Sorry, I can't see a line. Try again with fmu? Best of luck Flowers

Didyeaye · 21/09/2013 00:48

Thanks daley. I might sound a bit nuts, but I know it's positive! I made a couple of poor unsuspecting workmates check it today and prove to me i wasnt being a crazy wummin! Will test again with FMU tho. Thank u.

Nope, I'm sorry but I can't see a line either. Good luck though!

YorkshireTeaDrinker · 21/09/2013 09:26

No line. How many dpo are you?

VJONES1985 · 21/09/2013 09:28

Sorry, can't see a line!

Didyeaye · 21/09/2013 09:48

Thanks all! I've put another pic on from this morning, inverted. Maybe you can let me know if I'm really going mad?! Grin

YTD, I don't know for sure as have had irregular cycles since I stopped the pill in December. I'm at CD32 of an average 33 days, but has been as long as over 50. I easy even gonna test this cycle until after day 50 but have had really sore boobs n tingly nipples the last few days so tested....but still no clearer haha. Perhaps it's just a bit early?

I still can't see a line, I'm afraid!

Gingerandcocoa · 21/09/2013 09:55

Sorry, can't see a line. Maybe you can retest in a couple of days?

YorkshireTeaDrinker · 21/09/2013 10:57

Still no line. If you are averaging 33 days it is prob too early to tell. For both my BFPs I only got a BFP when a couple of days over my average cycle length. Sometimes you need to wait to be late. However, I completely understand wanting to POAS every day until AF finally arrives and stops the madness. That's what Internet cheapies are for!

ShowOfHands · 21/09/2013 11:03

It's often possible to see very faint lines and them not show up on a camera but I definitely can't see anything in those pictures.

I'm afraid we can't answer your question and all you can do is test again in a few days.

Have you had why your cycles are so irregular investigated? If you aren't pregnant this month, I'd suggest a quick trip to the GP. Assuming, you haven't already had a diagnosis or reason for such irregularity.

Didyeaye · 21/09/2013 11:25

Haha YTD I ran out of ICs last month n thought I wouldn't need them for another couple of weeks so haven't ordered them! Boooooo.

Show - but you have answered my question which realistically was can u see the line! Thanks Smile. I've only been off the pill since dec n my cycles have been 31,33,36,38,28, 50 odd then this one at 32 days so far- is that really that irregular? I just assumed it was settling back and that the 50 odd day one I just had not ovulated for one month. Do u think its worth a trip to the GP then?

Thanks again!

Really sorry but i can't see a line either but with my 1st lo the line on test was very faint and i don't think a camera would have picked it up.I even had to get my dp to check it as i wasn't sure if i was imagining it or not.Good luck Smile

nappyaddict · 22/09/2013 22:43

I would test at maybe 40 days if you've had cycles as long as 38 and 50 days.

nappyaddict · 22/09/2013 23:14

BTW you should ask your GP to refer you to a gynae to investigate your irregular cycles. A "normal" cycle is a cycle length of between 21 and 35 days. Long cycles often mean that there are associated ovulation problems that should be investigated sooner rather than later if you are TTC so they can be treated.

Didyeaye · 23/09/2013 19:40

Thanks nappy. I guess you're right and u I should go to the doctor, suppose I just believed the 'it takes a while for your cycle to settle after the pill advice'. I'd been on it for 12 years with only a short break so you're right, there could gave been underlying issues that I don't know about as they were masked by the pill! Thanks everyone for taking the time to reply, I will test again at day 50 and of negative then will book to see the GP!

I'm at CD 41. Not testing til CD 70 (my longest cycle yet) as I am sure I have just missed another period.

nappyaddict · 30/09/2013 15:11

What CD are you on now Didyeaye?

Didyeaye · 30/09/2013 19:49

Hi nappy

CD3 Blush looks like I was imagining it after all!

How about you? Is that day 46 for u now? Still holding off from POASing?

OP posts:
nappyaddict · 02/10/2013 14:48
