I can see lines on both! Congratulations @LW678 and @JNicko

JNicko · 04/04/2024 18:21

@soymilknosugar thank you...I'm not getting too excited yet. After my past Iv learnt to take each day at a time. I was also told by gynae consultant if I get a positive test to call EPAU. So I will give it a few days (if I get that far).

JNicko · 04/04/2024 18:20

@LW678 yes I can see yours too! Looks very similar to mine.🤞🏼

These cheapies are actually quite good I think they are as sensitive as FRERs

@soymilknosugar I am keeping everything crossed. After 2 miscarriages this baby is longed for!!! I just hope tomorrow morning the line is darker! Are you tempted to test yet?

Just done a couple more tests and I think I can see a very very faint line.

I'm using Premom cheapies but if I feel I see something I generally get a FRER to confirm. But Premom are very similar to easy@home. I think they are pretty reliable

Plantpott · 04/04/2024 15:40

I'm using easy@home too. They're so cheap that I don't feel back about early and repeated testing! I've got some clear blue digitalis stashed away for confirmation if I do get a positive on these.

@LW678 me too and boobs still sore. They have been for 3/4 days now though. Getting impatient! The last few days have felt about a month long🤣

@LW678 think I’ll order some! How you feeling today?

LW678 · 04/04/2024 13:21

@soymilknosugar yes from Amazon, cheap as chips! Which is sometimes a bad thing as I go through far too many!

OP posts:
soymilknosugar · 04/04/2024 13:18

@LW678 do you get them online? Yes heard horrible things about clear blue so avoiding them at all costs!

LW678 · 04/04/2024 13:16

@soymilknosugar easy@home. I’ve never used an FRER but have used clear blue which have given me false positives before so I do not trust them

soymilknosugar · 04/04/2024 13:14

@Plantpott @JNicko @LW678 what tests are we all using? For my last pregnancy I swore by FRERs but have heard on here that they’re being discontinued and only available on Amazon - and even then people have mixed reviews! Wondering whether to risk it!! I used a boots early one yesterday but I feel like the control line itself was quite faint and took ages to come up so not a big fan of those

Ditto @JNicko

@soymilknosugar I'm the same! I tested this morning and convinced I can see a shadow but I could just be imagining it.

@Plantpott hopefully within the next few days you’ll see a proper line! I’m 9dpo today and completely negative

OP posts:
Plantpott · 04/04/2024 09:35

@soymilknosugar thanks. I thought I was 9dpo today based on symptoms but the premom app says 8 from my uploaded tests so now I'm not sure. I did a test this morning and convinced myself there was a hint of a line for a while but I think it was more wishful thinking than there actually being anything there!

Has anyone else tested today?

soymilknosugar · 03/04/2024 20:01

@JNicko thanks lovely I hope so!

JNicko · 03/04/2024 19:51

@soymilknosugar sorry I didn't see your test! Iv just had a look and I agree looks like a faint shadow I think. Fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼

soymilknosugar · 03/04/2024 19:49

@Plantpott oo thank you for taking a look, I hope so!🤞 how many dpo are you? Hope you feel better soon!
