Not actually TTC yet (only a few more months to wait, woohoo!) but I've had to change contraception recently and condoms make nervous so I ordered a bulk bag of ICs just for peace of mind.

They arrived this morning and of course I pee'd on one (because I'm a lunatic!). On the stroke of 10 minutes a faint line appeared. So obviously took another (same urine) and the same thing happened.

Held my wee all day and took 2 more. 2 squinter lines both appeared at almost bang on 10 minutes.

Highly sceptical because we've not had unprotected sex this month so to say I felt a bit shocked was an understatement. I only wee'd on it for shits and giggles!

Anyway in my highly sceptical state I decided to dunk one in the sink... Turns out my sink is also pregnant! Hmm

Sure enough I've just started bleeding! Bloody internet cheapies, gah! From now in I will be discarding them after 5 minutes to save myself the horror of evap lines.

The picture is my sinks, albeit very faint, BFP Grin

Lol. I just bought these thinking woe nice and cheap - can do as many as I want. Now I'm thinking :s were they one step ones?

They're ProMatris ones. One Step have always been very accurate for me, I got my BFP with DS1 with them and don't recall any evaps.

I think these are probably fine, just a lesson in only trusting the result if it appears within 10 minutes, I'm going to bin them after 5 minutes from now on that's the sensible plan anyway in reality I'll probably still be holding it up to the light and giving myself line eye after 20 mins

Phew. I'll stick to the one step ones then!

Can't stop laughing at your sink! Grin Brilliant.
