Don't know what to think...

[anon1411]

So I have posted a few thread's about my current situation but for anyone who hasn't read heres q quick synopsis...

I take the pill every single day and have the one where you don't take a break. My periods are very irregular, I can go months without any at all. The last period I had was end of July. I didn't have one in August at all (not uncommon) but just had that gut feeling somethings been off- aka feeling very pregnant.
TIMELINE
15-17th- Bad Tummy (diarrhoea)
20th August- Horrendous Cramps- crippling
25th August- Bad Nausea (sat over the toilet for over an hour) and bad Hot Flushes
From 27th August-ish- Twinges and Pulls in my tummy.
5th dept onwards- Extreme Tiredness
07th Sept- Pink Spotting for 24 hours
09th Sept- Took a ClearBlue and got an incomplete blue positive line.
10th Sept- Took a FRER and had the faintest line appear- albeit a little close to the control line.
13th until now on and off - Boob Twinges and generally feeling uncomfortable.

I've attached photos of my tests and there are faint lines on all of them. Now I understand about Evap Lines but surely all 3 can't be Evap? I don't know... PS THE COLOURS ARE SLIGHTLY ENHANCED DUE TO EDITING JUST SO ITS EASIER FOR YOU TO SEE LINES.
❤❤

EDIT

ONE OF THE CLEARBLUE TESTS (BOTTOM IN THE PIC) WAS FROM BEFORE BUT THE OTHER CLEARBLUE IS A FRESH TEST WITHIN THE PAST DAY. I HAVENT INCLUDED THE OLD FRER TEST. THE FRER TEST YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO IS NEWER.

I feel like I can’t see any faint lines on them.. maybe get a blood test done to be sure ?

I can't see anything on any except what looks like an evap line on the bottom clear blue one. Hope you get the result you want OP

It's so hard trying to capture them on photo, they are definitely visible in person.

I'm not desperate for this to be a positive as I know sometimes people can get so invested that it's like a phantom pregnancy but for me this is not what we expected or was looking for but I have only ever felt this way once before and that was when I was pregnant with my little boy.

Not sure if this picture is better.

Perhaps wait a for days or even a week to take another test and/or book a drs appointment to get a blood test. How on earth are strangers on the internet going to know ?

Do you know when you ovulated or how pregnant you would be?

I never trust clear blue tests and that FRER could well be an indent. I had a nasty indent the other week.

Can't see anything, test again in 3/4 days

Don't know why some people are being so rude. Just asking a question, if anyone has been through similar.
thank you to everyone with kind and supportive words and advice.

I think I will leave the page if this is what I'm going to get.

It's hard to say OP. I would wait another week and test again. If your last period was end of July you could in theory be 8 weeks pregnant, and then would expect a very clear line. But with irregular bleeding on contraception it is anyone's guess!

(Also my symptoms started at approx 6 weeks for both my pregnancies and I had strong dye stealer lines by that point so if you have symptoms I would maybe expect a clear line?)

Thank you so much 🥰 maybe it's nothing and maybe I'm just feeling a bit under the weather or something?! Who knows. But the only thing I can compare it to is my first pregnancy. But like you say its hard when I have irregular periods and I'm on the pill.

Hey @anon1411,

I totally get where you are coming from. In a very similar situation to you and around exactly the same dates. I have put a thread up today asking for advice and all I have been told is that it's probably a chemical or miscarriage. I was only trying to ask how I could approach getting my doctors to look into things.
The lines on my tests have been exactly the same as yours and I am not sure what to think. My sister told me she did not get a positive test until she was around 9 week along with her youngest.

It's harder when on the pill especially if your periods are not regular. Hopefully you get the answers soon 💕

Thank you so much for being supportive on both this post and my other post. You are very kind and are understanding of the situation. Unlike some others who cannot help but be rude and make remarks.

I think I will just take a step back from it all, try not to think about it and maybe see what happens in a week or two. Maybe it's nothing at all 🤷‍♀️💕

I had lines like that on clearblue and I wasn't pregnant so I wouldn't trust them.
I'm not too sure about your frer though. There looks like there is something but do it again in 2 days on the frer and if it's positive you should get a clear line.

@anon1411 that's okay. It's a horrible situation to be in. The not having answers is incredibly horrible I must admit. Hopefully we both get the answers we need soon.
Honestly sometimes people just need to be mindful of what they say. It's not hard to be polite and mindful of over people. You never know what's going on in somebody's life and so I try and hate that in mind in everyday life and approach every situation in that mindset. I am here if you need anything. Feel free to reach out. I wish there was a way you could PM people on here.
Sending hugs and support your way 💕💕

I can see a line on that FRER if I zoom in. The only thing to do is keep taking tests daily. If you’re pregnant, the line will get darker.

I’m just wondering if you had diarrhoea, is it possible that it stopped your pill working and that’s how you could be pregnant?

I see the line …mine on first response was like that for weeks so just didn’t a digital one . Here’s my black and white was as well … I’m not 20 weeks pregnant x

omg my post makes no sense lol 😂 I am 20 weeks pregnant and all my tests where extremely faint for weeks .

Yes thats what my thoughts are, I was sick one night too, nothing major just the once but I wonder if that's counteracted my pill 🤔

The FRER one is hard to see unless you look closely, I will give it a bit of time then test again just to see.

Thanks 🤞

Oh bless you, I understood what you meant 😀 but yes thats exactly like mine although yours is a bit stronger than mine so 8m just going to wait a while. I feel a few days doesn't seem to make much difference. Maybe a week or two will make it clearer to see if it is positive or not 🙏

I ovulated technically on allay 11th had sex the day before and day after and that was my test on the 27th May. It was a looonggg few weeks. I took the mini strip ones and it was just visible and everyone said it was an evap line but obv not x

Any update OP? Did you test again? ❤️

@2ndTimeRound90
I haven't actually tested since no, I bought some more tests this morning, so will try one either tonight or first thing tomorrow 🙂
I contacted the doctors as I've had a mixture of positive and negative since but they can't see me until 4th October so 🤦🏼‍♀️

Good luck OP, whichever way you want the result to go.

Have you tried a digital test that comes up with the word pregnant or not pregnant so you aren't trying to read if there's a line?

Although it's now a week or so later, so if it is positive, the line should be stronger.

Do you know what result you're hoping for? I was on the pill (3 weeks on 1 week off) and didn't get my period. Tests were negative but I went to the dr as I had never missed a period unless I was pregnant. He said if the test was negative it was right. But I couldn't shake the feeling so I stopped taking my pill as I was concerned if I was pregnant it could harm the pregnancy.

4 weeks later I most definitely WAS pregnant, and from dating scans & the fact I went overdue, I definitely wasn't pregnant that first month!

So my advice is be cautious if you stop taking your pill just in case - we only had sex once that month!
