Top test was taken at 10dpo, afternoon (probably very concentrated urine as I had such a busy day and I hadn't drunk enough). I was super surprised to see the faint line.
Bottom 3 are all today, 13dpo, morning, afternoon, evening (from top to bottom).

Surely they should be darker at 13dpo? 🙁 AF is 2 days late (I have an 11 day luteal phase). My symptoms seem to be getting stronger, boobs getting more sore this evening, quite a lot of creamy CM, and no spotting which I usually get pre AF...

Will try to get hold of a frer tomorrow but I'm not overly hopeful 🫣

Yes they are positive

Wonderwoman333 · 10/12/2022 21:53

yes positive

SillyOldBear3 · 10/12/2022 22:00

Thanks for replying! Are they too faint for 13dpo? I feel like there's barely any difference between 10dpo and 13dpo?! 😬

Get a first response if you can, they showed much stronger liners than any of my internet cheapies.

wlanbsoo · 10/12/2022 22:13

Cheap tests very unreliable, get a FRER for a better idea of line strength

SillyOldBear3 · 10/12/2022 22:54

Thanks, I'll get a frer tomorrow. Suddenly very nervous! 😶

Looks the same as my BFP at 13 dpo with my toddler who is now 20 months old!

Are these positive?..
SillyOldBear3 · 10/12/2022 23:18

@ttcnumber2x oh wow, it does! Thanks for sharing 🥰

Back in the old days (last century) Grin the rule of thumb was not to test until you were a week late. Reason being that was when you would get a decent line. That being the case your lines look fine to me given how early it is. Good luck but it sounds like you are successfully up the duff.

So the FRER is upside down but these were dipped in the same sample. You can see my FRER was obvious. The IC took a good two weeks to give an ultra thick line, really not worth using them. I’m also against the digital with weeks indicator, literally didn’t get a 3+ (meaning 5 weeks pregnant) until over 7 weeks pregnant.

She was born 8lb4 at 36 weeks too so not a small baby 😆

Northernlurker · 11/12/2022 20:52

How did it go?

ttcnumber2x · 12/12/2022 09:22

Any update@SillyOldBear3 🤞🏼

SillyOldBear3 · 13/12/2022 18:33

Thanks everyone! ❤️ I am pregnant! Took a first response on Sunday and got a fairly decent line! So it seems that, like you all said, the cheapies do work but aren't a great indicator of HCG levels!

@ChickinMarango Aw thank you, that's good to know! I got a fairly strong line on a frer on Sunday! I'll do the odd cheapie for the next couple of weeks to see if they keep getting darker!

Congratulations!

SillyOldBear3 · 14/12/2022 19:58

Just thought I'd update, I think I'm having a chemical ☹️ spotting today so took another frer and it's incredibly faint compared to the one I took on Sunday.

ttcnumber2x · 15/12/2022 10:00

Omg I'm so sorry @SillyOldBear3 😭

xogossipgirlxo · 15/12/2022 10:38

So sorry :( Wishing you all the luck in the upcoming cycles x

SillyOldBear3 · 15/12/2022 18:35

@ttcnumber2x @xogossipgirlxo
Thank you ❤️ I was only 4+6 weeks but it's never easy is it.

AF started properly today so on to the next cycle.

Wishing you lots of luck too x

Are these positive? I’m on 9 dpo but I’ve had three with faint lines on normal pregnancy strips but negative results on any other brand even the early tests, I took these yesterday and they came up with in a minute

Are these positive?..

@Co968 they look positive to me! For 9dpo they look promising! Test again in 48 hrs! (from experience, it takes 48hrs to see a real difference in line progress).

Another update too, although my December pregnancy was a chemical, I fell pregnant again in January and I'm now almost 11weeks 🥰
