A squinter...

Been ttc no 2 since August so I may be getting a bit carried away.

I'm only 10dpo but have tested the last few day on ic tests. (I know, I know!)

Just got this this morning, but it was after about 10 minutes and I was just about to throw it away.

I've been using ic's for ages and never ever have had an evaporation line before. Also when I was pg with DS the first line I got was after about 10 mins so AIBU to be getting my hopes up now?

Could this be it?

I can see a line but if it's after the 3 minutes then I wouldn't 100% trust it - although looks like a good sign! Test again in a few days to be sure

That's a line. My positive IC test was BFN after a few minutes and was fished out of the bin a few hours later as I knew I was pregnant. It was more of a squinter than yours!

Can you get a pink dye early test today (FRER or Superdrug)?

Hippychic79 · 14/02/2017 07:27

I can see it and it sounds promising ..., I'd go and get a frer xxx gl xx

Yes definitely get a super drug or FRER test. I got a super faint line with DD1 at 9DPO and that lunch time bought 2 super drug tests, did another later that day and got another very faint line, did another the next morning and line was stronger.
Good luck!

Yeah I'm going into town later, I was going to stock up on some Poundland ones, but I might invest in a FR.

Eek, I'm trying so hard not to get too excited but it's hard. Don't know whether to tell DH when he gets up or wait until I've had a more conclusive result.

Thanks for the replies.

Arghh I'm too impatient. I did a Superdrug early response test and it was bfn Sad
Well I took it apart and there was the faintest shadow of a line which may have been an evap so I'm not counting it.

It was a pack of 2 so I'll try agin in the morning. I think I may have gotten my hopes up too early this morning Sad

Superdrug tests aren't the most reliable, I'd only use a FRER and then maybe a CB digi after getting a decent line on a FRER.

MissClarke86 · 14/02/2017 12:47

You need a FRER.

I only went into Superdrug, they didn't have any FR. All is not lost then. I still feel hopeful about my IC test this morning. I just need to wait a couple of days I think before testing again. As DH will tell me. He told me not to test agin today but did I listen?!
