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 😘

@PinkButtercups thank you 😊 yes I do think I implanted really late with my first pregnancy which would maybe explain the faint line if I am pregnant x

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 deffo see something very faint! Im in the exact same boat im 7dpo & can see a the faintest of line on my tests having to waits a nightmare 😩🤞🏼

DeoForty · 20/02/2023 23:42

Think I see something. My pregnancy tests were always near as dammit negative until I missed my period.

PinkButtercups · 21/02/2023 00:05

That's what I mean, could've implanted later. I have my 🤞🏼 for you!

ricketybeauty · 21/02/2023 05:01

I’m out-AF arrrived (though kindly not until after I’d uncomfortably peed in the cup to test!)🙄

BabyJays · 21/02/2023 08:32

@DTA123 it’s a nightmare waiting isn’t it! Fingers crossed for you this month too x

@DeoForty thats given me some hope thank you. I tested with a cheapie internet strip this morning at 4am (one of symptoms this month is waking silly early) but it’s bright white. No sign of af though and I’m due today. I’m less optimistic due to the bfn but I still feel pregnant somehow 😫🤪 x

@PinkButtercups thank you ☺️ BFN on a cheap internet one step strip at 4am this morning but no sign at all of af and it doesn’t feel like I’m about to come on like I usually would. VERY confusing 😭 x

@ricketybeauty Aww no I’m sorry! If you’re anything like me by this point it’s sometimes like a small relief as at least you know for sure. No sign of af for me yet but I am definitely due today as I have set 28 day cycles. I have decided to stop ALL early testing after this month if I’m not pregnant now and I will test if I am one day late as I am literally spending a fortune on tests and it’s so emotionally exhausting. Other than not drinking alcohol at all I will just go about life as usual and from what I hear that’s the best way to conceive - relax and enjoy life then out of the blue one day your period is late 😊I hope you get your bfp really soon xx

I don't see a line in the test shining it up to any light will reveal the indent line once the air hits it, it can resemble a second line. FX for your next test

BabyJays · 21/02/2023 11:22

@FertieBertie This was the fourth frer test I have opened up this month 🤪🫣 The other 3 were bright white with not even an indent or a greyish/white line. This one had a pink second line which isn’t very clear in the photo unfortunately but that is what got me excited. I tested this morning and got a bright white bfn but on an internet cheapie as I’m out of frer. Due af today so it won’t be long now until I know either way. I didn’t get a bfp until the day after my missed ag with my daughter 10 years ago so I’m hoping I’m just a late implanter and that I will be seeing a definite like soon 🙏

I feel you so hard 😂 I opened a test just the other day 🤣 but only because the screen was cracked right where the line was 🤣 I was peeing at 4am in a dark bathroom absolutely disaster now just waiting for AF to avoid that disappointment and is that a line or is it my imagination 😂

BabyJays · 21/02/2023 13:59

@FertieBertie aww bless you! Peeing at 4am is not fun! I’ve been waking at around that time for the last 3 days and have to get up as I need to go - then I have to test and waiting in the cold and dark for 3 minutes is the pits isn’t it! I really hope you get your bfp instead of af x

Update; I found a superdrug test in the drawer and tested juts now (2.30pm ish). I have been having some seriously ouch y stabbing pains in the side of he if my boobs like a needle going through so I felt the urge to pee on a stick again 🤪 Sadly, I am still none the wiser as there isn’t a definite line but from some angles I can see the hat looks like a squinter. Af is due today but I don’t have any of my usual signs it’s about to happen so I am clinging onto the hope that I implanted late. Hubby is bringing me some frer tests home tonight for me to test again tomorrow morning. Longest 2ww ever! I’ve added 2 pics of the test I’ve just done and haven’t altered the first picture at all. Why are some tests to tricky to interpret 😭🙏

Update; NOT pregnant! Af just arrived right on schedule. I am very disappointed but not that surprised. The tests don’t lie ladies . . A squinter doesn’t count unfortunately. I literally had every possible symptom from vivid dreams to cramps around implantation time etc etc. No more symptom spotting and early testing for me. I am now going to carry on ttc with a much for relaxed attitude after 9 stressful attempts so far. From now on I will only test once I miss a period and only have the odd drink during the safe 2 week period each month. I had already decided this was my last month of obsessing as it’s just too much of a let down when it turns out it be negative. Good luck to all of you still waiting it out . . I hope this is your month 😘🍀 Pancakes and wine for me now 🥞🍷
