Yes they do, so you are pregnant, congratulations :) You'll need to call the gp or self-refer to a midwife team so they can get you booked in for your first appointment. Don't keep taking hcg tests, they are not designed to track progression, and you can be tricked by the variant hook effect by week 6 or so.

They are barely visible so I assume you are very very early? Think the answer is to hang on another 2 days and re-test. The lines never go very dark in cheapies early on so maybe get an FRER and you should see a clearer line in a few more days.

It looks like they are getting lighter tbh

GeorgiaMcGraw · 26/08/2021 14:58

Sorry, I didn't interpret that very well first time. There is a positive there, but faint. The general advice is to leave it a couple of days and test again, see what happens. Fingers crossed for you.

How long have these been taken? If it’s one a day then the progression isn’t great I’d say.

So app says I’m 13dpo however I never confirmed ovulation so I could be earlier I’m not sure I got a peak on a OPK but that was about it. I taken two a day so a couple is night urine however most recent line is fmu

I'm sorry it doesn't look like convincing progression. They are lightening.

Hopefulhedgehog · 27/08/2021 07:12

Really sorry OP these are looking very light for 13dpo. I would say very little chance of this showing up on a digital assuming you’re cheapies are pretty sensitive. Hopefully your app has misjudged ovulation and it is easier than you think. When is AF due?x

Hopefulhedgehog · 27/08/2021 07:18

*earlier than you think

Congratulations!!!

lapeonia · 27/08/2021 15:37

My tests look exactly the same (the cheap ones). Got a clear positive on an FRER on Tuesday and did a digital one yesterday which also came up as 1-2 so exactly the same as you. Have a feeling the cheap tests just don’t really work that well?

Anyways, congratulations X

Hopefulhedgehog · 27/08/2021 17:28

Amazing!! Congrats! Just goes to show those cheapy tests are crap. Always thought you needed a strong line before you would get a bfp on a digi

Bundaberg84 · 27/08/2021 20:48

@Hopefulhedgehog I know! The cheapies just seem to be either positive or negative, but not go darker with a higher hcg concentration. Interesting!

SareBear87 · 28/08/2021 19:00

I'm having a nightmare with ICs!
I've never previously had an issue with them but the one steps this time are ruddy awful! They are such squinter a whereas the FRERs are clear as day!

I've attached my 12dpo picture for comparison
