So annoyed with myself

I'm so frustrated with my self right now!!

This is my first cycle after a 5 month break (ttc 18 months before that) and I said I wasn't going to be symptom spotting, or any of that business, but guess who's been testing since 6dpo?

You guessed it.....ME!

I've been plagued with dodgy tests as well this week so my crazy brain is saying "well maybe it was HCG in your system blah blah blah" so , like a lunatic, I continue testing!

I need a lobotomy!

Rant over.

Hey - can I join? I'm 5 DPO and I have those easy at home tests ready for next week. Now I'm thinking don't use them just in case! That false positive is horribly dark!

I've managed to get some first response on Amazon. Trying to hold off until 14 DPO (fat chance but if I can at least wait until next week I reckon that's good going!).

@overthinkersanonnymus Wow that line is even darker than the other ones you posted previously, and way clearer than any evap I've had on them. There is definitely dodgy batches of easy@homes at the moment but don't count yourself out just yet 🤞 x

@Weddingblues23 I love a lines eyes threat too, shock haha.

@Daisies12 oh I'm so sorry for your loss x

@ThelastRolo20 welcome to the easy@home thread of hell!

@Sez281 I know! There isn't even a pattern to them. They do what they like!

@overthinkersanonnymus haha thank you that made me laugh. I did one today at 5DPO to check and it was negative so fingers crossed they're alright. I used the same batch to track HCG going down after my 12 week MC in October so I should be good!

ThelastRolo20 · 05/12/2023 13:03

@overthinkersanonnymus how many DPO are you now?

@ThelastRolo20 I'm 10dpo so most likely to be out now this cycle. I'm really sorry about your ordeal in October x

I've just had another brand delivered and it's stark white negative.

I'm not testing again now this month. These blue tests are 10ml sensitivity so if there was anything to catch, they'd catch it.

I hope I don't ever see another easy@home test for as long as I live 😂😂

Good luck girls x

@overthinkersanonnymus all I'd say is at 10DPO when I was pregnant last time my FMU only brought up a squinter of a line, could barely see it until 11 DPO. It's negative now but maybe one more test in a couple of days to be sure? Implantation may not happen until day 9/10 DPO! And it takes a couple days for the hormone to build 😊

Beccylou94 · 05/12/2023 17:57

Ok back again. 12 dpo. what do we think?

So annoyed with myself
Beccylou94 · 05/12/2023 18:10

@overthinkersanonnymus I really wouldn't count yourself out at 10dpo when we aren't supposed to test until like 14dpo. Maybe just wait a few days?

@Beccylou94 girl I think that's another dodgy one. It's all bitty and not a full line.

Try another one in 4 hours and see if it's any different x

@overthinkersanonnymus it is full irl. I do plan to test again. This is a fresh batch !

ThelastRolo20 · 05/12/2023 18:22

@Beccylou94 I agree with @overthinkersanonnymus that the line looks a bit odd. Do another test in a few hours or in the morning - good luck!

@Beccylou94 Jesus Christ!!

Check the batch numbers on the packets. Are they the same as your last box?

OP posts:
Beccylou94 · 05/12/2023 18:28

@overthinkersanonnymus nope different batch (checked as soon as it came as I was just going to return them). If this is another false positive I'm just going to explode 😅

Right, well I'll see you back here at 10pm then @Beccylou94 😂

OP posts:
Beccylou94 · 05/12/2023 18:43

If I can stay up that late @overthinkersanonnymus 😂

Beccylou94 · 05/12/2023 21:39

Well I caved a little early. Shadow line now, won't bother with a picture as you can't see it on camera. Does that mean I'm out again or is it just that it's so late in the day?

Beccylou94 · 05/12/2023 21:40

And when I wiped there was a little bit of blood

ThelastRolo20 · 06/12/2023 05:16

@Beccylou94 how confusing! It's so hard but all you can do is test this morning with a brand that isn't easy at home. I'll definitely be avoiding them

Beccylou94 · 06/12/2023 13:05

So now I just don't know. Had a little bleed this morning on wipe but nothing since. Was very light on b and m cheapie today with fmu. Don't know if I was just line eyesing

RWSS · 06/12/2023 22:43

Same here, I did cheap test, stalk white. Am due on the 10th but today have felt like I'm coming on and now had bit of blood.
