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!

Me again... has anyone used the acutest early tests? I can only get these in the shop by me.

User65412 · 22/02/2022 09:13

@thebirdinthecave In my last pregnancy my line was extremely faint to start with and everything was fine! Maybe test again in a couple of days (says me who tests every day at least 😂)

TheBirdintheCave · 22/02/2022 09:18

@User65412 I already have the second FRER lined up for tomorrow haha. Even if it's just a teeny bit darker I'll be happy and my husband can always get more.

MiaTTC2 · 22/02/2022 09:24

@TheBirdintheCave I agree with @User65412, I can barely see it too, but it's true, a line is a line.

@Coastaldreamer, welcome! It hasn't happened to me, but I know it has happened to others. Besides, 9DPO is very early, so we'll see what happens the following days 😊

MiaTTC2 · 22/02/2022 09:27

@TheBirdintheCave that's so great! My husband loses patience a lot easier lol! If I get 2 BFNs, even if there's still time he says "that's it, no more, if you're late you'll test, this is just so frustrating!" ... and I know he's dying for that baby No2

TheBirdintheCave · 22/02/2022 09:56

@MiaTTC2 Mine is utterly sceptical of everything but willing to humour me I think. Even when we had a clear positive with our son he doubted it haha.

Charl881 · 22/02/2022 09:59

Mine doesn’t even know about my testing addiction!!!

BuchananBaby · 22/02/2022 10:22

BFN for me this morning which sucks but this is the 2nd day I've tested negative on a covid test so I can finally get out the house 🥳! I'm working but when I'm done I'm going to wander round the shops 😂😂

Charl881 · 22/02/2022 10:47

@BuchananBaby isn’t it the weirdest thing desperately hoping for a second line on one test while hoping you don’t get a second line on another test! I had my TWW during covid isolation last month, we had to do the full 10 days

Huffle · 22/02/2022 10:55

@Charl881 mine doesn’t either, he thinks I’ve only done two tests this month 🤣🤣 bless him.
Waiting for my Amazon delivery so I can torture myself with more faint non-progressing lines. 14dpo now, AF officially late but no idea what’s going on. Wish it would either hurry up and arrive or these tests would get stronger, I hate not knowing!!

Charl881 · 22/02/2022 10:56

@Huffle mine thinks I wait until I’m late Grin

Oh no hope they arrive soon, the not knowing is the worst.

Huffle · 22/02/2022 11:03

This was yesterday’s.. should it not be much darker than this at 13/14dpo. I’m sure it was the other times

Obsessive testers welcome!
Charl881 · 22/02/2022 11:52

@Huffle as long as it’s getting darker I wouldn’t worry. If you can afford it, I would do a digital weeks indicator one and do one a week until 3+ then stop. That’s what I did with my DS, saved driving myself mad with lines!

TheBirdintheCave · 22/02/2022 11:57

@Huffle That's a great line! :D Congrats!

BuchananBaby · 22/02/2022 12:33

@Charl881 it's so strange isn't it! I think it's made me test more because I was in the house not working. That must have been terrible doing the full 10 days!

@huffle that's a fantastic line 🥳

MiaTTC2 · 22/02/2022 13:16

@TheBirdintheCave mine too! I kept telling him "a line is a line" but he closed his ears and said "I'll get excited after the first ultrasound!" ... which he was. He really believed it then, he said "so you're really pregnant!"

@Huffle I could see the line even without opening the picture!

@BuchananBaby yayyy about the Covid test! Lol true, that's the one BFN that makes us happy! And you're right, being stuck at home close to all those FRER, cheapies etc., Is not helping at all with the addiction.

By the way, my mom just saw the one last clear blue I have left and she freaked out. "YOU ARE PREGNANT!?" I had to calm her down, I told her I tested and it was negative, I'm just keeping this one just in case, because my nausea hasn't stopped yet and now I'm late as well (which is probably normal for me at the moment) and she said "well, if you are it doesn't matter."

LOL! Really? it doesn't matter??? 😂

TheBirdintheCave · 22/02/2022 13:56

@MiaTTC2 Wow what a thing to say! 😂

Charl881 · 22/02/2022 14:25

@MiaTTC2 hilarious! Bless her.

My MIL found the wrapper of a pregnancy test of mine once. Rather than ask about it directly she took an unusual level of interest in my drinking habits!

Cruzxo · 22/02/2022 14:27

Me again 🥺🥺 I’m 10DPO today what do you ladies think to this? X

Obsessive testers welcome!
Coastaldreamer · 22/02/2022 14:27

@Cruzxo can see the faintest of lines x

TheBirdintheCave · 22/02/2022 14:28

I see it @Cruzxo :)

Huffle · 22/02/2022 14:36

@Charl881i’ve just ordered some digitals. Driving myself batty here, I know there’s a clear line but I still think it’s faint for 14dpo and hasn’t got darker last few days. I do feel sick but my DM’s staying for half term so it’s probs stress 🤣

@Cruzxo I can see a line but I have had quite a few of the frer ones with indents which is annoying. Does it look pink to you? I think if you can see any hint of pink it’s positive. Fingers crossed!!x

MiaTTC2 · 22/02/2022 14:43

@Charl881 which is why we need better hiding places for such things lol!

@Cruzxo I see a line too, and I agree with @Huffle, it's very light, but even if the picture didn't catch it, if you can see some color it's not an indent.

allthingssparkly · 22/02/2022 14:44

These don't pick up HCG do they? From Home Bargains. 😬😬😬

Obsessive testers welcome!
Charl881 · 22/02/2022 14:46

@allthingssparkly very much a BFP!! Congrats! How many dpo are you?

@Cruzxo definitely a line, could be an indent but worth testing every day to see if it gets stronger. 10dpo still very early (says me who is gutted to have a BFN at 9dpo!)
