Boobs hurting, I think I see a line. Dh had the snip.

[LineTroubles]

My breasts have been really sore for about a week now. My cycles are regulari(ish) 28-31 days. I'm on day 32. Had a massive tantrum about nothing this morning. Thought I'd go for a rummage in the cupboard for an old test and just double check even though dh was acting like I 'd lost my mind. Test expired in 2016! Google says false negatives a risk with expired tests but positives less so.

Dh couldn't see it but he has literally only ever seen the line in the first week once in 5 pregnancies. Popped out and bought a cheapy in the afternoon and it was a very obvious negative but I'm still concerned and still not menstruating.

Thoughts? Can you see it? It's a shit picture and I can only barely see it on the photo but I know people are experts here at the POAS squint.

Dh had a vasectomy because we really don't want any more children.

I can see something but is it an evaporation line?

Get a first response. Expensive but worth it.

I can see it too. I'd test again in the morning. Hope you're not feeling too panicky.

I can see a line....It looks like mine first did when I tested but then the poster one did say pregnant...

I see it. Sorry.

Posher not poster..bloody autocorrect

Evaporation lines are usually greyish. Can you see any colour in it?

Yes, vasectomies can spontaneously reverse but it's rare. F you want to check, places like Marie Stopes wil, do one-off testing to see if he's still clear.

I swear the man has line blindness. Tbf he was never forced to look at the 10,000 negative pee sticks I looked at while trying.

It's pink. I didn't realise vap lines were grey.

Yeah. I can see a line too, I think.

Good luck OP. I hope it turns out to be the outcome you want.

Thank you, do you happen to know if they're free? Even if this turns out to be a chemical (please hope) I guess he needs to be checked.

When was he sterilised??

2 years ago? Something like that. We aren't in the risky months just after it.

No, not free. I've just googled and it's £40 at Marie Stopes (£30 if they did the vasectomy)

That looks quite positive to me, but hope it ends up the result you want! Vasectomies can fail, but fingers crossed.

Thank you Scaveola . £40 is worth it.

Can you pop and get a first response test?

I was already to come I with tales of how I was constantly paranoid about pregnant just after my husbands snip but that test does look faintly positive to me. Hope things work out for the best. Good luck

Dh is out at the moment and I've asked him to grab a test. I'll take it first thing in the am

It's been one of those years where a shock unwanted pregnancy seems almost to be expected.

Oh. I didn't at first but now I can definitely see a line on each picture.

Fingers crossed it works out for you lass.

If that's an internet cheapy I wouldn't trust it. I've had false negatives from them more than once. Get a first response, that will tell you everything you need to know. I hope you get the outcome you want.

You can’t rely on any result from a test 2 years after its expiry date, positive or negative.

Conception after vasectomy (assuming he had 2 negative semen results) is rare but potentially possible.

If the in date new test is positive then you’ll know for sure, but until then don’t panic.

Fingers crossed it's just a dodgy test.
However a friend of mine had a 4th VERY unexpected baby 4 years after her DH had the snip. His tubes had indeed reconnected! But it really is rare for that to happen!

First response was negative so I'm going to try again tomorrow. Dh got three!
