Is this an evap line?

I'm confused. I've been tracking my period app but haven't been tracking ovulation so I actually don't know how far I am but right now I'm between 9-12 dpo
I tested what I thought was 6dpo going off my period app as I'm getting every pregnancy symptom ever and to my surprise I watched a line form but it disappeared in seconds! Thought nothing of it but curiosity got the best of me. So I got it out the bin to find a thick pink line it was past the time frame by 20-30 mins. Took test yesterday and I'm sure it's a bfn
I just want your thoughts on my first test going to grab a first response soon and try hold it out till my first due period

@Diasy31980 my period has been very very light which is very unusual considering with the cramps I had leading up to it and a couple days I should be ok heavy with vengeance. I'm lightly lightly bleeding my cycles last 5-6 days but I'm slowing down. I'm honestly at a loss with my body I don't know what's going on if I don't laugh I'll cry!

I really hope I see a positive from you soon x

Mine took a while to get going this month but it’s now day 5 and finishing. I’ll admit I’m now bored of temping each day and waiting for day 8/9 to start opk tests. But it is what it is. Maybe this cycle, maybe not. I hope it is for you

It's very weird this period I came on roughly 2pm today. I should have changed my pad at least once by now? There's a fair amount of blood on pad but the outline on it is like spotting? If that makes any sense at all. There's no new blood on the pad it's brown it's gone dark. It's a very very low flow when I wipe there's a ton of blood but I checked after 40 mins after putting a new bad on and there's no blood only when I wipe? I know this is tmi but normally when I push down sneeze laugh etc every woman's experienced it come out right? I have nothing. This doesn't feel normal.
I did a test today and it said negative😔 I'm just going to check my blood flow over the next few days

I did on Monday, 1 day late, knew I would as temp dropped below cover line. Keep your chin up and it’s onwards and upwards to next cycle

@Diasy31980 I haven't been testing that I had to google it to see what it meant🤦🏻‍♀️😂 im going off my symptoms and my faint lines im seeing. New Symptom surfaced today raging heartburn 😔 I haven't tested I think I should have came on today I'm not sure. I think I forgot to press end cycle on my app and pressed finished cycle the next day.. I think but if not my af due tomorrow so time will tell I can be a day late so I'm about to jump in a hot lavender bath it helps bring my period forward x

It’s ok, it happens (I was heartbroken at the time) but life moves on and we heal.

Temps as in tracking your Basel body temp at the same time each morning on waking after at least 3 consecutive hours of sleep. Recording it on an app like fertility friend. Using a bbt thermometer.

Im due today and my CM is consistent with it coming, my temp has usually dropped below the cover line by now but is still above and some other oddities this month. But, sometimes it doesn’t start till the evening so still time yet. If nothing tomorrow I’ll test again but I know it will be negative this month.

Have you tested again?

@Diasy31980 sorry to sound so dumb but what do you mean by temps?🤦🏻‍♀️😂 again I'm sorry for your losses! I can't imagine how you felt😔 it's heartbreaking. My boobs feel full but less sore. I have period cramps like I'm about to come on but I also experienced what I think is spotting today first time ever so still unsure the blood was very light brown which is very very unusual for me no blood since then. I am due on Monday but I can be late by a day or 2 always here if you want to chat sweetie x

Every month between loss 1 and my son I had certain symptoms but the month I actually was I had none but just knew. This surprise one and loss I just knew. Where my bodies screwed still each month I have symptoms and hope, but I reckon I’ll just know again.

Next cycle for me would be a mid January birthday so a bit of a rubbish month for a birthday cold, dark and everyone on the Christmas hangover but we will still try as

Diasy31980 · 22/04/2023 17:28

What are your temps doing? I’ve had some wicked evaps (I’ve had a chemical before and they’re different) mine started to plummet yesterday 13dpo, cm clear and watery and I’ve a terrible headache so expecting AF tomorrow right on time. The only good thing now is my cycles since the MC are only 25 days so I get to find out quicker. On to the next cycle. I’d stop testing now and test again if AF doesn’t show.

This is my 4th test and every test I've seen the same faint line but the first that one was a big big positive but was out the time frame. So I'm so so confused I've never experienced the tww but my symptoms are screaming pregnancy I guess we won't know till period. I started all this early then 6dpo I just tested on that day. So I would have bled by now maybe if it was chemical I think im 11dpo today so it should be darker by now not celebrating just yet

An implanted egg can stop developing and then it can still take a few days for the bleeding to start. The bleeding may just come along about at the same time as your normal period was due and you would never have known if you hadn’t tested early. It’s really hard to wait I know but this early testing means you will pick up chemicals that you would otherwise not have known about.

Can see what I'm looking at a bit clearer if I'm pregnant it should be a little darker now. So I'm taking my losses this month 😔 period due in 2-3 days so I'll be waiting x

@user4567890754 evaps are grey and have no colour usually happens after time frame so I've been told. I've had a few or it's imaginary. 😂 I've not bled at all between periods so it can't be a chemical? Im just so so confused to see a bfp, a faint line now 90% negative (im sure I can see a line) only on the pic and not in person (I think) so not getting hopes up just yet

OP posts:
user4567890754 · 21/04/2023 09:17

No such thing as an evap line. Colour can only be caused by hcg so you were /are pregnant. Could be a chemical , early loss, but may just have been more concentrated urine for whatever reason on the first test. It’s still so early. You will just have to wait and see. It’s hard. I know.

@Diasy31980 I think I'm out this month I'm sure I can see a line on this pic but not in person like the others. My first pregnancy test was a BFP and a very faint on my first response. Took this test fmu. If the line im seeing is there it would be darker by now so im out this month I think 😔 x

It’s horrid isn’t it. I accepted at 9dpo it was a negative month and it then makes it easier but from ov till I get that negative I’m on tender hooks

@Diasy31980 yes this is what I'm saying. I'm not testing now till and if I missed my first cycle and the test shouts pregnant because this is driving me mentally ill... I got a pic of my test a minute after testing and I'm sure I can see it but it's a squinter x

Everything crossed for you. I’ve had an indent a frer today. I’m of the opinion now that if I have to look that hard (on mine) then in BFN. My 3 pregnancies (2 losses 1 live) have all been clear and dark straight away. I remember the 1 year of trying between loss 1 and my boy 8 years ago looking for that line and it not being there. Then when it was boy it was.

i really hope yours get darker and darker.
