Okay so Beanie is testing tomorrow, GG may have tested, sarah is testing again this arvo? Who else?

I could be anything from 12DPO to 7DPO as I don't know when I Ov'd but am thinking if no AF I may test Sunday is BFN I will test again next Sunday unless AF shows up. am CD31 now so this one could be another 35day cyles.

My only symptoms latley are constipation and tiredness Oh and one sore boob but that's normal pre AF.

pixie04 · 09/11/2007 13:29

Sarahnh. I am convinced you are pregnant cramping is acctually a pregnancy symptom. Your womb would be starting to swell a bit already which will be why your having painful cramps. My SIL got very painful cramps in the first 12 weeks which she felt very had to deal with they were that instense, but its your body getting ready to accomodate the baby, ligaments stretching ect.

beaniesteve · 09/11/2007 13:15

two people have commented on the size of my breasts! Oh dearie... must test tonight or tomorrow!

pixie and isobella, thank you for your words of encouragement i think i am too nervous to believe what you say cos until there is a definite and i mean definite line and i am reserving judgement!!! I remember an old thread which someone wished that when you got pg you got orange feet!!! i want orange feet!! hee hee

if you're not pregnant I'll eat my tester stick (when I buy one!).

pixie04 · 09/11/2007 11:16

sarah's pregnant sarah pregnant You missed telling us about the Lloyds one! Very naughty. I think congratulations are in order maybe time to break out the CDdigitals?????? At least then if you do that one in the morning you don't need to stress about falling asleep after or mixing up evaporation lines hehehehe. When I do tests (OPK's) I don't drink anything for the last two hours of work and don't go to the loo either. Then I do my test when I get home. You need to hold your wee for about 2 - 4 hours. If you have already had 2 BFP's then there should be enough hormone to do a PM test

in the office so cannot check ditigalgirl!!! I have never had evaporations lines before either so I just don't know.. deep breath... i was a bit naughty yesterday and bought a lloyds test ( i know i wasn't suspose to test til today...) and that also came up with a very very very faint line... however again i cannot remember how long i left it for so that could have been an evaporation line too!!

Oh god i am being so thick this month!! Every month previous i have regliously checked and double checked each and very pg kit and this month i cannot seem to do it right at all!!

digitalgirl · 09/11/2007 10:57

sarah how exciting! have you checked the instructions? do they say whether to throw the test away after 10 minutes?

I've never had an evaporation line on a PG test, only false positive on opks (and a LH line on a CBD which got my hopes up, but then you're not supposed to take them apart and stare at the lines that's why they're digital, of all people I 'digitalgirl' should know).

ohhhhh girls you are giving me hope, but i am desperately trying not to get my hopes up!! With DD i tested the afternoon of AF after a long drive had had built up loads of wee!! Had to get my hubbie home from work to see what he thought!! Ended going out and getting loads more tests and the all came up bfn!!! Tested next morning and bfn, hubbie went out and bough a cb and it came back bfp!! So going on what happened the last time i don't think that i get much of the pg hormone to start with, but having said that after my massive labour pains on tues/wed i really do think it is a shot in the dark!! Trouble in i cannot stop thinking about it and as a result am getting no work done!!!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOh! How exciting! sarahnh If the line you got this morning was a BFP then if you use an early test like a first response or something this arvo it should still show up. If I were you I'd get a double pack then if the test this arvo is negative you can check with another test 2moro AM and don't fall asleep this time. It does look good though sarah I done loads and I mean loads of PG tests and have never had an evaporation line.

Isobella123 · 09/11/2007 10:40

I think if you get a line, no matter how faint, you are pregnant.

I think you get a stronger line in the morning only because your wee is more concentrated and there is more hormone present.

If there is no pregnancy hormone there can be no line.

Also as I understand it you can get a false negative but not a false positive.

If I were you I would try and store up some wee and go and get another test.

When I got pg first time around we actually purchased three different brands and got the same result before we believed it!

will get another test this afo, i know that first mmorning wee is best but how long should you wait before testing (ie building up your wee!) sorry tmi, but i don't want to go through another very faint line and wondering if it is just an evaporation line!!

Also is an evaporation line the same coulour as the test line or is it a different colour??? Sorry for all the questions but i am really obsessing today!!

biglips · 09/11/2007 10:02

sarah - do another test this afternoon and see if the line gets stronger

Beanie - good luck to you and let us know..

beaniesteve · 09/11/2007 10:00

hokey dokey - bought a test last night but didn't do it this morning. Want to do it when the boyfriend is there so I am thinking I will either do it tonight or tomorrow morning (morning is better right?)... that way we'll have the weekend to freak out in. I didn't fancy the idea of getting a positive result and then having to come to work.

Couldn't sleep last night... going round and round in my head how we would break the news to our families, and when.

I'm such a worrier. I want to be a parent, I am 37 so I should know how to act like an adult but this would be my first and I suddenly realised I haven't a clue what I am doing!

Anyway - felt fairly unwell this morning and am really convinced that I am pregnant. Only one way to find out eh?!

Isobella123 · 09/11/2007 09:58

Sarahnh - I think you should do another test!

I thought regardless of how long you left it if you're not going to get a line it wouldn't be there (iyswim).
