Now I really understand line eyes! BFP or evap?

12dpo, AF was due two days ago. Had two instances of very light spotting on 8 and 9dpo. CB this morning was negative but got this result on FRER.

Verdict? Counting down the hours until I can test again tomorrow!

I’d say BFP…! Eek! Yay x

Crabsy · 11/08/2021 23:36

Oh also I’m my experience FRER is more accurate in the early days than CB.

Crabsy · 11/08/2021 23:38

Sorry I’ve just seen that AF was due two days ago but you’re only 12DPO. Do you usually have such a short luteal phase? I’d expect a stronger line if you’re two days late but then again most people are due around 14DPO so maybe not.

Positive!

Starsnspikes · 11/08/2021 23:40

Yeah, LP is 10 days. I'm hoping that's why it's so faint despite AF being late, because if the spotting was IB then it only happened 3-4 days ago.

It does look clearer (and definitely pink) in person. I guess I'll have to see if it progresses though fingers crossed

I can def see a line.

Congratulations 🥳

I see something, what does this morning's test look like?

Starsnspikes · 12/08/2021 07:41

Looks the same this morning Hmm I really hope this is just the hCG taking its time to build up and not a sign of a chemical pregnancy. This time the line appeared pretty quickly, within 30 seconds (yesterday it took nearly the full 3 mins).

This is our first time TTC (cycle 3) so I'm new to it and got all excited to see a possible positive...now I'm not so sure Confused

Glad I can share here, because my husband just gently asked me to stop waving pee sticks in his face when he'd just woken up Grin

Ok...I think it's definitely darker today, my husband thought so but that's after the 3 minutes. It looks way clearer now and darker than yesterday. I know the results aren't meant to be read after ten mins but yesterday's test is old too, and there's a noticeable difference. Hopefully that's a good sign?

That's how mine progressed and now I'm 33 weeks Grin although hcg doubles every two days it starts from a tiny level so took mine a week or so to be really dark! Tentative congrats!!

Thank you! Crossing my fingers and trying to resist taking my digital test until the weekend Grin

@Starsnspikes

Thank you! Crossing my fingers and trying to resist taking my digital test until the weekend Grin
In all my pregnancy's successful or not I always showed faint lines on the day of missed period and digitals took for me to be a week late. So really try and hold off of doing the digital. It can be so disheartening to see not pregnant just because it's to early x

Thank you. Going to take that advice because It'd really upset me to see a BFN now after getting myself all excited. Will just have to accept that waiting is part of the process and get used to it!

Yeah that's the best thing you can do. Honestly I've done it before and it wasn't early enough for the digital and then you start worrying x
Gabby82 · 12/08/2021 15:14

Congratulations. Definitely a positive!

Starsnspikes · 12/08/2021 16:08

I caved...but it paid off Grin I know it's still early days but bugger it, I'm enjoying the excitement. Nice to see the words come up so clearly rather than squinting at lines!

I was going to say it looked like a definite positive. Congratulations!
