Another month, another faint test

Hiya! So last month I asked for opinions on a some faint lines I was getting but it ended up coming to nothing so must have been evaporation lines ☹️

This month I'm 11dpo and I have another faint line but I swear it's different to last month when I look back on the pictures. This month I think it's clearer and more pink.
Anybody want to give me their opinion?

Just to give some background, this is month 20 ttc number 2, and my second month on progesterone suppositories due to short luteal phase.
What's funny about this month is it's the first month I haven't had sore boobs after ovulation other than the month we conceived dc1. Really hoping this is our month 🤞🤞🤞

That's not faint op congratulations Flowers

Emmyanddreams · 27/06/2021 08:32

Do you not think @delilabell? I really hope you're right. After last month I'm just nervous about getting my hopes up

Totally understand that. Have you tried doing a pregnant/not pregnant one yet? I was expecting it to be a squinted but I can clearly see it.

Emmyanddreams · 27/06/2021 09:02

Not yet @delilabell. I'll try one in a couple of days as I've heard they're not as sensitive.

Just been to the toilet and had some very light brown tinged cervical mucus when I wiped. Really hope that's not a bad sign.

That line is strong enough for a digital, I reckon.

Emmyanddreams · 27/06/2021 09:30

Oooh do you think. Maybe I'll try in the morning then. I've already had too much fluid this morning to test now!

RosettaTheGardenFairy · 27/06/2021 11:01

Yep, clear line - congrats!

Emmyanddreams · 28/06/2021 07:48

I stupidly did a digital test yesterday afternoon instead of waiting for this morning! The result was not pregnant. What a waste of a test!!
I did another frer this morning. Was hoping for a darker line but I do think it's a tiny bit darker than yesterday. I'm still only 12dpo.

Do you think this looks like normal progression or slow? The bottom test is today's.

@Emmyanddreams I think I'm in similar situation to you, these are my FRERs, although I did get a bfp on a digital at 12dpo using smu. The top test was at 12dpo bottom one was taken today (14dpo). To me there's no difference and I've almost convinced myself something is wrong 😕

SareBear87 · 28/06/2021 13:53

🤦🏼‍♀️ top test is 14dpo, bottom is obviously 12dpo

timeisnotaline · 28/06/2021 14:01

It looks a pretty clear positive to me. I would test again in a few days and see if it’s getting stronger, I don’t want to say anything negative but while it’s a clear positive it’s not a very strong positive for 14dpo. But that doesn’t have to mean anything, it could just have been slow to implant. Fingers crossed for you in few days!!

Emmyanddreams · 28/06/2021 14:25

@SareBear87 perhaps you ovulated later than you thought and it's a bit early. Do you track your temp?

OP posts:
SareBear87 · 28/06/2021 15:00

@timeisnotaline that's what worries me. I was pretty happy with the 12dpo but the 14 has me worried.

@Emmyanddreams I don't temp but had a positive OPK at CD14. My cycles are bang on 29 days so I expect I ovulated around CD15.

The only thing I can reason is that maybe because I was so thirsty yesterday it had diluted. I also had to pee in the middle of the night which I didn't for the 12dpo... I do feel like I'm clutching at straws though

Emmyanddreams · 28/06/2021 15:18

@SareBear87 it could be that. Try again tomorrow or the day after.
Sorry I'm not much help x

SareBear87 · 28/06/2021 17:22

Frustrating right?! All this waiting lark!

I called my GP who said my risk is low and not to worry about progression because there are so many factors to take into consideration. The tests only give a binary result - positive or negative, don't use them for anything else.

I'm gonna step away for a few days and just take the fact I have a positive test, sore boobs and an unquenchable thirst as a good sign!

Emmyanddreams · 28/06/2021 17:39

@SareBear87 good idea! I should do the same...but probably won't! 🙈

OP posts:
BastardMonkfish · 28/06/2021 17:45

There's definitely two lines on them, if they turn out to be not positive then FRER should be banned!!

Emmyanddreams · 29/06/2021 11:14

I got a 'Pregnant' on a digital test this morning 😁😁😁
