Just bought 4 FRERs oops
Going to do one tomorrow morning 9dpo
I’m due on Sunday which is 10dpo, I should be wiping brown tomorrow. I really hope I don’t
I don’t have the heavy achey uterus I get before period. I feel nothing really. Odd occasion of feeling a bit sickly like quesy but otherwise nothing

candycrush2298 · 17/07/2020 16:04

@Boc86 please let us know ooooh I get so excited at testing time xx

He says that the lines are too far to the left to be positive and that they should be an equal gap from the control line...... got me worried :(

ReginaaPhalange · 17/07/2020 16:18

Should I do another FRER when I get home, or will there be no change from this mornings?

Elakiya · 17/07/2020 16:22

@Kaybobx Unfortunately spotting + cramps = Period is arriving. It's a very regular occurrence for me. I get really annoyed because every single possible pregnancy symptom is something I usually get during my wait for AF anyway so I can never ever symptom spot :(

@candycrush2298 Aww thanks hun... however opks still very light so can't see it happening this month.

@ReginaaPhalange I would take another opk to see how that turns out. It should still be positive? But I wouldn't do the FRER... until tomorrow morning.

ReginaaPhalange · 17/07/2020 16:25

@Elakiya I'll upload the OPK when I get home :)

ReginaaPhalange · 17/07/2020 16:58

Today's OPK

AF Due 20/07
Kaybobx · 17/07/2020 17:02

So i just went to Home Bargins and spotted some cheapies. Just done one andddddd its negative 😩 think I'll save my FRER until next month

Elakiya · 17/07/2020 17:33

@ReginaaPhalange if that OPK stays a peak tomorrow I think we can safely say you’re definitely pregnant. Hopefully by Sunday you should get a darker line 😄

Elakiya · 17/07/2020 17:33

@Kaybobx awww hun no worries AF still hasn’t arrived so you never know 😁😁😁

TTCandImpatient · 17/07/2020 18:59

Caved this morning and tested. I used the clear blue early test which says in words are you preggers or not. And got a BFN. 😞

Im 8DPO so I know it's early but those tests are supposed to be 99% accurate so not holding out hope tbh

We've been trying for over 1.5 years so just a bit fed up now

TTCandImpatient · 17/07/2020 19:02

@ReginaaPhalange

Today's OPK
Sorry I'm probably really dense but is that an ovulation test. Is there a trick to using ovulation tests this late in the cycle? Are they an indicator of pregnancy?
candycrush2298 · 17/07/2020 19:13

@ReginaaPhalange if you look online at positive FRER's you will see sometimes they are more over to the left. Theres a line. Don't worry about it. And based on that strong positive OPK I think it safe to say you are all good 😁

@Elakiya awww man that sucks

@Kaybobx ahhhhh so sorry!! That sucks

OP posts:
candycrush2298 · 17/07/2020 19:16

@TTCandImpatient those digital that don't say how many weeks that just pregnant/not pregnant are 99% accurate from day of missed period and should not be used early that have like a threshold of like 50miu you need to use 10miu tests if you want to test early. FRER is best for early testing

As for the reason ReginaPhalange is uploading OPKs is because she got a positive on a FRER and if you are getting positives on pregnancy tests you will get a positive on an OPK as those tests cannot distinguish between LH and HCG

ReginaaPhalange · 17/07/2020 19:26

Hubby has sat me down and showed me the new FRER have very faint lines in then where the dye will show up. Feel so confused now and starting to think I've not been getting positive tests at all :(

Feel so down that I've come up stairs with a test to try sneak one lol. Can't pee though :(

Kaybobx · 17/07/2020 19:27

@TTCandImpatient 8dpo is really early. You may not have even implanted yet.

@Elakiya AF and PG symptoms are supposed to be the same so dont give up hope yet.

@ReginaaPhalange i think that super strong OPK says it all 😊 how exciting!

I just went back to my test and i see and squinter! Its been like 30 mins so well over the 5 mins test time but fun to see a line even if its false haha!!

When does your AF end @candycrush2298

Kaybobx · 17/07/2020 19:31

@ReginaaPhalange they do actually have a line where the test line should be, i noticed that on mine!
Does yours have any colour? Make sure your pee isnt diluted if you test again. Hold it for a few hours

ReginaaPhalange · 17/07/2020 19:33

@Kaybobx the tiniest hint of pink x

candycrush2298 · 17/07/2020 19:33

@ReginaaPhalange hun, stressing isn't going to help. I agree with Kaybobx the strong OPKs say it all. You got the first pos yesterday so tomorrow/Sunday it should have darkened because HCG doubles every 48/72hours

@Kaybobx UPLOAD THE PHOTO!!!! I NEED TO SEE THIS!!!!!

And honestly I cant say I usually always have 4 days but last 2 months it only lasted 2 days. But this month is brutal, I am hoping it will slow down during the night and go to spotting in the morning. I even have clots which I have not had in years.

OP posts:
ReginaaPhalange · 17/07/2020 19:39

I just done one there again and it was completely negative. Not even hint of a line 💔

Kaybobx · 17/07/2020 19:41

@Reginaaphalange any hint of pink is a positive. Id be stupidly suprised if you weren't pregnant. Try again in the morning.

@candycrush2298 haha I'll have to fish it out the bin when hubby is out the shower. Its negative though as was over 30mins old 😂 oh man I've never had clots! Do you think it could have been a miscarriage? You had a postive then a negative, you're really heavy and clotting?

Kaybobx · 17/07/2020 19:43

@reginaaphalange did you hold your pee for a few hours? If you didn't it may show a negative

ReginaaPhalange · 17/07/2020 19:44

@Kaybobx I'll just wait to see if AF arrives. I don't want to torture myself anymore 😭 I feel so stupid now :( hubby is probably all smug that he was right and I was just obsessive.

Going to have an early night as don't want to speak to DH lol!

candycrush2298 · 17/07/2020 19:47

@ReginaaPhalange did you hold your pee and not drink anything?

@Kaybobx GET IT!!!! I NEED TO FREAKEN SEE THIS!! And it doesn't matter if its old i have watched 100s of videos where women fished it out the bin later to take a second look and bam there was a line and then 2 days later they got positives within the time frame.

I truly dont know its a really bad period I dont think I have ever had one like this. Its very heavy and yeah theres clotting alright.
Its possible it was a chemical pg I guess. In a way I hope it is becuase that means we can actually conceive. If it is I just hope we don't have go through another 31 cycles to get there.

OP posts:
Kaybobx · 17/07/2020 19:49

@ReginaaPhalange with that strong OPK, if you aren't pregnant you probably need to speak to DH, you need to get your BD on lol. You are either extremely fertile or pregnant right now.
