Hello ladies!
No matter how early it is, no matter how many symptoms you have or don't have drop your tests below and let us make a testing group and be each other's eyes.

I will test on Monday, which is the day AF is to arrive (... unless I'm just too curious and test during the weekend).

Baby dust to all of you!

Not sure if anyone is on this thread still but I need some advice!

After my indent line I posted on here earlier this week, I’ve had a few negatives and then yesterday/ this morning I’ve had three more lines. They all look faint and I’m not sure they have colour. What I want to know is what are the chances of having three indents on three different brands, or is it possible this is a chemical?

I’m 12/13dpo today so would be expecting a strong line by now.

Good morning ladies!

Married life is weird... My name just doesn't sit right with me lol Hmm
I hope everyone is doing good testing wise?! what's happening, let me know. I feel like I've missed out on so much!

I tested Sunday and thought I saw a line but tested again this morning and nothing. Maybe I'm just destined to have evap lines or something??? Sad I've no signs of anything the past couple of weeks, uterus seems to have ghosted me haha

@Charl881 I can see a line without having to click on the picture! Keep us posted in the next few days!

allthingssparkly · 29/03/2022 19:40

How are you @Shansmith1412?

I'm not opk testing or anything this cycle, just going with the flow but not feeling hopeful if I'm honest 😩😩

Period should be due either 8/9th April. Hoping she doesn't make an appearance 🤣

Shansmith1412 · 30/03/2022 11:17

@allthingssparkly to be honest I'm just really fed up. If I'd have known it was going to take this long I'd have taken my implant out earlier 😩

I've heard of a method called SMEP that's supposed to be really affective so I might try that if an when I finally get a period 🤣

Hope you're holding up okay 👍🏻

allthingssparkly · 30/03/2022 19:21

@Shansmith1412 So sorry your fed up and there has been no sign of AF.

I have a cold and a chesty cough at the moment so feeling abit rough 😩

I'm not hopeful for this cycle if I'm honest 😕

allthingssparkly · 31/03/2022 16:13

Honestly I can't tell you how weird it feels to have seen this but my son came home from school today and took a fortune cookie out of the cupboard he ate the cookie and I heard him reading out loud what the little piece of paper said from inside. He passed it to me and this is what it said (see attached) 🥺🥺

I mean call me abit strange but honestly the thing I have been wishing for the most is actually in a fortune cookie my son opened, could you imagine if this actually comes true this cycle 🤍🤞

Shansmith1412 · 05/04/2022 10:19

@allthingssparkly That's so sweet! Have you tested recently? Or signs of AF???? I know you said she was due this week.

I'm still sat in the dark over here, to be honest I'm low on tests so that's an excuse to stop worrying and enjoy myself as much as I can! x

em123456789 · 05/04/2022 21:33

Hi I need testing eyes! Period was due today, took this test 10mins ago and the line showed up straight away, only a cheap strip test from tescos. Sorry so hard to get a pic 😂😂

Hey ladies, hope ur all well
I was scrolling through posts on here feeling really deflated and lost, I didn't want to impose on someone else's ask for advice with my own stuff so to see this one that's inviting discussion was an unexpected relief to just share! So Thanks to the original poster.

It's been a mix bag of emotions this morning, like you guys I'm a POAS addict, I've accepted my obsession and yes, in between the evaps and seeing lines that arnt there, I'll also even pee on an opk once in a while whilst waiting for the preg test to develop just to see at test with 2 lines on it 🙈😂

But this morning I took my usual IC and there was a Pink second line. Not dark but deffo not a faint evap!! I was shocked and excited grabbed my frer that have been sitting in the cabinet forever waiting for this moment to confirm...and it's negative!!! WWWWHATTT THE TWWWWIG!! 😞

Top pic attached is the IC with the neg frer underneath. So frustrating :( I feel so lost and deflated

Sorry ladies I just needed to get that out

Thanks for your time

Xxxx

Hiya! So glad this thread exists! AF due on Friday and wondering if anyone else can see the faintest of lines on this? Had a MC in December so very nervy!

