Show me your faint FRER - was it a real BFP or not?

As the title says really. I have a vvfaint FRER and twiddling my thumbs until I can test again to see if it really is the start of a BFP.

I’ve read that these tests don’t really get eval/indents....so what do we think? What did yours look like?

I can see a faint line! Definitely test again in the morning, fingers crossed a clearer line pops up 🤞🏻

This was my FRER at 9dpo. The next day I got a darker line and a positive digital!

Both of these were positive (2 different pregnancies) and taken around 9/10dpo.

Thanks both. I feel like I’m clutching at straws telling myself you don’t get indents with these. Tomorrow is taking so long to get here...!

This was mine. It was the real deal - confirmed the following day and I'm now 5 weeks and 4 days (counting every day!).

@literaryseed was the line the next day much darker? I feel like I need it to be obvious and not a squinter to believe it! Do you see the line on mine?

OP posts:
pinklady1207 · 17/06/2020 18:57

@ElizabethBennet3rd I can see it!! I have done one today which looks exactly the same as yours, I’m going to do another in the morning and hope for a darker line x

ElizabethBennet3rd · 17/06/2020 19:03

Thanks @pinklady1207 I’ll update tomorrow with my result....I so desperately hope it isn’t faint again...the suspense is too much!
Good luck to you...let us know.

pinklady1207 · 17/06/2020 19:13

I will update in the morning! Fingers crossed for you, let us know x

Literaryseed · 17/06/2020 19:49

I see your line @ElizabethBennet3rd. This was mine the next day in the afternoon. It was much clearer the next morning.

This is mine - got darker two days later. I'm 27+1 now! I see the line on yours - keep us posted!

Sammyclaire22 · 18/06/2020 06:20

This was my progression so don't worry if tomorrow's is faint too. Its really hard to see 9 and 10dpo now but they were v faint lines at first x

Well ladies this mornings FRER is so faint I can’t get it to show on a photo. I was up thirsty and had a pint of squash in the night...I don’t suppose that helped.

So I’m none the wiser today. This is hard.

Literaryseed · 18/06/2020 11:43

I'm sorry you haven't had any clarity OP. The wait is so hard. When is your period due?

ElizabethBennet3rd · 18/06/2020 11:47

@literaryseed af is due on Mon/Tue so I’m still early yet. It will be a glorious weekend though and DH will want a few drinks in the garden - hoped to know beforehand so I know whether I can have a cheeky wine in the sunshine ☀️
I’ve read some women test better in the afternoon when it’s early as the hgc is not stable yet. I’ve one more FRER so might try later on today.

Literaryseed · 18/06/2020 12:21

Good luck @ElizabethBennet3rd. Make sure you hold for as long as you can before you do another test and try not to drink too much before.

krj2608 · 18/06/2020 12:25

I hope you don't mind me following! I'm in the same position @ElizabethBennet3rd

Not at all @krj2608 welcome! How many DPO are you?
I’m trying to wait as long as I can to test again this afternoon but deep down I’m pretty scared to see a BFN. I’ll be devastated.

OP posts:
krj2608 · 18/06/2020 12:34

@ElizabethBennet3rd I'm not overly sure to be honest! I didn't really track this month. I'm cd 30 though. I looked back on previous pregnancies and didn't get a bfp until cd 36 and 38 with my other two children.

ElizabethBennet3rd · 18/06/2020 13:49

I tested again and it’s still just a mega squinter! I took the first photo after 3 mins then broke it open to get a closer shot. What do you ladies think?
Still too early maybe? Or should I be giving up literally pissing away money now 🤦‍♀️

I’m in the same boat. I’m 10dpo today and af due on Monday. I took a frer 7dpo and thought I seen a mega squinter. Then on 8dpo it seem like half a vvvvvfl and then on 9dpo I thought I saw a last but then I dunno. I’ve no tests today. But have frer arriving in the post this afternoon. So dunno whether to test them

ElizabethBennet3rd · 18/06/2020 15:34

Anyone?

OP posts:
RDC2020 · 18/06/2020 15:56

@ElizabethBennet3rd Attached is my line progression - I'm currently 7+1 and the top faint line I was around 9-10dpo (I think!)

hCG levels double every 48hours at the beginning (I believe) so you might not see a difference each day - but more likely every 2-3 days.

How many DPO are you? 🤞🏼

ElizabethBennet3rd · 18/06/2020 16:08

Thanks @RDC2020 and congratulations to you!
I think I’m 10DPO today (according to Flo which is usually spot on). Do you see the line on my tests? I’m worried I’m imaging it 🤦‍♀️.
If I’m not PG then there’s got to be a reason my boobs have suddenly grown! Weirdest thing!

Got everything crossed for you @ElizabethBennet3rd! Hope you dont mind me jumping on this too. I'm in a similar situation as I got a very very faint line on a FRER this morning but not sure if it's an indent so in a waiting game too!

I'm sorry I'm struggling to see anything on the newest ones. I've never had an Evap line on these myself so I really hope this is a BFP and just still early.
