How reliable are easy @ home tests?
I came back yesterday from holiday and caved in and tested :/
First one was just with warm water to test the batch (done this morning)
Second one was last night at about 8dpo
Third one was this morning at about 9dpo

The lines appeared within 2-3 minutes but maybe they're meant to be darker? Could also be evap as I'm new to this I'm not sure!

I got my positive at 9dpo with easy @ home earlier this month - mine were a lot lighter than yours and have only really started to get dark (as dark as control line) when I officially missed my period on 16dpo this week!! You've got very nice lines for 9dpo - congratulations😊

Starting to get impatient now haha. Only 8DPO, and luckily we are away and I have no tests, so I’ll be testing Sunday at 11DPO. I feel absolutely nothing though, so not a clue what that means. I don’t think I felt anything in my last pregnancy though, other than I had a super anxious wobbly about 2 days before I tested and later realised that was probably hormones 😂 but I’m so relaxed on holiday now I feel great 😂

LS888 · 12/09/2024 13:20

@Rrain congratulations they look positive to me ❤️

LS888 · 12/09/2024 13:21

@MrsKurz the wait is horrible isn’t it!! I’m only 5DPO and I’m already getting impatient 🤣

wohoo!! That’s great news. Keep us updated how it goes

Rrain · 12/09/2024 13:59

Thank you ladies! I'm hopeful now and I really hope it sticks Smile
Wishing everyone good luck 🤞

MrsKurz · 12/09/2024 14:58

Ok ladies now I’m really confused. I’m 8DPO today, and I’ve DEFINITELY got spotting today, and a sort of crampy feeling but it’s not painful. I’ve attached a pic that I got when I wiped (marked as sensitive).

my period is not due til next Tuesday, but I don’t know whether testing now would be way too soon

Also is it possible I ovulated 2 days sooner before the first temp rise and not at the second one when the app predicted? That would make me 11dpo and the period showing up more likely

Just a little rant, we’re in a valley in Austria and I just drove 10KM to the nearest pharmacy who DO NOT SELL ANY MENSTRUATION PRODUCTS?! What?! They could not even tell me where to buy any… but there was a supermarket 1 min round the corner so I got some and a pregnancy test…

I’ll see how the rest of today and tonight pan out if I test in the morning. I haven’t had anymore spotting (just a tiny bit of pink discharge), but it feels like AF is on her way so 🤷‍♀️. 8DPO feels SO early for AF

Hello! Hope you don’t mind me joining in.. we are on cycle 1 of TTC #2. I told myself I would be super chilled but nope can’t help myself have been testing my LH with my strips that I bought when TTC #1. I only started testing a few days ago on CD 15 as I wasn’t sure if I had missed ovulation but it seems to be rising. Funny enough my strips are actually out of date by a month so will see how we go this month. If it doesn’t work I’m going to buy more for next month! Premom is telling me I’m on 1DPO but I don’t think I am yet! These are my tests so far l. Expected this mornings test to have risen by now but nope staying the same 🤷‍♀️ any thoughts? We DTD on Mon and also going to tonight 🤞

I am taking a month off testing, and just relaxing. Off on holiday over my fertile window, so just going to do things naturally and without pressure (hopefully!) for one cycle.

moosey89 · 12/09/2024 17:58

@Floomobal have a lovely relaxing holiday 😊

@Rrain id say that’s a bfp!
I found out 3 days ago at 10DPO this month and had a vvvfl. Lighter than yours I’d say (pic attached) so currently just testing each day for line progression 🤞🏻 congratulations!

Lines are looking great!!

Tryingwithpcos · 13/09/2024 10:40

Has anyone had 2 definite positives with OPKs? I had one CD13 and again one today CD18. 13 was v early for me but I had a pain which I usually get with ovulation so I thought that may be it but now v confused. The PCOS makes these less reliable but it’s b frustrating and wonder am I 5DPO or starting the TTW again.

Hey! Lurker here

do you think this is a positive or an indent?
I stupidly didn’t keep first wee , so did a digital test at lunch time after all my morning drinks and it says Not Pregnant.
it’s still early, 7 or 8 DPO, but will do the digital again tomorrow morning.

I just want to know!!! 😩

Can’t tell because of the reflection on the plastic. Can you post another photo?

MrsKurz · 13/09/2024 13:44

Ok update from yesterday: I’m now 9DPO. Temp is still high, after that first initial wipe of spotting it’s been so so light, like the tiniest bit only when I wipe and pink now. My cycles have been 26-28 days the last few months, and today is day 27, but it’s also my first cycle off of my IUD so I’m expecting it will be different. Negative test this morning. Not sure what to think, overall I’m feeling pretty stressed and anxious, and not great :(

if it’s AF starting wouldn’t my temp have dropped?
