Can anyone see a squinter? 🙏

Hi wveyine

So, hubby and I have been ttc our second child for 9 months now and each month the tww is sooooooo long. This month I have had so many crazy symptoms such as diarrhea for the last 6 days, stabbing pain in my hip for 2 days, severe exhaustion and so many more! I have tested daily since 7dpo (I I used clearblue ovulation tests this month for the first time) and not had a hint of a line. Today, I am 12dpo so I was starting to lose hope but as I say here almost nodding off and realizing that this is not normal for me at all I decided to test again. Can anyone see a squinter?? 🙏 I will obviously test again in the morning but I would love to know your thoughts. Thank you and good luck to all of you in your tww 😘

The dozens of early bfps make it so hard when you don’t see one by 12dpo. Thanks for the reply. I’m hoping this is a faint line that will darken by tomorrow 🙏

I think I can see what you're looking at but would want to try again every morning for a few days to be sure, good luck!

newmummie · 19/02/2023 19:59

Definitely can see something, but very very faint, although at 12dpo I would expect the line to be a little darker, retest in a few days and good luck, sending my wishes 🤍

@newmummie I had sharp hip pains 9dpo and 10dpo so I’m thinking that could have been implantation as I have heard that this pain can be felt in the hips sometimes. I’m hoping this is the case as this would explain why I’m only just seeing a squinter at 12dpo. With my daughter I tested positive at 15dpo (one day after missed af) and my dating scan put me back by a week meaning I must have implanted really late. Maybe I’m just a late implanter. I will test again tomorrow. Thanks ☺️

Update; I tested this morning (12 hours after I took the one step test) using a FRER and I thought I could see a squinter again 😫🤪 Anyway, I took it apart (I know, I know 🤪🫣) and I’m pretty sure it’s positive. I have attached 2 photos below. I am due af tomorrow and will test again tomorrow morning if no sign of af by then. I really do feel pregnant this month with the terrible bloat, vivid dreams for 7 days, diarrhea for over a week and extreme tiredness but without a definite positive test I just daren’t get my hopes up. If any of you can see a positive line on the FRER please let me know as I need some positivity to keep me going until tomorrow 🙏

I'm not really sure, but I seem to be in the same boat as you! No AF, but very similar stuff going off. Tested today not with FMU and I feel like mine looks a bit like yours - kind of something!

Just now waiting for AF to come overnight or I'll do one with FMU tomorrow.

@ricketybeauty how many dpo or what cycle day are you on? I’m 13dpo today (cycle day 27 if a regular 28 day cycle). It’s sooooo frustrating isn’t it! Feel free to post your test pic if you what a second opinion. I really hope you get your bfp tomorrow and not af 💐 x

I do see a line. Not so much on your latest picture until held up by the window.
I would've thought it'd be a bit darker if your period is due but then again it might not be either.

Good luck to you and 🤞🏼.

ricketybeauty · 20/02/2023 16:38

@BabyJays I actually don't know as I didn't OPK but based on my CM I think my app wasn't too far out and it puts me at 14 DPO. My cycles go between 22-29 days though and I'm on 27 now!

Fingers crossed you get something more concrete tomorrow too!
