I'm now 4 days late for AF and after a negative PT 3 days ago I did another yesterday morning only to just about throw in the bin when I saw a very faint line... didn't get time to buy a better quality test before my night shift to see if it was true so did another a few hours later of the same cheap amazon ones and this time I think I see a bit more of a line? I'm going crazy wondering on my shift that I though I'd put the question out there... has anyone else had this with cheap stick tests only to not be BFP? I'm a pretty regular 28 day cycle and today is CD32... hmmm

I had a questionable cheapie then a digital clearnlue confirmed it in black and white! DS is 2 in Dec Grin

I did a test on Tuesday when I was three days late, negative.

Did another one yesterday as was 8 days late and to my utter shock it was positive!! Very dark line which appeared immediately.

It may just be too soon. Give it another day or two and try again

Fingers crossed xx

Thanks ladies, i just got home and did another test, this time I'm really really squinting hard to see if there's a line?! Not sure if I'm just getting my hopes up now Sad

Still with cheapies? Get to the shops for an early response and use first thing per tomorrow! Good luck Thanks

Pondering1 · 29/07/2018 15:11

*first thing morning pee that should say!

CD33 now (I'm always 28 without fail) so 5 days late, still no AF and another faint line on a dippy stick. BFN on a coop one. My amazon delivery of first response arrives 1st August... aaagh this is killing me not knowing!!!

I bet!!! To be fair, even when I had confirmed my wee one and had a scan at 6 weeks, the cheapies were still giving super faint lines that would disappear when they dried up. Let us know how it goes with the first response!!!

kisses4u · 30/07/2018 11:21

Will do!
I did look at the sensitivity of the two tests and the coop one is 25 where as the one step cheapy is 10... so I'm hoping this means it's showing on the cheap dippy ones because they are more sensitive?! Here's hoping!!! 🤞

Three days running of very faint lines... the one on the right I just did 5 mins ago. Anyone know why they don't get darker with each day? I'm confused. Everywhere I look says the line should get darker and darker 🤨

That looks positive to me! I'd say they're not getting darker because you're using different concentrations of wee (sounds bizzarre Grin) try holding for a few hours or all night if you can then testing again. I didn't get a clear positive until I was 10 days late (I'm due next month!) x

Pondering1 · 31/07/2018 07:38

They are exactly how my cheapies looked. I'd say congratulations are in order 😃

Pondering1 · 31/07/2018 07:39

Not getting darker as they are crap! There's a reason they are so cheap!

Icklepup · 31/07/2018 07:42

Positive!

kisses4u · 31/07/2018 07:44

Thanks for your thoughts ladies! I have a two pack frer arriving in the post any day now. I'm still not convinced and hubby is really unconvinced. Only because with DS we got a very strong +ve when I was only 1 day late and even then he asked the MW at our first app how accurate these tests were (I'd done 3 by this point) 😂 so I think a combination of having him in my ear and the lines between by so faint is making me doubtful... I guess I'll know by week 6 tho as I suffered really badly last time with sickness to the point I was admitted to the EPU for fluids! 🙈

My internet cheapies never got any darker than that. Hope all goes well for you Flowers

Desmondo2016 · 31/07/2018 11:32

They're not even faint!!!

kisses4u · 31/07/2018 19:47

Thank you! FRER arrived in the post today so I'm super excited to see what it brings with tomorrow's FMU. I think that will have me finally convinced then

kisses4u · 01/08/2018 21:59
