todays update Smile

MissClarke86 · 01/01/2017 14:44

Also I don't think evap lines are as common as people make them seem on here.

I've done loads and loads of tests (bit obsessive!) and never had an evap, even when looking at then a day or two later. Im fairly certain anything coming up within 5-10 minutes is a genuine result, especially if is coloured.

MissClarke86 · 01/01/2017 14:42

When I found out I was pregnant it felt like that, heavy and a bit crampy. I had spotting too which was implantation bleeding.

It's definitely positive though. Obviously there's a chance it could be a chemical and not stick but for now I'd just see what happens over the next few days :)

Even if it took longer? I do feel AF is about to start properly, what with the spotting. Although it's not like my usual start. Something has at least tried to happen, perhaps?

OP posts:
MissClarke86 · 01/01/2017 14:11

Definitely positive!

namechangedjustforthis · 01/01/2017 14:10

That's a definite positive!

I'll try for a frer but it may have to wait till tomorrow. This is today's (pic taken in McDonald's loo), although I'm convinced AF is about to appear now. It took more than 3 mins to come up, but a lot less than 10. Could it just be evaporation?

I'll try to find a frer, but it might have to wait till morning, and I'm convinced AF is imminent now.

I did take this in McDonald's loo though:

(It took longer than the 3 mins, but definitely less than 10. I've had these before and never had evaps, has anyone else?)

Can you get to a boots for a FRER?

I didn't take some fmu out with me in a tiny jam jar, oh no... Another very faint line on a superdrug early. I'm still out so can't photograph it. Also a tiny bit of spotting so I think I tried, but probably not this time.

OP posts:
INeedNewShoes · 01/01/2017 12:08

The Clearblue digital require a stronger concentration of HCG to get a positive result so don't be disheartened.

FRER are the gold standard for early testing!

Good luck Smile

Lilly948204 · 01/01/2017 12:04

The line looks very strange to me. There is definitely something there but it's too narrow compared to what you would normally get. I'd try a FRER, I've got two positives on these very clearly at 9dpo. Good luck xx

Clearblue digital says not pregnant, but I'm going to try a more sensitive one later if I can find one.

Thanks all! I only got in at half 3 (buoyed by adrenaline!) so last loo trip was very late. As soon as I have further intelligence I will post Grin

Tesco near me opens at 11, but I don't think they sell frers or very sensitive ones, and the internet won't tell me if superdrug opens today, so I'll ring the nearest one at usual Sunday opening time of 11. This is the first time I haven't had the full range in stock!
