Is this really BFP on ICs?! FRER negative??

I am shaking... just did a IC and got a faint line, did 2 more and BFPs!!
However I then did a FRER with same sample and barely there, possibly if I squint line.. I thought FRER would show up first and be more obvious?
Could the ICs be wrong or is this definitely BFP?

Looks like the start of a BFP Smile

I see the line on the frer, it's faint but you've presumably been weeing all evening! Try again tomorrow morning, but it looks very promising.

Thank you 😬
I'd actually been in the bath so held my wee for a couple of hours, but still not the same as FMU! That was my last FRER though so I guess I'll see if ICs look darker or not. I also have a clear blue digi which I think I will be tempted to use, although I know it will probably be early 🙈 would be nice to be able to use that to show my DH if it did say pregnant 😬😬😬
I'm too excited to sleep now 🙈

Congratulations.

This makes me feel better about mine. I am getting lines on FRERs but not as dark as I'd like. Got a 1-2 on a CB this morning too. I can't let myself get excited yet.

I actually got darker lines on tests that were supposedly less sensitive. I don't rate frers. Congrats

ArriettyJones · 05/04/2020 07:46

Congratulations! Smile

WreckTangle95 · 05/04/2020 07:48

Wooo congratulations!!!

Mrsirvine · 05/04/2020 07:55

Amazing news! Congrats!

SpillTheTeaa · 05/04/2020 08:09

Congratulations! One of the best feelings see your BFP! ☺️

MsChatterbox · 05/04/2020 08:18

Congratulations! So exciting 😊

Lily2020 · 05/04/2020 08:21

Ahhh congratulations @Katnissx !!! How many dpo are you?

Katnissx · 05/04/2020 16:47

Thank you so much! I can't believe it 😁

@Lily2020 I think I'm about 12dpo but didn't pin ovulation down very well so not 100% certain.

@bitheby ah no, you can definitely get excited!! If the clear blue says pregnant then you're pregnant! Congratulations 🥳
I'm really disappointed with FRER they really seem to be going down hill from the things I've been hearing recently.
Have you had many symptoms yet? Xx

About two days before testing positive I was suddenly eating loads. Constantly hungry.

Last couple of days just having twinges in my uterus and vagina. Hoping that's normal.

Have also been very tired but I have a stressful job and haven't been sleeping well so the fatigue is hardly surprising.

latheritup · 05/04/2020 23:39

Congratulations Grin

Katnissx · 06/04/2020 23:09

@latheritup thank you! 😁

@bitheby yes definitely normal, everything growing and stretching down there 😊 I've been having minor cramps and like pulling in my lower tummy, and it kind of pulls if I stand up too quickly. I've been feeling hungrier too, I have been getting a bit lightheaded and the last two days I've had headaches too 🤕 it's all worth it though ☺️ hope you manage to get some rest, maybe some meditation or gentle exercise or something can help you to destress after a stressful day xx

Thanks @Katnissx

Luckily I'm on two weeks annual leave so that's pretty good timing.

Well it's big luck, actually, I needed it so I booked it! But at least I'm avoiding stress for these first couple of weeks after the BFP.

*not luck, not big luck.
