Clearblue early, please reassure me

[naggy095]

The line came up within the timeframe and I've had evap lines on these before so I know they're not very reliable. But this is positive isn't it?? I don't whether to tell/show DP when he's home or wait till tomorrow when I do a pink dye test. Trying to not get my hopes up too much

Nice and thick looks positive to me... But yeah they are famous for evaps... Maybe wait for pink dye one tomorrow?

@Kellyaust do you remember me from last month where we both vowed to never use these clearblue tests again 🤣 my DP hid all my tests at my request a few days ago and I couldn't wait any longer so popped out to buy a test. But yes think I'll wait till tomorrow 😬

Omg yeah I thought I recognised your name haha how many dpo are you?

Hi @naggy095 looks positive to me yay! If you can, get a digital clearblue one xx

@Kellyaust I'm either 10 or 11dpo. Had stark negative early tests on Tuesday though so I'm still apprehensive

@Summer2424 thank you 😊 I only have the weeks indicator digital which isn't as sensitive but I do have a FRER so I'll use that tomorrow with fmu. Trying to not get too excited

@naggy095 good luck and keep this thread updated with your result tomorrow, I had to be stupid n have no will power and test today at 6dpo to get my obvious bfn 😂😂

Looks positive to me 🤞🤞 looking forward to the update with a FRER tomorrow

So yes looks like I am pregnant, but unfortunately I think it will be a chemical pregnancy. The bottom FRER is with fmu and the top was taken at midnight. And then the second pic is the fmu FRER against a boots early test. The lines should be strong today as I'm 12dpo but they're very very faint so I'm not optimistic at all. Also having lots of cramping.

Very sad but at least I know I can get pregnant.

Not necessarily @naggy095 where there's a line there's hope and many people don't get a strong line yet, keep testing over the next few days at the same time of day.... You might have higher hcg on an evening instead of fmu... Don't lose hope yet. I know easier said than done... I haven't slept I'm convinced im in perimenopause 😩

@Kellyaust thank you I appreciate your words ☺️ I'm going to stop testing for a couple days I think. Hopefully I can get a line progression, AF is due Monday.
Sorry you couldn't sleep, it's horrible when you have so much on your mind when ttc 😢 what cycle ttc are you on? I was convinced I was perimenopause because I had certain symptoms but obviously not lol

It's my 2nd after my mmc in may. That's also why I think I could have low progesterone. This happened lastnight at 6dp with really intense pms cramps and last month I had 8dpo spotting too. Never happened to me before so I'm terrified

@Kellyaust sorry to hear of your mmc 😞was your 8dpo spotting the same as this 6dpo one? The fact it's pink and very little amount seems promising! I've had quite a lot of intense cramps today so don't count yourself out just yet. Also I've been testing my progesterone with pdg tests and they were negative 10 and 11dpo, meaning it had dropped, but here I am with a bfp (retested with a cheapie and that is clear as day)! When do you think you'll test? It's so hard trying to take a break from testing when you're in the TWW

My 8dpo one was more like a clump of blood, this is obviously light pink and I've had no more so far... I'm so down in the dumps thinking something is happening out of my control 😪
What's pdg tests? I could test at home?

Wow that's amazing I'm glad you've got a better line now when we're you stark white negative til? I'm 7dpo now so maybe start 9dpo....if AF hasn't come by then. What are your cramps like? Minare like full on AF cramps... Not light cramping at all

Also do you mind me asking how old you are and how long you've been ttc? Might give me some hope

Op my tests were light enough in the beginning. Get a blood test for reassurance

I had similar faint lines when I was 14dpo, day AF was due, then they got fainter and then they got stronger a week later. And I had cramping then. 9+2 now. I'd hold out hope and take another test in few days.

@Kellyaust it's these tests

www.amazon.co.uk/Fertility-Progesterone-Strips-Ovulation-Double/dp/B08B698TDW

You take one on day 5 of your cycle to get a baseline measurement and then from 7-10dpo you test every morning and if they're positive that means your progesterone levels are high enough to confirm successful ovulation and that it's sustained enough to support a pregnancy.
I'm 28 and on cycle 3, I know for a fact that I have some hormonal imbalance though so I wouldn't be surprised if it does turn out to be a chemical. I have everything crossed for you that the bleeding is implantation bleeding 🤞🏼 xx

@Ella31 @Peony654 thank you both. I'm going to wait till Sunday again to test with a digital. I know every pregnancy is different but I had a dye stealer by this point with my daughter so I'm worried

I'm 14 weeks with twins and I didn't get a dye stealer for ages. Every pregnancy is different

So a test this morning is now even fainter and I'm getting intense painful cramps. Preparing myself for a chemical. I'm not going to test anymore and just wait for it. So upset 😞
