@humanwinginglife I’m so sorry, it’s the most frustrating thing waiting for a period so you can just get on with the next cycle. Those easy@home tests came with my LH tests and all 10 had faint second lines when I most definitely wasn’t pregnant. I’ve used them before and they were reliable but definitely not this time round 💔

Beth191 · 17/11/2023 20:51

@humanwinginglife I'm sure there's a line on that picture of a test on its own though

Beth191 · 17/11/2023 20:49

@humanwinginglife so frustrating!! Do you have any other types of test? Maybe you've got a bad batch of the ones your using? If not I'd maybe think about calling the GP by 8 days late with negative tests to see if they'll do a blood test x

humanwinginglife · 17/11/2023 19:42

FFS. What the actual heck is going on. I FEEL pregnant, period 8 days late (but could well be wrong from my first time using OPK's last month), I'm either 22DPO or 17DPO. No sign of AF. Tests are erratic, either a shadow, stark white or the occasional VFL. Surely at either of these DPO it would be obvious on a test???

I actually don't know what to do anymore and I'm sorry, I know I'm a grown woman but WTF! I'm tired of this now. If I'm going to bleed just please for the love of anything let me bleed, if I'm pregnant, why on earth isn't it showing consistently and enough for me to KNOW?! And if it's neither, what on earth is going on?

Sorry ladies, just needed a to rant I guess 😭

@BostonTerrierMum23 thank you for the welcome. Absolutely, it’s so hard. My DH found it pretty difficult last time too but he’s doing well to stay quite upbeat so far..

@HopingForBabyOne funnily enough after posting my comment earlier I decided just to test today (13dpo, all bfn) with wondflo and have a very faint pink line like yours. I haven’t had that the rest of this month, they’ve all been white, but it’s too late to be as faint as it is so it must be a false positive.

BostonTerrierMum23 · 17/11/2023 17:41

@cth96 I think I might also

HopingForBabyOne · 17/11/2023 17:24

BostonTerrierMum23 · 17/11/2023 17:21

@cth96 I didn't even think to complain tbh. Was gutted my lines weren't progressing as I tested early I thought it could just be really faint

I think I might complain. I checked Amazon and there are a bunch of one star reviews saying there were false positives so we clearly aren’t the only ones!

@HopingForBabyOne I've had issues this month with wondfo, it's so frustrating

Yeah, it’s really frustrating! I got someone else to dip and theirs was negative but I still think they must be false positives since everything els3 is negative. Have you complained to the company? I think it’s awful that they can give so many false positives to people who are obviously really wanting to be pregnant!

Whoops sorry, it changed my username!

@HopingForBabyOne I'm not sure I can see a line sorry

Okay, thank you so much! It must be false positives then. Beware Wondfo!!

BostonTerrierMum23 · 17/11/2023 17:03

@Amy259 ttc is possibly the hardest thing I've experienced emotionally, every month I'm cycling through emotions thinking this is it we are going to get a bfp then the downs of seeing a bfn. Having the support of these threads is what gets me through :) hope you get your bfp soon :)

HopingForBabyOne · 17/11/2023 15:57

Hi everyone. A little update! I’m still getting really faint lines on strips but not on actual pregnancy tests. Very strange! Can you see a reeeeeeeallly faint line on the blue strips? Or just the pink? I thought they might be bad batches of pink but I’m sure I can see something in person on the blue too.

@MrBigsCat from 8dpo 😂 I got a bfp with my first the evening of 9dpo so I just can’t help myself from testing early. I stop testing around 12dpo though and just wait for AF, and I’m 13dpo today.

MrBigsCat · 17/11/2023 14:44

Amy259 · 17/11/2023 14:14

Hi all, do you mind if I join please? I feel like I’ve found my people..

Ttc number 2, on cycle 2/3 with af due around now. Number 1 is 16mo and took 13m to conceive. I promised myself I’d try not to torture myself with tests, Googling, forums etc this time
but it’s impossible to magically forget everything from the first time. Cycle 1 felt like cycle 10 already with just knowing all the emotions etc.

Ttc took its toll on us last time so quite nervous going into it all again. But here I am still poas at 8dpo each month and squinting next to a lightbulb 🫠

Hey welcome! Have you tested this month?

i see something there. I have had a shadow on this brand before though that turned out to be nothing.
are you testing today?

OP posts:
BostonTerrierMum23 · 16/11/2023 22:52

@RightNowRightHere I can see the line but not sure if it's an indent or bfp. How many days till AF? Might be worth testing closer to when she arrives to see if line progresses?

@humanwinginglife I really hope this is your bfp!
I'm Kind of glad that AF is here fed up of squinting at tests 😂 my mind can have a break for a week before I drive myself Crazy again

MrBigsCat · 16/11/2023 20:18

@humanwinginglife i know how you feel. The limbo is much worse that the definitive ‘no’
your mind is literally in turmoil and you go through having a little hope then not.
in saying that I can’t promise I won’t be testing on Monday at 7dpo 🙈

It's awful. I'd rather the definitive no if that's the case! Put me out of my misery... IYKWIM

I'd like to say "don't do it!!" But then I'd be a hypocrite! Everything crossed for you!

I think if this turns all out to be nothing for me, I'll need a bit of a break 😔

I have and still no more than a shadow. I feel utterly yuck. Still no AF and feel hugely pregnant. It's just not fair, I want to know 😭
