@Positivefeels Looks positive to me, looks like the sort of vvfl you’d get 9/10dpo. You sure you can’t be slightly later than 8DPO?

ttcthoughts · 29/08/2023 16:45

@Positivefeels I agree the bottom two loom like faint positives :)

@LacedBouquet i really want too I just think it will end up me buying loads to get to the next step 🙈🙈🙈

Positivefeels · 29/08/2023 16:49

@Ncl31 thank you I hope so!
Just slightly confused the bottom test isn't anywhere near as strong as the middle test when they are from the same urine sample! I guess only time will tell lol

Positivefeels · 29/08/2023 16:52

@ttcthoughts thank you! I think im getting my hopes up a little bit I think!
So you guys can see something in the bottom test too? I'm getting excited lol!

Positivefeels · 29/08/2023 16:54

@LacedBouquet thanks! I really don't think it's possible I will be any later than 8 dpo at the very latest 9do

Tes004 · 31/08/2023 21:24

Retested today and bfn - I must be so unlucky with false positives - 😢

Ncl31 · 31/08/2023 21:34

@Tes004 oh im so sorry :(
that must be very frustrating for you

ttcthoughts · 31/08/2023 22:11

@Tes004 in soo sorry ☹️
hope you are ok x

LacedBouquet · 31/08/2023 22:51

@Tes004 I’m sorry it’s neg 😞 still no AF though? Not such a thing as a false positive on those tests, you definitely had HCG in your system.
I’m just thinking, see if you were on clomid, did you do a HCG trigger shot?

Positivefeels · 01/09/2023 08:41

@Tes004 how many dpo are you now?

I thought I had a very very faint positive a few days ago, but tested negative yesterday.
Today I think I have a very faint positive again 😩
I could be anywhere from 8dpo to 12dpo, possibly even 7dpo lol
I wish I could be someone that could easily wait till a missed period because its such a mind game when testing this early! I can't help myself though lol.
I'm waiting for cheap tests to come from amazon today, but I might quickly run to the chemist to buy this brand again, cos I can't possibly wait that long 😅 what do you think to this mornings test? One taken with flash, one without flash!

Good luck ladies! I have my fingers crossed for you all!

@Positivefeels I’m 8DPO today too.

I can’t see anything on your tests but I’m not the best at that. I’ve managed to not do any tests this cycle yet.
Holding out until next Friday, day after AF is due.
we fly to Florida next Saturday so I’ll either be super happy with a BFP or super happy I’ll be able to go on the rides! Either way, this cycle im not fussed

Positivefeels · 01/09/2023 09:45

@Ncl31 I think you're right, I'm probably seeing an evap line.
Wow! I wish I had your will power! Have you had any early symtoms or anything?

The past 2 days I've had really painful uncomfortable boobs!
I had this for a week before AF when I was pregnant in January! I've never had painful boobs any other time so I'm assuming I'm pregnant 😬 I've also had, twinges, cramps and lightning pains for the past 7 days, yesterday evening/night was the worst it had gotten!
I don't usually get pms twinges/cramps until maybe the day before or day of AF if I even get any at all!
I've decided to wait till the Internet cheapies arrive, the are 10miu as appose to the 25miu I've been testing with!

Ncl31 · 01/09/2023 10:30

@Positivefeels I’ve had so many months of days of disappointment so I want to avoid that if I can and just wait.
Ive had sensitive nipples for the last 5 days or so. Possibly had some twinges the last few days but I’ve tried to ignore it because sometimes I think it might just be wind! Haha
i had 24 hours of really clear stretchy cm, abit like EWCM but really clear.
I can’t ever recall having that before though. confirmed ovulation through BBT via Ovusense. My temp has remained up since then.

Positivefeels · 01/09/2023 14:15

#@Ncl31 I don't blame you! The early testing game is hard! Fingers crossed for when you test 🤞 I've just done 3 of the 10miu tests...I hate the fact the results are differing so much!!
Is this likely an evap line? It wasn't flooded or anything but I'd expect it on the other 2 aswell 🙄

@Positivefeels im not sure if they’re evaps. I’m really bad at reading tests if I’m honest.
id say try again tomorrow

Tes004 · 01/09/2023 17:09

@Positivefeels I’ve had a crap cycle with these tests - I’ve done lots of looking up and they are notorious for false positives - I had 2 clear positives followed by plenty of bfn - no period yet and keep testing but I wish I had just waited - I’ve also read on here no such thing as a false positive but there is - I know this because I had done a test last month and was positive - not even a squinted and then bloods showed that same day as under 1 ….
I hope your bfp comes soon tho -
i keep poas and I’m talking to it lol ! ‘I don’t know why I’m bothering cus your just going to be stark white again’ #lost the plot

CurlyWurly1991 · 01/09/2023 18:12

I can join you all with the confusing tests situation…
16dpo and 2 days late, BFN every test although the faintest squinter this afternoon. Ov confirmed with daily temping.
I show late on BFPs generally as my first pregnancy it wasn’t a faint positive until 18dpo.
Lots of ‘symptoms’ that come and go but I know they could be down to anything / in my head.
trying to keep myself distracted.

Tes004 · 01/09/2023 18:43

@CurlyWurly1991 so annoying isn’t it - so consuming ! Google everything even tho I’ve read it before lol !

Positivefeels · 01/09/2023 22:02

@tes I've read loads of threads on here and I can't believe how bad all tests are for evaporation lines and false positives! I do understand why they say wait till missed period!
Aww bless you, I hope you get yours soon too!

I've just gotten in from work, purposely made sure I didn't go to the toilet at all so had a good 5+ hour hold 😅😅 I think I may have another evap or very faint positive! I'm going to keep testing over next few days, I'm notnsure why I'm torturing myself 🤣 the tests were only £3 for 20.. so I'm not loosing much, just my mind! 🤣

Positivefeels · 01/09/2023 22:06

@CurlyWurly1991 do you have regular periods? I've read hormone levels go up every 48 hours, though I keep testing morning and night anyway! When do you plan on next taking a test? Fingers crossed for you!

CurlyWurly1991 · 01/09/2023 22:27

@Positivefeels that looks like a faint positive to me! Remind me how many dpo you are?
my periods are pretty regular these days, and I take my BBT so I know when I ovulated. Temps have stayed up, but I stopped temping a couple of days ago as it was starting to do my head in a bit.
I’m not a fan of the one step tests. I’ve gone back to the Frer that I had, then just bought two boots early tests. Don’t plan on buying many more so unless AF shows I think I will next take a test on Sunday when I will be 18dpo.

Positivefeels · 01/09/2023 22:37

@CurlyWurly1991 I'm convincing myself it's an evap cos I don't want to get my hopes up! Will see what the morning brings 🙈

I'm somewhere between 8 and 12 dpo, I don't test, just going from symtoms. My app predicts I'm 9dpo!

Oh thats good that your period are regular! I've ready plenty of threads where women havnt been getting positive tests until weeks after a missed period! I think you're still in with a good chance with only being 2 days late! I have my fingers crossed for you!

LacedBouquet · 02/09/2023 08:06

Unfortunately mine has turned into another chemical. I had a blazing BFP last week, tested again on FMU because I had less symptoms the last two days and it is stark white negative so I must’ve lost it at the start of the week 🙈 I’m taking progesterone so it stops me from bleeding.
This is my 3rd chemical in 4 months, I just can’t get past the 5 week mark and I don’t know why 😞

2022ttc · 02/09/2023 08:39

So sorry to read this @LacedBouquet

CurlyWurly1991 · 02/09/2023 08:44

@LacedBouquet I’m so sorry to hear that xx
