Probably not, but...

TTC number 2 for 14 months now. DPO 9, which makes me think this isn’t a line as it’s early. Don’t want to take a FRER as it’ll probably be negative and I’ll just be sad again! I can’t even tell you if it came up in the timeframe as I’m so used to POAS that I just left it and came back after I’d had my shower...

Any way. What do you think?

I've only ever used cheapies and got a positive way earlier than I expected. I think perhaps I ovulated earlier than I'd thought. (I bulk buy so I can obsessively urinate on sticks from about 5dpo...!).

Anyway, looks like congratulations are in order!

I'm definitely seeing lines, not even having to squint! X

You won’t need to wait with lines like that

MaverickSnoopy · 14/05/2018 17:34

I took at least 10 of those in my current pregnancy and all my lines looked just like that up until 1 day after my missed period, when it became much stronger. If it turns out you're not pregnant I'd be surprised. A line is a line.

L1zz13 · 14/05/2018 18:00

I agree. A line is a line. Those ic are just as good as the rip off clearblue in my opinion.
Plus an evaporation lines occurs when the strip has dried not whilst it's still wet surely!

Pudding01 · 14/05/2018 18:52

I definitely see a line on the last one! Fingers crossed for you

Mrstobe90 · 14/05/2018 23:13

I can see something! Hope you get a cleared bfp :)

Nothing on FRER. Gutted to say the least. I’m never getting ICs again...

Aw I'm sorry, test again in a few days of period doesn't arrive xx

SaturdaySauv · 15/05/2018 08:04

I had exactly your experience. My IC went straight in the bin.

They shouldn’t be allowed to sell the bloody things 😢

I've got an hcg of 36 post mc from March. Had blood test last week.
My IC is showing bfp!
Hang on in there. 🤞🏻

Those cheap strips are so misleading and hard to read!

It's easy to say but honestly I wouldn't bother testing to AF is due.

This is one I done two days before AF was due (I know ignored my own advice) - it took ages to show and I didn't trust it one bit.

I bought them as they are cheap but they cause so much stress as is really easy to flood/ get Evaps.

Good luck hope you get your BFP in a few days x x

Peachy92 · 16/05/2018 11:38

@pPsychologika Did you test with your FR? If AF is late it should show on that no matter what time of the day etc. Keeping all crossed for you x

Period has just started. I’m so fed up of it all. Feels very unfair.

OP posts:

L1zz13 · 16/05/2018 12:18

@Psychologika so sorry love x

Patienceofatoddler · 16/05/2018 15:26

@Psychologika So sorry!

Kentishgal · 16/05/2018 15:44

Sorry to hear that - I had a similar thing with those IC last month - perhaps a dodgy batch been produced lately? It really gets your hopes up. That said...I stupidly still ordered more this month
