I’m sorry, but is this a faint line?

Can anyone see a line? I can, then I can’t. Due period about 2 days ago, but it’s not unusual for it to be erratic.

I can see a line on the negative but it's very little. I'd be inclined to wait a few days and do a different test.

Best of luck to you!

Afreshcuppateaplease · 24/01/2018 16:37

Any more news op

Birdie963 · 24/01/2018 16:39

Thinking of you OP!!

SnowGoArea · 24/01/2018 16:43

What an excruciating wait for you.

Would you have it in you to leave it for a couple of days before testing again? Probably a silly question!

Nomorecakes · 24/01/2018 16:58

I did a first response and negative 😩
I was sick this avo with the stomach pain so I have not a clue what’s going on. But the fact that is a neg test I suppose that’s the end of that. I wish I had better news to give.

Oh I'm so sorry! Flowers I hope the pain goes away soon!

wishfulthinker81 · 24/01/2018 17:08

How many dpo are you? Xxx

My last proper period started 18th December, then this odd bleed came on Saturday. I’m usually about the 28 days so that made it about 5 days late at 33 days. I know some people get late positives but I think a FRER would have showed by now. It’s just so frustrating because the faint line in the first test then the very faint lines on the Tesco tests.

I'm sorry the result was negative Thanks

wishfulthinker81 · 24/01/2018 19:20

Mine was 22nd Dec but then I had 4 days of weird spotting/bleeding roughly a week after ovulation. I've had multiple negative tests because I started testing too soon and then I got two very very faint lines. I took a first response rapid test today and it was negative yet no af. I'm not giving up until af arrives because my previous pregnancies have had bleeding so I don't see why my next would be "normal". I hope you do retest in a couple of days and get a positive xxx

Nomorecakes · 24/01/2018 19:49

Aah Wishful I’ll keep everything crossed you get your BFP soon as well.
I have one last FRER in the cupboard and I’ll see what happens. I’ll probably test again in a few days just to be absolutely sure. Still cramps which are making me feel very sick, but painkillers are helping. Just going to get an early night with a hot water bottle.
Thank you everyone for your help. I really appreciate it. And if I have a miracle I will let you all know. Xxx

I had terrible cramps that woke me up on the night until 7-8 weeks. Hot water bottle helped me. Be careful with painkillers, you're only allowed paracetamol when pregnant. Definitely no ibuprofen!!

positiveprincess · 31/01/2018 14:16

Any updates? 😍😍😍

Nomorecakes · 31/01/2018 23:46

I’m in limbo!
I stopped testing after the FRER was negative. But my belly cramps have been excruciating. I have had terrible one sided pain so I managed to get a phone appointment with the GP on Monday who asked me to come in Tuesday. But she asked me to take another year to be sure. So I tested Tuesday morning before the appointment and it came up with the clearest positive I have had, but still not a ‘in your face BFP!’
The GP did one in the surgery which was negative. And without swabbing or doing a blood test concluded I must have a pelvic infection and wrote me a prescription for antibiotics.
I haven’t started taken them, I am at a loss as to what to do??? The pain has eased today but the pain yesterday was so bad it woke me up and I thought I was having an appendicitis! It comes and goes and is not constant. I at one point thought ectopic but I have no more bleeding. I’m desperate as I don’t feel like I can go back to the GP.

I think you should make an appointment with a different dr and if anything is said just say the receptionist booked it 😜🤣 Trust your gut Hun. Bloods should've been done!! I'm on cd41 and got bloods done today as I'm only getting bfn and frers with suspected evap lines.
Keep me posted, good luck!! Xxx

huha · 01/02/2018 05:50

Post a pic of the most recent positive OP!!

GetUpAndGoGone · 01/02/2018 06:38

Go back to the Dr, OP - it doesn't sound right. Flowers

PeonyTruffle · 01/02/2018 06:55

Back to the GP and see a different doctor.
Hope you get to the bottom of it all OP x

Nomorecakes · 01/02/2018 12:56

huhu I took the test to my appointment to show the GP and left it there! I’m kicking myself coz i keep looking at my pictures of tests in a really unhealthy way!
raraa that sounds really frustrating. Fingers crossed the blood test gives you a clear answer.
I’m at work just now and I work next door to a pharmacy but I’m too embarrassed to get more tests 😂 she must think I’m mad.

Nomorecakes · 01/02/2018 23:35

Why is this happening?!?!?!?

I’m sorry, but is this a faint line?
OP posts:
Nomorecakes · 01/02/2018 23:57

I mean it’s so faint again. I took it then jumped in the shower so was read at between 10-15 minutes. Evap line?

OP posts:
NoseringGirl · 02/02/2018 00:04

That's got too much colour to be an evap.
Do you drink loads of water? Maybe your urine is just very diluted so the hcg isn't that concentrated?
I'm pretty convinced there's hcg there as these are positive tests!

goodyzoe · 02/02/2018 00:11

You need to go to the doc again, tell them you got another positive.

It could be an ectopic pregnancy.

Nomorecakes · 02/02/2018 00:18

If anything I don’t drink enough water.
The pain has been shooting from my hip to my groin today and the more I’m reading the more I think it could be ectopic. I’ve had pelvic inflammatory twice before which increases the chances. But I am lacking any more bleeding. And the pain comes and goes, like I was ok yesterday, but sore today. This is really messing my head.

raraa · 02/02/2018 01:24

@Nomorecakes I got word back from my bloods, all negative so the tests I was getting must've all been evaps xxx
