Line eyes! It seems obvious but...

Tested with a First Response. AF due in about 6 days time according to my app, and I'd guess I'm about 10dpo.

Thing is, I've been using cheap internet OPKs and they didn't predict a surge at all this month! Nothing. All negative. So unless I've missed the LH window, I was genuinely thinking I hadn't ovulated at all!

Could it be an evap??

Seriously?

Quite obviously positive

I see a line!!! Congrats!!

We've been trying for a LONG time, and nothing. So perhaps I'm just shocked!

A definite positive, congratulations.

Dude you up duffed.

Congrats

Looks totally positive to me! Really clear for 6 days before af. It's really easy to miss the lh surge so it's prob just that.

Congratulations 🎉🎉

If you're due in 6 days you would only be 8dpo today. I think you've missed the surge and ovulated later than you thought! Congratulations

I can definitely see a line! Have you got more tests to try? A clear blue digital?

Thanks everyone! Fingers crossed it sticks! I've had absolutely no symptoms except sore boobs, but assumed just PMT.

No digital but might try and pick one up later or Amazon it just to confirm.

I really wasn't expecting this! The line came up fairly quickly.

So tested again this morning at 9dpo.
Think it's a certainty - just really shocked to have lines so early! Today's is on the left, yesterday's on the right. I'd say today's is definitely stronger. Had some cramping yesterday and I'm going from no appetite whatsoever to RAVENOUS, but with no idea what I fancy eating 🤷‍♀️.

@mushroommayhem - I'm so pleased for you! X

@Yakadee thank you! I know I'm not out of the woods chemical-wise but I think the strengthening of the line can only be a good thing!

@mushroommayhem - it's a fantastic line! All the best xx

Those lines are super strong for 8/9 dpo.

Is it possible you're further on? Either ovulated earlier or actually pregnant from last cycle?

Just because you say you didn't pick up on a surge this month.

I'd be getting a digital with weeks to be certain.

Oh and not to stress you further my friend had super strong positives and it was twins 🙈🙈

Good luck and congratulations ❤️

@Michellebops definitely not! I have really really heavy periods, and last month's was heavy as usual, so I don't think I could be 🤔.

I agree it's really quite strong for so early - oh God imagine if it was 😂 I hope not!!

I've been quite crampy today and noticed light pink spotting when wiping (tmi) so hoping this is implantation bleeding rather than a CP 🤞

@mushroommayhem - bleeding / spotting is really common and can be totally normal. I hear that unless it's accompanied with pain etc it should all be OK x

🤞 but I would be doing that digital to check x

Huge congrats @mushroommayhem Amazing news! Can I ask what time of the day you tested? I know you’re meant to test AM but I’m due on thurs and really want to test tonight when my other half is home from work but don’t know if it would show!

Congrats OP. I got a strong positive like that at 9dpo and just found out I am having twins so you never know 🙈

@Greendales ahh cycle buddies - AF for me was supposed to be due Friday, but hopefully not considering!

I did test the 8dpo and 9dpo tests with first morning urine, but I did another test yesterday evening (again at 9dpo) after a bit of pink spotting (which totally stopped after about an hour). I was really hydrated and didn't hold any wee and still had the positive!

You must be 10/11dpo, so you could try a FRER?!

@Wishing56 oh God! 🙈 congrats!! I definitely don't have room for two 😂🏠 hoping I'm just one of those people with weird amounts of HCG 🤞 what were your early symptoms?!

Just sore boobs and light tugging/ cramps. Had light spotting at 5 weeks. Had blood tests which showed I have extremely high HCG so thought maybe there was more than one baby.
I found out at early scan on Saturday when I was 8+3 that it is twins.

Good luck with your pregnancy. Hope you have a healthy 9 months!
