Hey ladies, I'm spending sooo much money each month on pregnancy tests... i think I'm addicted to peeing on sticks 😅 how early have you ladies actually got a positive test? My af is due in 6 days and i been testing all week - knowing its way to early but getting so disheartened seeing just the one line :( when should i start testing really?

@emmilyb they look to me like they have more colour in them today, especially the pink one !
What clear blue digital tests have you been taking? If you haven't already you should try the clear blue ultra early digital.. I believe they're way more sensitive that the weeks indicator etc...
Fingers crossed this is a good sign for you!!🤞 test again in tomorrow or in a couple days and see if there is any improvement.... I'd be testing tomorrow though because i am so so SO impatient 😂

I'm CD38 now!! Longest cycle yet, but i do have irregular periods so i never really know when she's going to come anymore 😩

Even so I definitely don't think I am pregnant this month, I would have far more positive lines for sure! I honestly think what I have been getting is indent lines on FRER and evap on CB and a clear NOT PREGNANT on CB ultra early digital

@Stallsey how are you getting on lovely ? Did you retest today?

@WhatTheEll did AF arrive or are we still in for a chance ??

Xxxx

@StillJustWaiting oh bless you hun it's so frustrating isn't it, honestly I'm the same I won't be able to test in a few days I've spent so much on tests already I feel like a crazy lady🤣

Normally I'm taking the tests apart shining a light on it to try and see any type of a line which is why I'm so confused this time because I can see them without squinting.

It's so disheartening having evap lines and honestly wish I tested a bit later 🙈

With me when it get to the point where you're so late and still negatives I'm wanting af to just hurry up so can start on the next cycle ❤️

Keep us updated I'll let you all know the outcome whatever it may be I just have a gut feeling of a cp this time but only time will tell xxxx

WhatTheEll · 06/11/2021 22:10

@emmilyb that last pink dye test looks gooooood! 👀 ♥️

@StillJustWaiting the spotting is all over the place. I reckon af will definitely show up tomorrow! Sounds like you're still in limbo too? :( xx

StillJustWaiting · 07/11/2021 06:55

@emmilyb it really is so frustrating! I spend a ridiculous amount of money each month on tests.... I need to stop really but i cant 😩😂

Yep, i take the tests apart with a torch 😂 but I haven't had too the last 4 days... as there has been a vvfl!

I took another FRER this morning the line exactly the same again! 5 indent lines in a row now!
I know i keep saying it but i am really going to try stop testing now and just wait for af, she must be close I'm CD39 now, which is definitely my longest cycle yet!
Its so upsetting when my cycles used to be like clockwork every 28days..

Hope to see another rest result this morning?!

@WhatTheEll ah I'm so sorry :( at least when af comes you can star again! But you're not totally out if its just spotting atm!
Yep stuck in an awkward patch, dont know when af is coming but getting BFN with cruel indent lines ! Xxxx

AF is here. How is everyone else getting on? Xx

emmilyb · 07/11/2021 08:50

@WhatTheEll ahh bless you, fingers crossed for next month hun ❤️

@StillJustWaiting I've just ordered more first response and clear blue digitalis on Amazon done £50 🙈 honestly us lot are funding these companies haha

Done another test this morning and not sure if it's darker or not. Think im just super early but feel like they should be getting darker now it's confusing me so much and feel like if im not pregnant then im delaying my af as I'm so stressed now ❤️

Oh so you got another faint line the thing is I can't see them all being indents or evap lines if it's so many in a row you get the odd bad test but we have all been there squinting trying to see the tiniest of lines but for you to have a few with faint lines must mean something xx

emmilyb · 07/11/2021 08:56

This mornings test❤️

@emmilyb congratulations that looks good!!!! Definitely positive that one !!!
I think you should get a positive ultra early digital at this point !?

I can't see why they wouldn't be getting any darker if they weren't indent lines, every day for 5 days I've had a VVVFL! But literally super faint with no progression! It must must must be indent !

@emmilyb Congratulations!! Feels so real when it's in writing 🎉❤️

StillJustWaiting · 07/11/2021 18:59

@emmilyb HUGE CONGRATULATIONS! When did you take that FRER? Im surprised because you other pink dye one looks much darker than the FRER? :) xxx

OP posts:
emmilyb · 07/11/2021 21:14

@StillJustWaiting I don't the first response the same time I took the digital it's still super faint so not feeling 100% confident with it but as it's dried it's a lot darker. How are you getting on? I'm due on tomorrow so still super early❤️

StillJustWaiting · 07/11/2021 21:26

@emmilyb huh that's interesting, whats the other pink dye test you used ? :) looks to be a good one!!
Can i see it now its dry? Sorry to be so nosey, I'm just trying to gage what I'm looking for too! Haha!

I'm so pleased for you, please keep us updated along your pregnancy journey!! Xxxx

StillJustWaiting · 07/11/2021 23:23

@emmilyb I know the ones! (I think!)
I'm sure the sensitivity on those tests is 20mlU and FRER sensitivity is supposed to be 6.3mlU (I think).... its really interesting, my sister is pregnant with a little girl 😍 but she got a positive co op test before a positive FRER and we was saying how mad it was, now your line too is clearly darker on co op test that's supposed to be less sensitive !
I think I might start using them instead!

Ah you must be sooo so excited! Xxxx

OP posts:
emmilyb · 08/11/2021 08:30

@StillJustWaiting oh really that is interesting,
However unfortunately I do believe this one to be a chemical the lines aren't getting darker today's frer is completely negative.:( just a waiting game now hope you're all ok xx

Good morning all, I've had my BFP this morning (I've started a seperate post).
I was convinced I was coming on. I had very similar feeling to AF starting, I even had spotting but it just 'stopped'. I'm a bit in shock but very happy.

Baby dust to all and I truly wish the best of luck for everyone ThanksThanks xxxx

When to test?
Pugmumm · 08/11/2021 09:21

I am doing a first response this afternoon just to make sure. I've only been using the HCG cheapies for the past week x

WhatTheEll · 08/11/2021 09:45

@emmilyb I'm sorry your tests aren't darkening, but you got a positive CB early digital, hold onto that! Keeling everything crossed!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻
@Pugmumm Huge Congratulations 🎉 the best ones are the shockers

Pugmumm · 08/11/2021 09:53

Thank you so much @WhatTheEll I'm very shocked but happy at the same time, it's a very weird feeling Smile

Good luck @emmilyb Thanks. Xx

Stallsey · 08/11/2021 11:58

So sorry for being so absent, DH came home and been processing it all.

I did indeed get my BFP! Faint line on 9dpo became even darker and got "pregnant" on the CB ultra digital on Saturday.

Thank you all for helping me along and listening to me! Sending baby dust to you all 🤍

WhatTheEll · 08/11/2021 12:30

@Stallsey Wow! Congratulations 🎉 🎉 xx

Stallsey · 08/11/2021 14:31

@WhatTheEll thank you lovely. So sorry to hear AF arrived and fingers crossed this month is the one!! ❤️

@Pugmumm congratulations on your BFP 😍

@emmilyb keep us updated if you test anymore, I really hope they get darker for you 🤍

@StillJustWaiting how you doing lovely? Any sign of AF or darker lines?

Xxx

emmilyb · 08/11/2021 16:00

@Stallsey ahh congratulations 🥰🥰

My lines aren't any darker

Clear blue 6 days early still says pregnant but the week indicator says not pregnant, it's not looking too good but I'm going to leave testing for a few days as I'm going insane and it's all I'm thinking about ❤️

Hope you're all doing ok xx
