Am I seeing things?

I'm not sure when I ovulated. Might be 7dpo might be 10. just did a FRER, and I'm fairly sure there is a second line and it looks pink. Hard to get a decent picture the last one I've changed the lighting.

Ladies, same here... FRER faint pink line, but 10mlU cheap strips from amazon not picking up a thing... 8/9DPO now, so hoping it is still extremely early...

MrsSharpie · 26/11/2019 09:07

I've only been using the first response early result... But maybe it's time for a different brand?!

MrsSharpie · 26/11/2019 09:06

Which is the blue? Because that definitely looks like a positive...

It's so infuriating! Like if I am, I want to know but if I'm not I want to know so that my false hopes aren't super high!

AutismFamily · 26/11/2019 08:12

I done one last night and was a bit darker just done one now and I'm squinting and turning it to see something. So I'm the same as u Hun xxx

Same here @MrsSharpie I think it must just be a dodgy batch of tests. I'm 11dpo today so also losing hope

Have people started getting darker lines yet? I'm due AF in 2 days and still getting the is that a line /is it not a line and getting crazier by the day!!
Some symptoms have stopped too though still have additional bumps on my areola and sore boobs as well as the metallic taste etc so I think I just need to give up hope 😩

The cheaper tests where you dip a stick are better and show up sooner. Worth a try.

Good luck

I am 9dpo. Just caved and did a FRER. I can't honestly say there was even a shadow of a line. Maybe. Must. Stop. Testing.

SunnyFlover · 24/11/2019 22:18

@AutismFamily , I would say it's a very early positive 👍🏼

AutismFamily · 24/11/2019 21:49

Hi everyone I hope u don't mind me joining Ur chat. I'm looking for Ur opinions and fresh eyes. I only had sex once on Tuesday I'm due on in 7 days. So I done a test last night which had a faint line and then one this morning which again had a line but lighter than the night before. I'm having a few symptoms. But I suffer from miscarriages so don't know what to think. Blue jeans is last night other is this morning xx

@Whyhaveidonethis how many days DPO are you? I am 7dpo max, so still extremely early for any symptoms and even the BFP... the line is just an added early bonus!
The line seems pink

MrsC89 · 24/11/2019 11:06

@SunnyFlover welcome to the group! I swear all our tests look the same!

I have zero symptoms and actually now feel pretty low about it! I've convinced myself I'm not pg

@SunnyFlover it looks exactly like mine. Fingers crossed

I just did a CB and mine doesn't look positive on that. Although I know they are shit.

Ladies... drumroll.... 6-7DPO.... seems like an early positive?!
I am so afraid to get excited as I had a chemical last month 🙄

I've not even told DP. I've had 3 chemicals this year, he will think I'm crazy for testing.

@mrsc89 I know, it doesn't help when you're already trying to convince yourself you're not crazy!!

I've been trying to avoid symptom spotting this week but it's been difficult when... Nearly collapsed from lightheadedness this week, got sent to the walk in centre by my boss (only a temperature wrong with me) and then sent home from dizziness and nausea (there's a bug around the office so she thought I had that). On top of dizziness, had not quite cramping but almost, metallic taste and sense of smell is off the charts, and sore boobs. Last couple of days bumps on areola have been appearing and can see a vein in each boob. And an intermittent sore back... So many of these things can be explained away but all at once with a faint line... Trying not to get my hopes up but it's really difficult not to!!

MrsC89 · 24/11/2019 09:21

@MrsSharpie my husband called me crazy yesterday, oh the joys of TTC. He did then actually look but asked why the line was faint. Explained, then got asked why dont I wait until late for AF like normal people?

MrsSharpie · 24/11/2019 09:17

I tried to upload mine but it doesn't seem to want to... Did a filter into black and white and there's a line showing a bit more.

Hubby is away this weekend and I want to say it to him, but I know he's going to say it's my eyes playing tricks!

MrsC89 · 24/11/2019 09:01

I am going to try and leave testing until Wednesday at the earliest. I reckon I wont last that long, I just want to know!
@MrsSharpie keep us updated Grin

@MrsSharpie join the club. I'm desperate to test again but don't want a bfn or another squinter so I'm trying to hold off

OP posts:
MrsSharpie · 24/11/2019 07:35

I see lines on both! :) I'm in the 'are my eyes playing games with me or is it a faint line' stage too and wondering how soon I can do another test!