Obsessive testers welcome!
Seajelly4life · 06/04/2022 09:50

@em123456789 I can defo see lines on yours!

em123456789 · 06/04/2022 09:52

@Seajelly4life I can see a line 😁😁

Going to get a frer test today, very scared for the results as I've seen so many people say about freedom strip tests giving false positives, anyone have any experience with freedom strip tests?

Shansmith1412 · 06/04/2022 10:21

Hello ladies and welcome to obsessive testing!😅
@em123456789 I can 100% see a line, I would tests again tomorrow oe something to see if it gets any stronger but congratulations 🎊

@gigi88 do you have anymore tests to try again? That's so strange how you've got 2 different results!! Keep us updated

@Seajelly4life I can definitely see a faint line! Exciting times, congratulations 🎊

Seajelly4life · 06/04/2022 10:37

@em123456789 let us know if you do an FRER! I don’t know anything about false positives on the strips but hopefully someone will.

@Shansmith1412 I really didn’t know if anyone would see it, argh, thanks! I am going to try not to test again until Friday (yeah right 😂)

Scol90x · 06/04/2022 10:52

Thank god for threads like these, it’s not the type of obsession you want to lay bare for friends and family 🙈🤣.

Hoping someone can help. Tested last night with easy@home and saw a vvvvvvvvfl. This mornings FMU one was also vvv faint but after the time frame got darker. Thing is, my FRER from this mornings FMU was definitely bfn!

Obviously I tested again with SMU, but I don’t think I waited long enough - lucky if it was a 3HH 🙈.

Any advice or experience welcome!

Obsessive testers welcome!
Gigi88 · 06/04/2022 10:54

@em123456789 @Seajelly4life

I can see lines on both your tests guys!!! Exciting times fx both of your lines will be darker in a couple days :D grab a frer that should deffo show with those tests. Gd and let us no how u get on

@Shansmith1412

Yea I'll try and take another in a few hours with no drinking. I'm scared will be the same 🙈 i want it to be real 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Shansmith1412 · 06/04/2022 11:08

@Seajelly4life good luck holding off till then🤣 don't know how you're coping 🙈

Shansmith1412 · 06/04/2022 11:10

@Scol90x that looks exactly like mine from the weekend! I'll attach a photo.
I really thought it was something but I did a clear blue and one step and bothered nothing since 😥

Obsessive testers welcome!
em123456789 · 06/04/2022 11:13

Just got a clear negative on a frer 😭😭 think it might have been too good to be true and a false positive, do you think test again tomorrow?

Seajelly4life · 06/04/2022 11:30

Aww @em123456789 this whole process is so maddening! What would cause false positives though? It’s not over until AF arrives! Are you normally regular?

Seajelly4life · 06/04/2022 11:33

I am desperate for an FRER now but not actually sure where to get one from near me, nearest boots is a bit of a trek and supermarkets seem to have own brands or clear blue

Shansmith1412 · 06/04/2022 12:00

@em123456789 I'd definitely test again in a few days!

@Seajelly4life I bought FRER from amazon but I've stopped buying those because they kept giving me evap lines and giving me false hope! I wouldn't know where else to buy them!

em123456789 · 07/04/2022 15:25

@Seajelly4life did you take another test?
That's false positive really knocked me down yesterday, but going to try again this month although haven't gotten AF yet but still testing negative

StepMumto1 · 07/04/2022 18:49

I got a faint positive in the evening of 8dpo.. I then got a darker one on 9dpo fmu (both FRER). I also did a clearblue digital (ones that show how many weeks) with my second morning urine after a 3hr ish hold and it was 'pregnant 1-2'. Since then I have done a few more (I'm 10dpo today) and tested this morning with an FRER, Boots early detection and clearblue triple check. FRER, Boots and the strip test of clearblue all came back positive (photo) but the digital one came back negative??? I'm honestly so confused! Why would I get a 'pregnant 1-2' and then 'not pregnant' using the same type of test??

Seajelly4life · 07/04/2022 19:18

Ok so panic stations. I did the attached test this morning with FMU and could defo see a line. This pic was about an hour after I took the test though as I stupidly forgot to take one, how does the at affect things?

And now…. I just did a LFT and also got a bloody line on that! Is this dangerous? So gutted! 😭
