A line eye enthusiast #2

@humanwinginglife hi, I'm sorry but I don't see any line there but I'm sure there'll be others more clued up coming along.

I tested positive last weekend and with me I felt like there was a squinty line and my partner was absolutely like there is NO line at all. I looked again and was like yep he's right, no line.

Then we went for dinner, came back, the test had a proper line with colour.
Confirmed with 2 further tests and a clearblue.

So it could be that there's a line but so faint that it's only visible in person. But equally I don't want to get your hopes up. It is HARD when it's all you want isn't it. You end up going crazy.
Really hope you get your BFP soon.

Hi ladies, me again!

14DPO today and do unfortunately feel like AF may be on her way (due on tomorrow) with mild cramping and zero pregnancy symptoms.

Nonetheless, I'll keep testing until AF shows just in case. This is this mornings albeit 3rd pee of the day 😐 I do feel like I can see a shadow but I think I may be wishful thinking?!

A pack of FRER are due today so wondering whether it's worth taking one? But then if I'm just seeing things I don't want to waste them!

How are you all? Thanks OP for making this thread, it helps so much!

Looks negative from my eyes I'm afraid. But implantation can take place as late as 12DPO, following which it can time for hcg to build in body. In translation, could still happen.

@Confusedddddddd I think I see something faint! Annoying you have no more tests - definitely try and get one tomorrow.

@humanwinginglife I'm so sorry but I can't see anything - doesn't mean there isn't though. It's always harder to see on a camera!

11DPO test... I think I see something?! Or am I going crazy?!

HNY everyone ♥️

I posted about this on another thread.
Last night (9dpo) I took a test to double check defo not pregnant before having a few drinks for new years. Stark white negative. Felt like really rubbish this morning - more than just from a few drinks and less sleep. Dug out test from last night. There's a line. Probably an evap, and of course I'm out of sensitive tests and nothing is open, so can't retest. Also I'm cramping as if AF is about to come, so probably is nothing.

The line is pink in person

Thanks for your reply! @bubballoo a line showed after 10 mins so bit the bullet and did a clearblue and it's come up pregnant!

@TTCnewbies they have different sensitivities. Boots early is 10mIu/ml and clear and simple is 20mIu/ml. I.e. you'd need double the amount of HCG to get a positive. HCG should be doubling (or min *1.6) every 48 hours. All being well it might take a couple more days to see a positive on a clear & simple.

And this is a reminder of my test on Sat

What do people think of the clear and simple tests?

I posted here on Sat, I had 2 lines on a boots test. Everyone said BFP. Clearly colour in them. I've just done a cheap clear and simple test strip and it's stark white. I'd have thought there'd be a little line given it's been over 2 days since I had a seemingly BFP. It wasn't first morning urine. It was after 3 hours hold.

Congratulations @Jeffe :) yes like @Amy259 said due stealer! Glad everything is going well with you @Amy259

@humanwinginglife I'm sorry, I can't see anything but then I'm currently in the midst of a 2 year old birthday bash and I think my brain is malfunctioning generally 😂

I'm not sure if I see anything today... I can't decide 🤣

9DPO today

DPO buddies 🙌

I definitely see a 'something' on yours 🤞

Congratulations! Looks very positive

Congratulations to all the bfps! 5+3 at this end too 🤞🏻♥️

@Jeffe that test is upside down, right? So it’s a big dye stealer already?! Congratulations!

@Jeffe no mistaking that line! Congratulations 🎉 😊🤩

Waaa! I got this this morning!
Am on day 48 of cycle, I think ovulation was delayed for about 2 weeks due to taking pregnacare conception. So I was testing and got loads of BFN around 2-3 weeks ago when AF was due, then haven't tested for ages just been waiting for my cycle to start again (and sacked off pregnacare). I just tested today after I had some vivid dreams and something made me test. Been trying for 12 months this December so I am stunned and daren't believe it!

Ahh so exciting to see even more bfps! Congratulations @Holl89 and @TTCnewbies . Let's hope these help start a trend!

I agree with @ThelastRolo20, I have lost my temper about @Outliers posts before but I don't think they mean any harm. Just being rational in let's face it an irrational time for most of us as we really all want our bfps :)

@Confusedddddddd I see something incredibly faint on yours! I have everything crossed that it's stronger tomorrow/ the day after ❤️

@Outliers comments on most conception threads and is incredibly to the point and factual. I'm sure they're not meaning to be negative, just hoping to manage expectations. I believe 7DPO can be possible (either due to ovulation estimation - as you say there's a 24/36 hour window when the egg pops so hard to pinpoint!).

Please keep us updated 😊

There's nothing negative about facts. I actually think it's more negative and torturous that people exclaim they see line on apparently negative.

Re your question, on 8DPO, I'm actually saying the opposite. Even if one observes a faint line, the accuracy of the result is very low until 12DPO onwards.

We can agree to disagree, test to your heart's content. In any case, I genuinely hope it turns out to be BFP. Good luck

@Outliers so you're saying at 23:59 at 7dpo you would test negative and 00:01at 8dpo you would suddenly have a faint line?

You can implant anytime from 5dpo, though most implant 7-8 dpo. Not every egg implants at the same time. And ovulation takes places anytime during the 24 hours of ovulation day. Therefore it is not 100% impossible. It might just be 0.5% possible or 1% but not 0%.

As I said it's very unlikely that was a real line and most likely an indent. However on the evening of 7dpo is within the tiniest realms of possibility. So please spread your negativity elsewhere.

Looks positive to me

@Holl89 @TTCnewbies I also see lines! Test again in a day or so and keep us updated 😊
