@Mama1993 I hope so, Im really loosing hope, I've had sore breasts and cramping since 3dpo so for 10 days now.. No I never get cramping or sore breasts. Yesterday's was only a squinter, my app says AF is due on Sunday however I ovulated early so I suppose AF could turn up early

BFN for me this morning - I had a feeling the 'lines' were too faint yesterday. Ah well, I'm still only 11DPO so still time I guess!

SparklePrincesss · 30/09/2020 08:26

@MummyToPrince YES! That will definitely make a difference!

@Mama1993 those digital tests are only good when you've already had stronger bfp on strip tests because the digitalis require a higher hcg.

I'm crampy today and the weird ewcm is becoming more proper period colour... but that didn't stop me testing 🙈🤣🙄

I think the shadows I'm seeing are just line eyes.

@RBCoxie still time!!

RBCoxie · 30/09/2020 08:46

@SparklePrincesss thank you lovely - here's hoping! 🤞🏼x

Supermathsdoc · 30/09/2020 08:47

@RBCoxie @MummyToPrince theres
definitely still time, you don’t know you’re out until you know for sure.

The different sensitivities definitely make a difference and the 25IU/mL ones are not very sensitive at all. If you can, I would wait 48 hours and try a FRER but I know that’s easier said!

MummyToPrince · 30/09/2020 08:52

@RBCoxie I have so much hope and I really think you will get a BFP did you have a drink during the night?... I know you should look at your test after 5-10 minutes but I've just looked and it's dried with a pink faint positive... Not holding out any hope currently eating salt and vinegar crisps 😂

@Supermathsdoc so sorry for the stupid question, but how do you find out the sensitivities of each test? Yesterday I used a First Response early test and this morning I used a Clear Blue early test - are these different sensitivities? x

maybe2021 · 30/09/2020 08:53

Tested this morning at 10dpo , what do you think , I feel like am making up the line with my eyes 🙈 period not due till next Tuesday

@RBCoxie google is how I find it as you can look up the manufacturers websites, it'll usually say there. They used to say on the packs but I've noticed they don't anymore, they all just shout "can test up to 4/5/6 days before missed period" 🙄 noooo not all of them can if you implanted later...🤷🏼‍♀️sighs

@maybe2021 there's a squinted in the inverted but when I change it to non inverted I can't see it.

MilkchopsMcgee · 30/09/2020 09:05

@MummyToPrince hcg double roughly every 2 days so if yesterday's on a 10 was a squinter it probably wouldn't register on a 25ul test, so it's very possible your not out yet, and if AF isn't due until Sunday then it's still early, those 25ul ones aren't any good for testing until after AF is due really so don't give up hope yet

RBCoxie · 30/09/2020 09:07

@MummyToPrince thank you so much - I am keeping absolutely everything crossed! I slept through the night so didn't drink anything - I've ordered more of the first response tests to pick up today. Makes me feel like I was going mad yesterday! 😂 If the line is pink doesn't that mean that the hormone has reacted? If it was a grey line it means it hasn't and it's just an evap. I wouldn't count yourself out yet - I'm keeping everything crossed for you 💕 I want this to be our month!!

RBCoxie · 30/09/2020 09:20

@Supermathsdoc @SparklePrincesss @MummyToPrince I've found online that First Response is 6.3mlU and Clear Blue is 10mlU!

Maybe my levels haven't got high enough yet as if it was only faint yesterday and it hasn't had enough time to double then it won't show on the Clear Blue! Can you tell I'm clutching at straws here? 😂

SparklePrincesss · 30/09/2020 09:25

You're correct, if the line is grey then it's an indent just PLEASE don't do a me and crack open the frer because you will end up with a higher chance of false positives/indents.

Supermathsdoc · 30/09/2020 09:32

@RBCoxie I don’t think you’re clutching at straws at all and those differences in sensitivities could be the cause of your results. I’m not sure if people will find this helpful or actually a bit annoying but I found this from fertility friend on how likely you are to get a false negative, when you might get a true positive etc if you scroll down there’s a table which I found helpful

MummyToPrince · 30/09/2020 09:32

Well I'm on a hunt today to find a FRER I'm not going to stop until I find one 😂 to be honest I thought I see something on the test in the time frame but i was doubting myself

RBCoxie I know I want a positive so bad, even more so after my squinter yesterday!

RBCoxie · 30/09/2020 09:49

@Supermathsdoc thank you! I found this really helpful!

@MummyToPrince I have ordered some from Superdrug. The one near me does a pick up in 30 minutes, so I've ordered online and going to pick them up later today. Maybe try there if you have one near you?

SparklePrincesss · 30/09/2020 10:59

I'm out. Af is in force

MummyToPrince · 30/09/2020 11:06

SparklePrincesss · 30/09/2020 11:22

MummyToPrince · 30/09/2020 11:31

Someone help me decide what to do 😂 so I've got 2 FRER Ive done a 4 hour hold however in that time I've had a couple mouthfuls of drink should I test or wait till morning?
