Faint bfp or frer indent?

11dpo. Not fmu.

Came up within time frame. Vvv faint line. Am aware of the notorious indents frer can give so very reluctant to think anything of it yet.

One pic unedited, other has contrast up slightly.

Thoughts?

I’m super excited for you and sending all the positive vibes I can 🤞🏼🤞🏼

AnxiousAnnie86 · 11/11/2020 19:00

@Moominmiss it might be faint! That's my fear I'm gonna do a test and it's just gonna be so weak! It hasn't gotten any darker in about five days, just stayed the same, I'm just hoping that's as dark as one steps go x

@Moominmiss I am notorious for not being able to see lines (I don't normally comment on here as it would just be the internet equivalent of a 97 year old screwing her face up uselessly at the screen Grin) But the ones in your last photo are clear as day even to me!

Good luck 🤞🏻

Don't worry @AnxiousAnnie86 as @Moominmiss says your line will smash it out the park compared to ours! I decided against one step after reading the reviews so have gone for a different make, MOMMED. Hope they work okay! If no line shows I'll be using a FRER tomorrow too 😂😂

AnxiousAnnie86 · 11/11/2020 19:36

@AMS19 I used them last pregnancy and they were really good!! Not massively sensitive but you are past Af? When did you last test, x

AMS19 · 11/11/2020 19:39

@anxiousannie86 today was period due on date so yes technically past it and 16DPO. A few people on amazon said they were better for progression rather than detection. I last tested with a FRER and CB digital yesterday, didnt test today. Planned to start these OPKs tomorrow and do another FRER Friday. If the lines are really light I may end up doing the FRER tomorrow, but let's see!

AMS19 · 11/11/2020 19:40

@AnxiousAnnie86 sorry that is wrong yesterday was period due on date! Today I was officially late x

lastbany · 11/11/2020 19:45

@Moominmiss how many days po are you abs when is af due? I ovulated 31st oct and af is due say had two neg cheap tests last Friday and Sunday and too scared to take any more (don't have any in house either) had cramps for 3/4 days!

AnxiousAnnie86 · 11/11/2020 19:50

@AMS19 yeah I've used them for progression, I'd show you but it's mortifying how many I've done!!! But they have deffo got to a point where they aren't going darker... I don't know whether to worry about that or not x

AMS19 · 11/11/2020 19:51

@AnxiousAnnie86 surely there is a max and they can't actually go any darker?! I would have expected that to be the case at your stage for sure!

AMS19 · 11/11/2020 19:52

And dont worry @AnxiousAnnie86 I would probably find it impressive rather than mortifying 😂😂

AnxiousAnnie86 · 11/11/2020 19:55

@AMS19 see what I mean about them stopping? X

@AnxiousAnnie86 yeah I reckon you've reached your peak there! What amazing beautiful progression ❤❤❤

AnxiousAnnie86 · 11/11/2020 20:02

@AMS19 I hope so!!! Xxx

AMS19 · 11/11/2020 20:07

@AnxiousAnnie86 jsut so I'm fully prepared for tomorrow, you happen to know what yours looked like at 17DPO? X

AnxiousAnnie86 · 11/11/2020 20:14

@AMS19 I didn't have any FRER left then I think this was my 17dpo smu, as I think I've said smu is always so much stronger then Fmu for me - I think this was 17/18 going off dates on camera roll x

AnxiousAnnie86 · 11/11/2020 20:16

@AMS19 this was the first day it was noticeably darker x

AMS19 · 11/11/2020 20:37

Thanks so much @AnxiousAnnie86 super helpful. I'll try both FMU and SMU and use which is darker going forward! 🤞🤞🤞 I see a decent line!

lastbany · 11/11/2020 20:46

What's fmu smu??

AnxiousAnnie86 · 11/11/2020 20:49

@lastbany first morning urine, second morning urine :) xx

lastbany · 11/11/2020 20:50

@AnxiousAnnie86 ahh thanks xx

Moominmiss · 11/11/2020 20:51

Thank you @Noshowlomo and @MrsCalypsoGrant.
It’s reassuring that others could see what I saw early on, and they perhaps weren’t such squinter as I thought, or at least fairly normal for how early I was testing!

@lastbany I’m 13dpo today. Ovulated on 29th October. You would be so super early to have tested positive last Friday or even Sunday. I wouldn’t count yourself out.
I tested at 9dpo and stark white negative. 10dpo I had the squintiest squinter that I couldn’t get on camera, then 11dpo a squinter that could just pick up on camera, and the lines have seemingly got a little clearer since then. My af was either due yesterday or it’s due tomorrow. My lp has varied between 11 and 13 days so not sure when it would be due. So I either first got a hint of a line at 2 days before af was due, or 4 days before it was due.

If you’re due in 2 days you might get something on a frer, but equally if nothing shows up yet, don’t lose hope, so many ladies don’t get a hint of a line until af is late!

@AnxiousAnnie86 you’ve got zero to worry about with your lines. As @AMS19 said you’ve totally hit your peak with how dark the tests can even go!

@Moominmiss @AMS19 good luck this morning ladies! The sickness has come for me full force today! X

Moominmiss · 12/11/2020 07:10

@AnxiousAnnie86 sorry to hear about the sickness coming for you, BUT equally not sorry, it’s a good sign! Embrace the sickness 😂

@AMS19 you testing today?

I just tested and got this!!!!!

Morning @Moominmiss @AnxiousAnnie86

So I did my IC and it was very light, so caved and did my FRER a day early...
Whoops. But that should lovely progression. The test line was already blaring positive before it even reached the control line!

So @Mooninmiss this absolutely shows not to worry about the ICs as their lines are so much lighter!! I can use them for progression now but would have definitely worried how light it was for 17DPO had I not done a FRER!
