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

Sorry @Kendrick12 missed your posts, that looks like your most positive one yet, fx for you!

gg321 · 14/01/2020 22:08

@Kendrick12 I had made peace with myself today too, I had my definite answer bfn, but then a squinter line (not that yours is a squinter....it’s pretty clear) I keep looking at my test, can’t decide if I see anything or not but I don’t even know why I’m looking it’s over 12 hours old, I’ve officially lost it 😂

Kendrick12 · 14/01/2020 22:31

@gg321 I literally feel like I've lost the plot and I'm so done with it! Googling and spending my whole evening every evening googling probability of a positive test at my stage! 🙈🙈🙈🙈 and now this which is most likely an evap and I'll be back to square one in the morning. I'm going to do one more in the morning then leave it and wait for AF if nothing! I'll let you know how I get on in the morning girls! Xxxx

Kendrick12 · 14/01/2020 22:36

I'm so glad I work and busy during the day otherwise I would have completely lost the plot by now!! 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ xxx

gg321 · 14/01/2020 22:43

@Kendrick12 I’m glad I’m not the only one, I’ve wasted hours and hours being consumed by this, I want af to come so badly to put a stop to it as like you I’m so done with it!

Kendrick12 · 14/01/2020 22:56

@gg321 I'm exactly the same if this cycle isn't the one next one I promise myself I won't do this!! I bet I will though!! 😢😢😩😩 xxx

Mich2020 · 15/01/2020 10:45

How's everyone this morning? I've ordered some cheapies from amazon, they will be here tomorrow. Not wasting money when at the minute I don't know what is best to happen. But if I am any test should be detecting it by now anyway xx

Nothing for me this morning girls it's so bizarre!! I'm on cd 36 today!! 😫😫😫 xxx

gg321 · 15/01/2020 12:00

@Kendrick12 that’s so strange and just not fair on you, such a head wreck! I didn’t test again this morning, just kinda hoping af shows so I don’t have to waste more money and buy more! I have one ic left but just feeling mentally drained so trying to forget about it (trying but not working lol) @Mich2020 hope things are going to work out for you with dp etc and hope whatever happens is for the best.

gg321 · 15/01/2020 12:08

I’m worried that IF I am (or any of us) although 99%sire I’m not now, why aren’t we getting definite bfps by now? I’ve been reading about late implantation, and low hcg, and it’s not good sign? Surely is best not to be pregnant now at this stage and not showing on a test cos surely something can’t be right, that’s what I’m thinking anyway 🤔 but you do hear of people not testing positive til over a week late but that’s maybe cos they ovulated late, the last time me and my dh dtd was cycle day 13 so even if I ovulated late and the swimmers hung around for 5 days (which I’ve read can happen, but usually only 3) I still should be def showing a decent bfp by now!! (On cycle day 32!) come on af put me out of this misery!

Kendrick12 · 15/01/2020 15:16

@gg321 I'm exactly the same the last time we did was 31st December so even if I ovulated late I should be showing although I had really strong pains last Thursday and a lot of CM so I was guessing that was implantation that was 6 days ago and I've read lots about people having a slower level of HCG and it taking over a week after implantation to show on a urine test so I'm very confused! I'm giving it till the weekend if no AF I will test again then and it should definitely be showing up by then!!! Xxx

Mich2020 · 15/01/2020 16:15

Let's hope we all get some answers soon girls. My hospital letter came today so shouldn't be long for my op now! Unless I get my bfp which I don't even know if that's what I need at the moment. So difficult. I hope you both get some answers soon though. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you both xx

I always marvel at how people cope with long term ttc & fertility issues. Two of my friends tried for 5&7 years (happy endings though) and I get crazy over a few months. 🤷‍♀️

calimommy · 15/01/2020 16:55

Sorry don't know why that posted twice

gg321 · 16/01/2020 08:22

This is a first response rapid result (meant to get an early result one but picked up wrong one) this came up and gradually got darker over a few hours last night. Just an evap then yeah?! Please tell me it’s just an evap because it’s an impossibility for anything still be this faint when I am anywhere between 16/17dpo (4 days late)

This can't be a real line surely?
Mich2020 · 16/01/2020 08:53

Rapid response require a higher level of hcg is all I know.. ahh this much be frustrating for you. ❤️ hugs xx

OP posts:
calimommy · 16/01/2020 14:38

@gg321 I understand how frustrating this is for you! Perhaps you could go to your GP for bloods as you are late? Although I can see a faint faint line, it's difficult to decide because those tests really aren't meant to be disassembled. As @Mich2020 said they also require quite a high HCG concentration. X

I'm trying to resist testing, not sure exactly when af is due tbh but also I don't feel like I fancy the disappointment today.

Mich2020 · 16/01/2020 17:56

I should have tests waiting for me at home.. but won't be home for a bit. I have soooo much cm this afternoon/ evening. Don't know if that's a good sign or not. Still no sore boobs. So so strange. Due on between today/Monday? Not really sure on my cycle length as always varies xx

OP posts:
Mich2020 · 16/01/2020 20:22

BFN after 5 mins. If I was pregnant it would have shown up by now I'm sure especially after those Tesco tests last week. Has anyone tested this evening? Or got any news? Xx

Sorry @Mich2020 fingers crossed for the next cycle xx (if that's what you want! I hope things are going ok with DH)

I think I'm 4-9 days out from af so no point wasting tests I guess. I did do one earlier in the month because I was feeling so off I wondered if it had happened the month before -no such luck ha! I don't feel like I'm pregnant now though, so no idea what to expect tbh.

gg321 · 16/01/2020 20:53

Sorry @Mich2020 I hope all works out for you. No more tests just waiting on af as feel testing is a waste of time, I guess I may do another in a day or so if no af

Mich2020 · 16/01/2020 20:55

@calimommy thank you 😊 my laparoscopy and tube dye should be scheduled soon so hoping that might help. I think we can resolve it 🤞🏻
Good luck for when you test. Please keep us posted won't you xx

OP posts:
Mich2020 · 16/01/2020 20:56

Aww sorry to hear that @gg321

I hope we can all keep in touch over the ttc journey though. It's been nice talking to you so be a Shame to not continue xx
