Hi there I'm new to mumsnet and want people in my position to talk to !... I've been ttc for nearly 2 years. Just done 1st round of clomid, had two big follies on scan and serum progesterone was over 190... Definatly ovulated more than one egg !... I'm approx 12/13dpo and did a tesco test yesterday afternoon, nothing came up straight away but went back to the toilet half hour later and a faint grey/pink line was there .... Put it down to an Evap line and thought I'd do another today ... So I did and another faint line exactly the same came up after about 3-5 mins

Hi Chesty can you post a pic? The first one does sound like an evap but the second seems promising, especially as it was within the timeframe. Fx'd. I conceived my DD on my first round of clomid so hope it works for you :)

I have clomid babies. Amazing drug!!!

Post a pic. Grey is an evaporation line. Pink (no matter how light) is a pregnant line.

Just over a year ago, I got a 'negative' result with a Tesco test. A few minutes later I checked again, and had a fainter than faint line. Now I have a 4 month old DD. Post a photo, i'll post mine for comparison.

Donttellmetorelax · 13/11/2014 09:34

chestylaroo Do another one tomorrow first wee in the morning. And keep us posted.

I'm waiting for AF so I can start my first round of Clomid Grin.

Good luck!

TheOriginalWinkly · 13/11/2014 09:56

This was my fainter than faint tesco positive

Hi OP!
I can't see the pic as I'm on the app, but I had a super feint line with my DD-it got progressively less feint everyday till it was a v clear BFP. They do say that a line is a line, so keeping my fingers crossed for you!
My sis in law got preggo on first cycle with clomid, it really is an amazing drug Smile x

HazleNutt · 13/11/2014 15:10

if this cape up in 3-4 minutes then it's a line.

HazleNutt · 13/11/2014 15:11

came, not cape, obviously.

Bicnod · 13/11/2014 15:14

Looks like a line to me Smile. I had a very very faint line on Tesco but slightly stronger on first response so maybe test again with a first response?

janey1234 · 13/11/2014 15:32

Looks very much like a line to me.
I'm currently pg and with this one and the last, the first time I got a line it was just as pale as that, and got darker over a few days.
There would be NOTHING if there was no HSG, and there's def something... :)

I also forgot to say that my period is not due til between Sunday and Tuesday I don't think tesco are designed to be done early like some... Instructions say from first day period due... I'm also doing progesterone predators so hoping all this effort with clomid and scans and pessaries has not been in vain... I can't let myself get excited due to the chemical I had in August... Now to wait another 2 days before doing another eeeek !!!

They look positive, congrats

NorwaySpruce · 13/11/2014 18:10

I've not had fertility treatment, but I had a test fixation during all of my pregnancies Grin

I distinctly remember testing a few days before my period last time, and the test line was if anything, less clear than Winkleys. The baby was very definitely there! After a few days, the line appeared more quickly, but not necessarily more strongly/visibly.

Conversely, when not pregnant, a line didn't appear, no matter how long I left the test. If the pg hormone isn't there, it isn't there.

If you can see a line, however faint, you're pregnant Grin.

Congratulations!

NorwaySpruce · 13/11/2014 18:11

Just seen your pics, that's a definite line Flowers

Looks exactly like all of mine did.

chestylaroo · 13/11/2014 18:19

I've just got it in my head they are Evaps even though one of them I stood and watched come up after a few minutes ... I do like to torture myself !

OP posts:
NorwaySpruce · 13/11/2014 18:26

I have never, in all of my many pg tests, seen an evap line, even after hours.

If you get a line within 30 minutes, I'd say you've done it Grin

Bicnod · 13/11/2014 18:29

Sorry - didn't clock that the first pic wasn't the OP's.

OP - that looks like a line to me - congratulations Grin

chestylaroo · 13/11/2014 18:40

I've never had an Evap line either before but then I can't say i remember using a tesco test before either... . I'm going to get frer which are Bogof at boots tommorow after work and do one Saturday morning . Thank you ladies I think after last time I just need reassurance x I shall post when done x

I Deffo see lines and if they were mine I'd be saying I was pregnant :) congrats!

MooleyWooleyShamaLamaDingDong · 13/11/2014 19:57

That's def a line; it took ages for any test other than FRERS to get a decent line (I'm currently 7+4). I'd invest in an FRER as they are quite sensitive! But congrats, a line is a line no matter how faint Smile

GingerbreadHead · 13/11/2014 20:26

I would also say line! I just confirmed my very faint lines with a cb digi Smile so congratulations OP!
