Thanks everyone! This game is so shit haha.

I happened to look at my 9dpo test today, obviously i know I shouldn't read tests qfter the time but why does it have to look like this when I still haven't had a clear bfp on any IC ( waiting for the weekend to buy some more FRERs if af still isn't here.

I'm looking at this test thinking, there's colour there etc but it is 4 days after taking it so, I know it doesn't actually mean anything hahaha. Still a cruel joke none the less!

I found the IC didn’t start working for me til a few days after I had a bfp on FRER.
OmgIThinkILikeYou · 24/01/2022 11:51

Ooh thank you! Giving me some hope! Wish I had just sprung for some more frers but went for a 20 pack of cheapie instead. DP will murder me if I buy anymore before the weekend hahaha

4 days is quite long, but I've often checked an hour or so after. Do another internet cheapie. You should try hold for a few hours

Oh yeah 100% not reading that as q pos, just an example of the tricks we have to put up woth during the tww haha.

IC are new as far as I can see, going to take one this pm, currently holding going to try and last it out for 3 hours. Will keep you qll updated.

I do have LOADS of creamy cm, cervix feels higher than 2 days ago which I'm trying to not over analyse but let's just say, if someone went through my search history today, they would thunk I had a fetish Grin

Here is this afternoon on IC, my eye is catching something but I don't know if it's just my mind playing tricks.

What do you guys think?

I'm sorry I don't see anything on your most recent one.

Chanel05 · 24/01/2022 14:36

Sorry the recent one looks negative.

I used one of those brand last cycle and got a false bfp. I'll never use them again.

OmgIThinkILikeYou · 24/01/2022 14:39

These are rubbish tests, the reviews aren't great in amazon either haha. Will wait abd see what happens but will let you all know if bfp comes or af gets me.

Thank you all for messaging, this thread has kept me somewhat sane over the past couple of days!

Best cheapie I've used is the strips from home bargains 3 for 79p.
OmgIThinkILikeYou · 24/01/2022 14:47

Ooh thank-you! I will go have a look. Need to get through this week without af showing up!!

OP posts:
irishfarmer · 24/01/2022 14:49

That's a pity, it's negative. I used these ones:

www.amazon.co.uk/50-Ultra-Early-Pregnancy-earlier/dp/B0026RKBWM/ref=sr_1_6?crid=QDHXIBDH5U2E&keywords=one%2Bstep%2Bhcg%2Bpregnancy%2Btests&sprefix=one%2Bstep%2Bhcg%2B%2Caps%2C40&th=1&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&qid=1643035547&sr=8-6

They were accurate the 3 times I've been pregnant. And they are so cheap you don't have to worry about using them up! Looked v similar to the ones the hospital used.

OmgIThinkILikeYou · 25/01/2022 09:15

Morning All

Still no sign of AF and still really creamy cm and cervix feels high. Did another IC this am, I think there may be the tiniest hint of a line but nothing I can see through the camera and dp can't see it at all so probably all in my head.

Going to do another this afternoon after a good hold.

How are you all getting on?

When is AF due?

OmgIThinkILikeYou · 25/01/2022 12:23

Today x

OP posts:
irishfarmer · 25/01/2022 12:35

If it is a sensitive test it should be showing something substantial enough by now if AF is due today. But it's not over until AF arrives.

Jayjane79 · 25/01/2022 12:45

My one steps. On 14dpo the day AF was suppose to arrive I got 2-3 weeks on a digital. 17dpo today I think if I took a digital it may show 3+ , I've never had tests this strong with my previous pregnancies. I had a bfp 8dpo on an frer and a clear blue digital 1-2 weeks and a pregnant (I did 2 different types of digital same brand).

OmgIThinkILikeYou · 25/01/2022 12:54

These are just cheap sticks, no idea how sensitive they are but the reviews I have read online say they are best 3 days after missed period so don't think they are great haha.

Here's mine from this afternoon, obviously I have played with it the pics etc, I'm sure something but probably in my head.

I don't like them easy at home I had 3 bad evaps in a row last month. This is why I bought the one step sensitive but the best are the ones from home bargains. They've picked my pregnancies up a day after an FRER.
OmgIThinkILikeYou · 25/01/2022 14:43

I think I just got my bfp!!!

Still faint but I have put the 4 last tests taken in a row (bottom one is just now)

What do you think?

Rhis is if you can...hold your wee now for a good 3/4 hours and run go get an FRER. I don't trust these tests at all. Or get a home bargains ACCU.
BlanketyBlanks · 25/01/2022 15:07

@OmgIThinkILikeYou yes I can see it!!
