Hey, so this is my story. Had coil removed February 2019, had first period April time. Been ttc ever since. Had some Dodgy lines a few months ago. Last month December I had a positive frer a week before af was due. Had a couple more Faint lines throughout the week also some negatives. Had a gynaecologist appointment on the 19th , had internal scan etc etc not to do with pregnancy but my endo. He scanned my womb and everything so I know I wasn't pregnant well he never mentioned it. I was due period 20th, bang on time although after scan I was spotting so I think he brought it on a bit. Anyway very heavy bleed for half a day on the 20th and then spotting for 2 More days after that. Nothing like a real period at all. Ever since haven't really had any signs of ovulation or anything haven't tracked this month. Just dtd for 4 days in a row leading up to new year and then on the 3rd. Anyway tonight whilst sitting alone I thought I'd do a test.. don't know why and it was only an internet cheapie. But there's a faint line? If I ovulated when I should have (like the same as last month) this could only make me 6-8dpo maybe before I don't actually know this month at all. Photo is attached. Do you think that's possible or should I count this an an Evap or false positive? I will test again later after I've held for another couple hours. Any help would be great. I am not getting hopes up as wayyyy to early I think. It's a squinter but there and within a min or two xx

Another cheapie from the local shop. Never held my pee though. Will use the other with fmu. This one may have a tiny hint of a line irl but nothing like the Tesco tests.

I tested tonight with an ic and a superdrug both bfn but maybe mega faint lines but surely I’d be showing good lines now on day af due 14dpo, I’ll just expect af and maybe keep going with the odd test. Have painful cramps and back ache, so maybe I’ll see af in the morning, and I won’t mind as will put my mind at rest after 2 weeks of being so convinced. Good luck @Mich2020 for your morning test

Mich2020 · 12/01/2020 19:55

Hope all goes okay for you @gg321 let me know. Keeping fingers crossed that you get your bfp though. Thank you. Won't expect the best and then I won't be disappointed xx

I didn’t mention when I first did the ic I was watching it closely and witching 1-2 mins a really clear pink positive line appeared, stayed for a minute longer then disappeared so that was weird, another mess with the head!! Any idea what that was about?

Mich2020 · 12/01/2020 21:20

Those ics are funny things. They do do some weird stuff, you would have thought for how close you are to af that you would have a definite answer by now wouldn't you. Really hoping it works out well for you xx

gg321 · 13/01/2020 12:03

@Mich2020 Yeah I completely agree I think I should have a definite answer by now but what if I got my ovulation date wrong? I don’t use opk, just go by cm mainly and I had some further along too after I thought I’d ovulated so who knows. I did another ic this morning and got this but like u say these ic do funny things. Still no af x

@gg321 @Mich2020 how are you both getting on?? I was due AF last Friday still nothing and still BFN dispute my faint positives last Thursday all 4 of them! I'm so confused! And promising myself when I do come on next cycle I'm not going to do this to myself again!!! 🤞🤞🤞 xxx

gg321 · 13/01/2020 22:53

@Mich2020 @Kendrick12 that’s so strange we have all had faint bfps but now all bfns, I may test again in the morning for one last chance of anything darker but I doubt it, even if I ovulated later than I first thought, and took a while to implant I really should be showing something by tomorrow! And yes I’m not doing this again in a tww! I’ve gone slightly insane!

Mich2020 · 14/01/2020 16:24

Hey. I haven't tested again. Life's pretty crap at the moment, having a few issues with DP but I still have no signs like I usually have with upcoming period. My boobs aren't sore, my face isn't so spotty. But I am very tired and having some cramps now and again. I'm going to see what happens over the next few days and maybe test again at the weekend. How did your test go @gg321 ?
@Kendrick12 how strange. You would have thought something would have been clear by now. Have you got any signs of af? Xx

@Mich2020 hope things improve for u soon. I did a frer this morning bfn so after convincing myself I was pregnant seems I was wrong.

gg321 · 14/01/2020 17:52

So I get home and stupidly have a sneaky look at this mornings frer, and I see a squinter just to mess with my head some more but I don’t know why I let it as nothing came up in the time, and if I was pregnant then I should be getting decent lines anyway so after finally relaxing and having a whole day ‘knowing’ I’m not now my mind is on the run again. I just wish af would show up sooner rather than later to we’ll and truly put my mind at ease!

Mich2020 · 14/01/2020 17:56

Oh god @gg321 bless you that's so frustrating. Have you got a pic? How long did you look at it this morning before leaving it? Xx

@Mich2020 sorry you are having a rough time. It can be very stressful ttc!

Kendrick12 · 14/01/2020 20:35

@Mich2020 @gg321 now I am completely confused!! Still no AF for me, I did another test tonight thinking I know I'm not as I did one this morning was absolutely negative!! Did one tonight, looked after the 3 minutes nothing. Had a bath, got ou the bath about an hour later picked up the test to throw away glanced and saw an obvious line!! 🙈🙈🙈 I know do not know what to think again, as this was after the 3 minutes probably way after but it is almost definitely a pink line as opposed to a great line looks nothing like an indent line!! But surely it would show up darker by now if I were!! I'm 15 dpo today!! 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ please someone help me out!! 😫😫😫 xxx

Also never got evap lines from these tests before and used half the box now!! 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ xxx

Mich2020 · 14/01/2020 20:47

Wow, I'd say that's positive myself. When was the last time you used a frer. Sorry gets so confusing on threads.. maybe test again fmu and keep eyes on it 🤞🏻🤞🏻 for you xx

OP posts:
gg321 · 14/01/2020 20:48

Changed my mind, think my eyes were seeing things, just going to try and put it out my mind and wait for af

Kendrick12 · 14/01/2020 20:51

@mich2020 I haven't done another FRER since last Thursday when I got the 4 faint positives as I've used other brands since that have all been negative and lots of them. The only thing that makes me doubt this is I saw the second line literally over an hour after doing it!! I have used half a box of these tests and not happened before but it could still be a False couldn't it?? I so hate this as I'd honestly come to peace with the fact that it's not my month!! Now this!! 😫😫😫 xxx

Mich2020 · 14/01/2020 20:55

Aww @gg321 hugs.
@Kendrick12 so strange. It could be a false but they are rare. Take another tomorrow. I'll be waiting for an update. Eeeeek xx

OP posts:
calimommy · 14/01/2020 21:17

@Kendrick12 that looks positive. 🤞

calimommy · 14/01/2020 21:19

@gg321 I don't know if you drink but I'd recommend a stiff G&T (fever tree of course) and a movie xxx

gg321 · 14/01/2020 22:02

@calimommy yes I drink, and that sounds like a plan! x
