Hello all. I am 45
I know... knocking on a bit hahha but been trying for four years. Failed and stupid expensive IVF.
I am 8/9 DPO and because I gave up ages ago thought I would pee on a stick because I have so many...
I mean.... really ??? Wow. What really ? Its a one step cheapo. I have my suspicions.
But wow. Line eyes required ?? Any one step cynics ?? Omg.

Over 40 and line ??

You do not need line eyes, that is a CLEAR positive! Since you have a collection, do some more for peace of mind but tentative congratulations 😁

igivein · 31/05/2024 13:01

That looks as positive as a positive thing.
If you've had the tests a while, do they go out of date?

MabelMaybe · 31/05/2024 13:02

Agreed, I'd say that's a positive, over 40 or not. Congratulations.

Strictlymad · 31/05/2024 13:04

Looks positive to me!

ColourMeBlue · 31/05/2024 13:08

That looks like a positive to me 😊

curliegirlie · 31/05/2024 13:12

No, line eyes is where you start to see lines that aren't there from starting at blank tests for too long. That is a bona fide genuine BFP, no doubt about it! Congratulations!

Marcipex · 31/05/2024 13:25

Looks good to me but maybe get a newer test. Fingers crossed 🤞🏼

Nikster8012 · 31/05/2024 16:27

OH WOW I literally can NOT believe.
I am sooooo gobsmacked.
Hopes and prayers for a sticky one... I literally can't believe I am actually writing this
8dpo and I just did another. Wowza came right up super quick. Blown away. I pray for health and it to keep strong. Oh my oh my
Thanks girls!!!! Xxx

Caaarrrl · 31/05/2024 17:16

I can never see lines on these threads - but I can see this one! Congratulations!

OnePinkDuck · 31/05/2024 18:10

No line eyes needed! You are pregnant!

congratulations!

PurpleReindeer2 · 31/05/2024 18:26

Congratulations OP. Best wishes xx

AnnieStar12 · 31/05/2024 22:33

@Nikster8012 hey lovely, I really hope this is your BFP, fingers crossed for you x

But I just have to warn you that I know someone who got terrible false positives with OneStep strips - she was getting strong lines really early which is unusual and her male partner even got a BFP result! So please do check with another brand too just to be on the safe side. Sorry to say this, I just didn't feel I could read your post and not say.

I'll keep everything crossed for you that this is it for you, as someone also in my 40s trying to get pregnant I am rooting for you!

SaltedPotato · 01/06/2024 08:21

Definitely not imagining that line! Seems really strong for 8dpo though! Got my fingers crossed for you lovely xx

Phoenix32 · 01/06/2024 16:11

Jumping in your post Nikstar8012. Looks positive to me! Congratulations 😁 Wondering if anyone on this thread could help me with their line eyes? I’m on 3rd IUI and have become so obsessed with POAS that I don’t think can I tell the difference between an Evap and a Faint Positive.

What do you all think, does this look positive? I’m 10DPO.

Over 40 and line ??
