@LuckyWright it's so hard. But I just find it too stressful when it's negative then I convince myself it's too early. At 14DPO it would def show so eliminates the stress for me 😀

Hi ladies. Would a frer show a faint (pinky...!!) evap in the time frame? By 3-5 minutes.

[Elly88]

Any more tests @Ellabella234?
I've now got the added stress of having a hosp appt for a mole check to my 2ww 😭 hoping my appt comes before af so any bfp results aren't dampened. Currently 4-6dpo with lower back ache and odd cramps and nausea

[Ellabella234]

Yes I had this yesterday afternoon. It appeared to my surprise at about 3 mins and was definitely there at 5. I don't think evaps can come that quick can they? Plus it is pink. Anyway, I took another this morning and it's so faint you can barely see it at all only if I put my torch on my iPhone. I was thinking maybe my fmu isn't the best (I've read some find afternoons are better for them), as I drink water through the night as I've got a bad cough and throat at the moment and my toddler also sometimes wakes at night. Maybe it's very early and my fmu wasn't strong enough? Confused🤷🏻‍♀️ hoping it's not a chemical? X

[Elly88]

@Ellabella234 that first one looks promising. How many dpo are you now?

[Ellabella234]

@Elly88 I've got no idea of knowing really. My cycles vary from 30-41 days. Average 41. I guess if it was another 32 day cycle like the month before last then I'd have ovulated CD19 which would make me 160dpo!? But it's definitely likely I could have ovulated later than that so I could be a lot less dpo than that 🤷🏻‍♀️😕

Hi all can i join? Currently on 8dpo with AF due a week from today. Desperately trying not to symptom spot!

@Ellabella234 I can see a second line on the first photo from your post this morning – good luck! How many dpo are you?

[Ellabella234]

Ok so I've just 'wiped' as I felt a bit wet down there (sorry if tmi) and there was a bit of creamy browny/pink on the tissue. Is it too late for implantation bleeding if test is already showing very faint positive yesterday?

[Elly88]

@Ellabella234 I believe you only get a positive once you've implanted and therefore started creating the hormones that the test pick up. Having said that, brown is old blood and a bit of spotting throughout pregancy is normal. I had some when I wiped with ds1 and everything was absolutely fine. Or I suppose it could be the start of af :/ try and relax and wait it out. Xx

[Alison95]

@Ellabella234 I've just taken on even tho I've got spotting and this is mine. I was due on anytime now

[Alison95]

Sorry wrong pic

[Liam2018]

So sorry to be a pain! Anyone see a faint line? The opk has come back so dark tonight where as this morning it was v light and I swear I can see something on the pregnancy test

[Elly88]

@Liam2018 I see it! But confusing cos thought pregnancy tests are more sensitive than OPKs?have you got a frer to use with fmu? X

[Liam2018]

Elly I know I was confused! I have and I will, did a bit of tweaking (know your not supposed to do it) but theres no denying its there

[Ellabella234]

@Alison95 I can see the kind on yours. Was this taken today?

[Ellabella234]

@Liam2018 I see yours too! Take another in the morning?

I have bled for an hour or two today ladies, with some cramping on the left side, and then it's just stopped I think? Unless there's more to come. It was red, and wasn't heavy but more than 'spotting' or just when wiping. But it didn't last very long. I've got a pad on but it changed to more pinky red blood rather than proper red , and now nothing. ?

Definitely don't think I can manage holding off til Thursday. I'll be doing a boots test I've got left, in the morning I think 😬 then in search of more frer or boots tomorrow probably..

[Ellabella234]

@Alison95 that was meant to say line** not 'kind' !

[Ellabella234]

Me again! I thought I'd updated but must've forgotten. I did a boots test this arvo, couldn't find any Frers, just after started bleeding. They detect at 10 too like frer I think. Pink line (faint..) can you all see it?

[Elly88]

@Ellabella234 yep I see it! Just have to hope it keeps getting darker, fingers crossed for you xxxxx

[Liam2018]

Well guys think I had a false positive or evap lines because it's clearly false today

[Liam2018]

Maybe a better picture

[Ellabella234]

@Liam2018 my frer doesn't have a line this morning either but then again I am convinced I'm one of those people who's fmu isn't the best choice, afternoon is best. Anyway, still bleeding, but barely, very lightly, not like normal period, so not sure what's going on with me! X

[Liam2018]

@Ellabella234 You trying again this evening? I might try! Its stressful when you see something and your not sure :(

[Elly88]

I couldn't resist as been nauseous, headachey and dizzy. I'm somewhere between 5-8dpo. Pretty sure I'm insane but anyone see the faintest of faint lines starting to appear? Probs just a shadow tho. Feel free to tell me Ive finally lost it 😂

[Liam2018]

Elly not sure I can but it's always more noticeable in person!
