Over 40 hoping I’m imagining things…

Will give you a brief history so I don’t get flamed….
DS1 is DS2 is 5 and was a rainbow/ miracle baby following a Loooooong battle with secondary infertility and mc
since DS2 I’ve had 4 mc and decided 39 would be my cut off for ttc.
I turned 40 at the weekend and had those telltale cramps around 5 dpo and a little tiny bit of spotting 8 dpo (approx)…put it out my mind but I felt nauseated this morning so took a test…here’s the results - I did 3 & they’re all different 🤦‍♀️
opinions? Hoping I just have an overactive imagination!

I see faint lines op

ToFuckWithIt · 04/10/2022 12:44

I would definitely say positive there!

Bigslippers · 04/10/2022 12:48

I cant see any lines apart from the sark one? Is it to the left or right of the dark line? Sorry.

Bigslippers · 04/10/2022 12:48

*dark

Ange211 · 04/10/2022 12:50

I wasn’t sure about top one, could definitely see a line on middle one, nothing on bottom one 🤷‍♀️

@Ange211 I think I can see a line on middle??

mum11970 · 04/10/2022 12:57

I can’t see anything at all

cunningartificer · 04/10/2022 13:04

I can't see any lines on any of them

urrrgh46 · 04/10/2022 13:09

Get an FRER they're the most reliable! I had my youngest at nearly 45 after 3 consecutive miscarriages. Had my second to youngest at nearly 41 after one miscarriage. Good luck!!

Ange211 · 04/10/2022 13:21

A very mixed response 🤣
I am fairly sure I can see a line irl on the middle one but it remains to be seen if that’s an Evap line or a die run.
I will get a selection of decent tests tomorrow at the chemist.

As a veteran/cheapie obsessive I can see a shadow on the middle one.

Shine your phone torch behind it and you should see it more clearly.

Must be very conflicting if you’ve struggled previously. As you know, nothing at this stage is certain and you have all the options.

They all look neg to me x

lifefromhome · 04/10/2022 14:53

I can see a shadow of a line on the middle and top tests

Did a more reliable Boots own brand text yesterday with fmu & it was bfn so I’m certain I’m not with child….weird thing is…while I was upset with the appearance of the squinter on Tuesday I feel somewhat disappointed now 😢
I guess the many many many years of ttc are hard just to let go.

Thank you for the update. Perhaps worth not making 39 your cut off? I was born when my mum was 45 and pretty grateful for that😉

Ange211 · 09/10/2022 20:03

My oldest is 14 now and we’ve been ttc pretty much since he was born so I just felt totally done with the heartache tbh. This has awoken the beast though 😭
