Hi, I am 9 dpo today and I have 2 ic tests in the pictures but the line is very very light so i'm really not sure if it is a positive or so light that it's a chemical or an evap. Can you see a line?

Thank you very much in advance for looking!

I can’t see anything in the photos I’m afraid, but 9DPO is still really early so you’re not out yet! I was blank at 9DPO for my last pregnancy then a faint positive by 13DPO :)

TT82 · 22/06/2023 07:49

I can see a very very light on the first photo- pink test...
when you test 11-12dpo will be a better result, even digital might give a view
Last cycle was first time I had a light positive at 11dpo only and digital at 12dpo but symptoms kicked in only at 13dpo...usually I am early detecting. It was another chemical though

Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 xx

I feel like I can see what you are seeing. It's sooo early It's hard but seriously don't rule yourself out yet. I'm 9dpo too and had squinters that aren't even visible on camera. I didnt get a proper positive that I didn't need to edit or squint to see until 13dpo last time I was pregnant. When are you due on? Baby dust 😊

Ladyinpink1 · 22/06/2023 17:56

Just seeing these responses now, thank you so much for taking the time, to reply to me ladies, I kept my fmu and managed to find a shop selling first response... (they are like gd dust in shops) anyway it was positive, still light but easier to see the line.

Hope all of you are having success ttc and baby dust to everyone 💫

@Ladyinpink1 congratulations 🎉 All the best and now take care of yourself xx

DarkCrystal85 · 22/06/2023 18:57

Aw yay. So happy and glad you didn't throw in the towel haha. Im doing a test in about an hour with a 6 hour held pee haha x

Ladyinpink1 · 22/06/2023 19:14

I didn't read your earlier message properly as I was in a bit of a tizzy about the test @TT82 i'm so sorry about your chemical. I'm sure that was a hard cycle. Hope you have good news again very soon xx

@DarkCrystal85 oh really, exciting, hopefully you get a nice clear second line. x

@Ladyinpink1 thank you for your nice words! Those are really tough ones, you pregnant one moment, next - you are not 😔 I am 41 and ttc baby 3... but it is now difficult..quality declines even if reserve really good and tests good. This cycle last before ivf in August, I am still keeping positive ☺️

DarkCrystal85 · 22/06/2023 21:42

Unfortunately stark negative still. I had a cp last cycle so it's thrown everything off this cycle and a 1w week mmc in feb and think im just so desperate but I'm not out yet so fingers crossed for everyone and good luck to you xx

DarkCrystal85 · 22/06/2023 21:43

12* week missed miscarriage in feb... darn autocorrect xx

TT82 · 23/06/2023 10:54

@DarkCrystal85 how are you doing?
So sorry to hear you went through a lot, lots s of hugs and hoping for good news for you soon! Xx

DarkCrystal85 · 23/06/2023 11:19

Didn't get a chance to check this morning as work men are here and working in the bathroom that contains the tests and pot 👀🙈 I always get better results in an evening anyway so will do another this evening. Still stark negative last night. I did get a random squinter 3 days ago but cycle day 10 today and when I was pregnant it wasn't till day 13 or so I got a good obvious positive. Thankyou, took a few months to get my head round it but its just made me want to try even more...so their little life wasn't in vain in a way. I have some strange niggles but I'm sure I symptom spot like crazy and every cycle i think I feel pregnant I'm not and every cycle I don't feel much I have been pregnant lol. For gers crossed for everyone's positives and sticky beans xx

Ladyinpink1 · 23/06/2023 22:08

@TT82 this is dc3 for me too, I was pregnant last year but unfortunately lost it at 9 weeks at the end of last year, so I have been trying since, but was worried about egg quality etc as i'm not super young. I think you still have a great chance and it happens before you appointment. Have you heard of coq10? Dh and I both started that about a month and a half ago as it helps egg quality and sperm quality mobility etc.

Sorry for the bfn @DarkCrystal85 and for your loss 💜

I hope it's too early for you and you get that bfp soon. You aren't alone in having millions of symptoms when your not preg... I had quite a few months of convincing myself too and bfn.

On a different note, I hope your bathroom work is going well 🙂

I can see that really clearly!! I think it’s your month ❤️

DarkCrystal85 · 24/06/2023 21:23

Ha I bloody hope so 😊 but fir now am telling myself these tests are trying to have ny life but will keep testing daily and then use my 25miu better test for confirmation once I've had some not squinty lines 🥴 here's hoping everyone gets their bfp and all those who have have sticky jellybeans 💕

Ladyinpink1 · 24/06/2023 21:25

Aww amazing @DarkCrystal85 definitely a good line. I am pleased for you. Congratulations! 🥰🎊 x

Thankyou. I am keeping everything crossed 🥰

TT82 · 25/06/2023 06:30

@Ladyinpink1 yes taking q10 6 months now, also Fertility Blend (has chasteberry which helped to level all my hormones), my husband too. His tests very good, but decided wouldn't hurt.
So if no successful this sycle, then ivf in august

@DarkCrystal85 it is a definite bfp!!!!! Congratulations 🎉

Ladyinpink1 · 25/06/2023 08:16

@TT82 sounds like you are doing all the right things 🙂. Do you know when you are supposed to stop the coq10?

Where are you in your cycle now? x

OP posts:
TT82 · 25/06/2023 10:29

@Ladyinpink1 no idea when to stop tbh, but read it is good at my age regardless the fertility 😁
I am on cd6, ovulation usually cd12 (with all these supplements I am like a clock, never been so stable and predictable when was young even 🙈)

Ladyinpink1 · 25/06/2023 22:07

@TT82 I have been on Google to try to figure out when to stop it, read alot of conflicting ideas so I might just stop it now.
That's good, a predictable cycle is great sign for being fertile too isn't it. Hoping for you 💗, please update us with how you get on x
