Sorry to post after not posting for so long...I started to find the monthly tracking difficult after so many 'no's'. But I just had a feeling this morning and took a test. My period is only due today, so this is far too early. But I have taken a lot of these damn tests over the last year, and I know what a 'no' looks like. I've never seen anything like a line. So...am I too excited, or is this actually a very faint line? Not a great photo without any daylight...

That's a line! Congratulations!

Pop1234 · 14/02/2019 06:39

Definitely a line!! Congrats x

Lolkittens5 · 14/02/2019 06:39

Looks like a line 😀

I can see a line when I zoom in on my iPad. Give it a week and try again.

I hope all your dreams come true 💐

CaseofEllen · 14/02/2019 06:42

I can see a faint line! Give it a few days and take another test, I really hope this happens for you Thanks

flyingplum · 14/02/2019 06:43

Thanks guys. Other half is in a bloody desert in Egypt for another week 10 days. Though I guess by then if it really is a BFP it will be stronger.

Meh, have horrible upset stomach this morning. Hasn't been great all week, and is classic pre-period symptom for me as the prostaglandins kick in. Reckon this is a false positive. Thanks for all the hope though everyone :)

I don't think false positives really occur on pink dye tests, so I'm going to say congratulations!

Albgo · 14/02/2019 09:53

That looks positive to me too. Congratulations. x

CaseofEllen · 14/02/2019 11:25

@flyingplum don't give up hope. I felt exactly like my period was going to start before I found out I was actually pregnant!

JenMumma · 14/02/2019 11:25

Definitely !!! Congratulations 🙂🙂⭐️⭐️xx

Jenala · 14/02/2019 11:37

It's exactly the same as both my positive tests were at the start. Congratulations!

flyingplum · 14/02/2019 12:43

@MrFlibblesEyes - thanks :) (and everyone else). Still no sign of AF, so being cautiously optimistic. Will get some more tests on the way home and try again at the weekend if no AF. Would be a nice late valentines for the boyf if it is. And my best mate just told me she's 13 weeks, so would be lovely. But cautious hope. Feels like after so long without a whisper it's too much to think we finally did it!

My very very faint line is turning 4 in a couple of months. Congratulations

flyingplum · 15/02/2019 08:06

Ok...couldn't wait until tomorrow. Another faint line. It was not a fluke. Fingers crossed it sticks. Thank you for the kind words yesterday everyone 🥰

hcopp · 15/02/2019 08:32

Everything crossed for you @flyingplum!

AngeloMysterioso · 15/02/2019 09:04

That's almost identical to the very faint FRER lines I had on Monday and Tuesday. I'm now the proud owner of 3 digital BFPs Grin congrats OP!

flyingplum · 16/02/2019 10:14

Line is fainter today. Think it is a chem. I know there's a high chance of this, and I should have just resisted testing so early, and I thought I was ok about it, but now I am sitting in the bath mat in tears, and about to go out and see my friend who is 14 weeks. Sorry...I know there's not a lot anyone can do, but OH is away and I need a hug Sad

AngeloMysterioso · 16/02/2019 12:30

@flyingplum sending you lots of hugs and keeping fingers crossed for you. Thanks

Reccy2018 · 16/02/2019 12:37

When I was preggo, the darkest line I had was my first test. It kept getting fainter. I've now got a 7 month old. Don't panic.

Chocolateandcarbs · 16/02/2019 12:40

It’s so hard not to test when you really, really want to know ☹️. If it were me I’d try really hard to not test, but probably wouldn’t manage it! Just be really kind to yourself and try to keep busy. You’ll find out one way or another in a few days. I really hope it’s good news for you xx.
