POAnything? Symptom Spotting?

[LastOneDancing]

Welcome to the thread for TTCers who track too much, spot to much and use most of our expendable income in Internet Cheapies.

Cycle 5 or 55 we don't care this is a place for your hopeful twaddle and necessary pre-conception ranting.

Loving your attempt at 'not' symptom sporting fatty!

Lod, I thought you had to wait five minutes before you read? I was in the staff toilet (with terrible lighting) and was watching it. I thought I saw a faint line with about 1.5 min to go. I told my fiancé and then went back to my room to take the pics, so those were probably five minutes after.

I was going to with fmu but it looked really pale and dilute so I just held it till now and tried again!

This is a worse photo but it's from maybe 5 min 10-20 seconds.

I see the line

Apologies ... I wanted to join

kez
Age: 28
Ttc: number 1
Cycle: 11
Due to test: already have, 3 times AF was due yesterday and still no show. Don't even feel like she's coming to visit - no usual cramps or anything. All tests so far have been negative so I'm in limbo at the moment.

Symptoms so far have been:
On/off mild nausea
Headache last night (what?! - I don't get headaches )
Twinges to the left (this happened early last week and again today)
Tiredness
Boobages have lovely veiny-ness going on and nipolatas have been sore (although that doesn't seem as bad now).

Hate being in limbo like this!

Welcome newbies lizzy I must say we are having a lucky month on this thread! Congratulations! Remember - a line is a line and a negative is very blank!!

I'll update and post lost when I get home. Massive problems with hmrc messing up again. Trying to let it wash over me but our house we live in and are buying could be at risk. Nothing but problems with them since Jan and now another problem! Bank aren't happy. It's hard enough to get a mortgage as it is without all this! Coupled with this I'm hormonal and exhausted

Chelle, I'm just nervous now I did it wrong. I texted my dh just as there were about 30 seconds left in the five minutes, but my first photo was not until 2 min later. Is that likely to be an evaporation line?

Lizzy, I see a line! Congrats :-) what time limit do the instructions say, you may be within it?

The instructions say hold it in for 5 seconds and then wait 5 minutes. No max time is given. I double checked my phone (because I'm nuts?) and I texted dh to say I might see a faint line with about 30 sec left in the 5 min, then took the photos about 2-4 min later.

I'll post a pic of my first test later, when I get home. I've been trying to attach it but its not working. You had to hold it at a certain angle and squint just a little

Congratulations liz that looks like a line to me

Thanks ladies. I'm so scared I've just done it wrong or imagined it, I'm going to assume it's just an error until it's confirmed! I may have just bought two more types for a total of four and going to try them all now before the doc!

lizzy! Sorry don't panic my lovely. I didn't mean to make you worry I feel awful xxx

If you go back to a test after a while you sometimes get an evap line. I meant (and should have said) 'just checking - you didn't go back after 30 minutes and see the line did you?'

You were there and saw it appear well within the test that you use time so don't give it a second thought.

Do not listen to interferring internet nobheads (me).

No, you were totally right to mention it Lod! Thank you, it's much better to be realistic. But I went and bought three other brands, took them all. The internet cheap one was negative this time, but frer, superdrug and clearblue digital were positive! 1-2 weeks pregnant, according to clearblue!!! I'm so so excited! And maybe a bit foolish to have worried we wouldn't get pregnant but the doctor did say when he told me I had pcos that we could always use IVF!

Oh brilliant news Lizzy!

I'm so pleased for you

And also an interesting unofficial consumer test on pregnancy tests for everyone else

I know I shouldn't get too excited before twelve weeks but I'm so excited!

When I got pregnant first time around Lizzy I decided to enjoy it from the very start as much as I possibly could, so even if - god forbid - something went wrong, it would have been a happy time IYKWIM?

I know that way of thinking doesn't work for everyone, but if you want to enjoy this amazing day, go for it

this site needs a like button!!!

im a FBaholic and i spend ages on here reading stuff that makes me smile or feel happy, looking for the damn like button, so I can let people know Im happy with them or for them!

congrats Lizzy!

Congratulations Lizzy

I planned on joining this thread last night. Today at 3.30am I got a very faint BFP, 14dpo, AF due Friday! I couldn't sleep having been dreaming about negative tests.

I was about to chuck it in the bin after about 4 mins bc wanted to go to bed and I thought there was a line. Commence squinting and tilting. Photo is from 10 minutes, probably about 5 mins after first noticed line. These tests are valid up to 10 minutes. It's stronger than it was at first. Now just hoping I brew enough for another test at 7.30.

I cannot sleep!! Symptoms wise, I didn't have any this month!

Me: 28 and DH 28
TTC #1, cycle 4
BFP? 14/07/14
EDD 23/03/16, which is v close to a couple of the others!

Just so scared and anxious I've got it wrong, which is why I can't sleep!

mrspcr it's a good positive. Congratulations

lizzy my first test pic as promised from last Thurs...

You can see such a crazy ridiculously light line

Thanks Chelle and congrats to you too! I've done another one since and it's not quite as strong due to it not being fmu but line was definitely there 4 mins in!
