Guys im so frustrated. I am 19DPO and should be on CD5 but no AF!!!!!
All tests BFN and at this point any viable pregnancy would be getting a positive test. Never happened before and I am at my wits end!

Oh I'm so sorry this is happening. Has anything different happened this cycle? Illness or maybe you ovulated later than you thought? I really hope one or the other comes soon so you know where you stand x

I had this happen to me once - it's because I didn't lie it flat - I held it in my hands and hadn't realised I'd tipped it. Not sure of other reasons it can get an error - maybe if it's flooded?? So annoying and such a waste of money, I feel for you!

@Alex2022

Same here! I did the test and we had an elderly guest that was banging the loo door down so shoved it into my jeans pocket and then made small talk with them. By the time I escaped this sign came up!

@DaringlyDizzy @MummyV2021 Agh, I did move it so perhaps that's what did it!! Won't be doing that again!!

Typical, they're not sensitive enough to use before AF due, but one little movement and they're all of a sudden extremely sensitive!

Are you going to try another one? I understand they're stupid expensive 😩 x

@woodpeckersounds that really made me laugh!!! Sensitive little suckers! Although I've found they can be more sensitive than you think - don't they detect 10mlu?? Which is the same as internet cheapies to be fair! I braved it and took one today at 12dpo (although granted I'm getting a clear line on FRER already) and it was positive (1-2 weeks). Always something more reassuring seeing it in writing isn't it?!

@Alex2022 do you have anymore? Do you dare take another one?! xx

Sensitive when they want to be 🤣
Oh really? Well that makes my comment invalid then as I thought they were bad for giving "Not Pregnant" before AF 🙈 I haven't used one of those since I tested for DC1 which is coming up 13 years ago, so I clearly have no idea what I'm talking about!
I've bought a cheapy early response to use today. Just holding on to my wee for as long as I can, and then I'm going for it. I'm 10/11dpo so not holding out much hope but you never know!

I do think they can be very hit and miss and even if there's a hint of a positive on cheap ones they will say not pregnant, so general advice is to wait until AF due date because of this. I always wait for a fairly decent positive on FRER/cheapie before I use the digital - I'd never use it as my first one - be far too expensive haha!

Eek fingers crossed for you, I got my BFP at 10DPO so you never know! But also still time if you do get a BFN. Good luck!!

@MummyV2021 @woodpeckersounds hahaha, that tickled me too!!
I don't have any left, no, I used the other (pack of 2) last month. I think I'll just order and pack of cheapies to have and wait it out!! Xx

@MummyV2021 BFN! But I'm not out until AF arrives so not letting it get to me!

Sorry to hear this but still early days. Fingers crossed for you!

Hi everyone, I’m currently CD5 and thought I’d do an ovulation test just to see. The line seems quite dark? Do you think ovulation could be close? I thought the line seemed quite dark for only CD5 xx

I did attach a photo but I’m not sure if it’s posted x

@woodpeckersounds really sorry to hear that! But definitely still time! Sending baby dust!

@MrsGingerCat Good luck 🤞🏻

Where can I buy FRER from online?? They are my fav brand 😂🙈. But no longer online anywhere decent ??

@becksxx that does look like a good line, does seem early though but it can happen. Keep testing and see if you maybe ovulate twice this month, happened to me once! I was so confused

Cd24 and possibly 7/8 DPO - the urge to do a test is awful! I know it's far too soon though. Hoping to hold out to Sunday (AF due Monday) but I'll probably cave before then

@MummyV2021 ps Congratulations!!! 🥳 ✨

@MummyV2021 @Mummahelp thanks both. Yep still early days so we will see. I'll be over the moon if I do get my BFP this month, but it is only our first month trying again so feel like I need to be realistic! I'm going to try and hold out until at least Sunday now 🤞🏼xx

Hi ladies, just after some advice please. I’m currently 14dpo or 4 weeks 5 days pregnant today (tho I ovulated on CD19 so late ish for me) and I’ve had numerous positive tests yet my docs have rang and said their sample is negative. Currently sat waiting for my blood results to come back but am I just overthinking the worst and it’s just too early to show on theirs maybe? X

How confusing @Lcc5261 ! The GP tests are 25IU/L so not as sensitive as first response etc so it may just be that! When will you hear back from the bloods? X

I’ve taken clear blue ones too and the digital ones so I’ve no idea what to think. They said two days x

Was it one of the 6 days early ones you took? That is really strange, have you taken any tests today? I’ve got my fingers crossed for you x
