Feint line? About to have my last FET!

I’ve had a feint positive this afternoon at 11dpo; it showed up straight away and had a little colour (I think!) however, I was so shocked I took another test from the same urine, which shows barely anything / nothing at all.

I’ve been doing this for 8 years, and just bought £1400 of meds for my final embryo transfer! So it would be incredible if this was actually it.

this cycle, I had a temp drop below cover line 8dpo, mild twinges in and off, tender breasts, and now Brian and pink spotting this afternoon. My luteal phase is usually around 14 days.

these symptoms, other than the temp dip, are pretty common for my unsuccessful cycles too.

anyone had experience of a positive and negative in the same batch/ same wee, and it turned out positive?

(chatgtp tells me that these tests can very in dye and sensitivities at such an early stage and thinks pregnant! buuut, I’ve been here too many times before to take it as true). Please help!

That absolutely looks positive to me! I agree can’t see anything on the second test which is disheartening and confusing but the other one looks absolutely positive. Those tests are always faint even when way passed missed period. They only get dark about 20dpo in my experience!
have you tried another brand?

Thank you for reply! Yes frer was negative; I’ve had it over a year though, not sure if that’s makes a difference! These tests with the dark lid - didn’t show up as well as the cheapies on previous pregnancies (which became losses) so hoping the FRER isn’t right 😬

Good luck @MotherOfShihTzus i see something there

Thank @MrBigsCat - not looking good today. On to my final chance! I somehow thought it might actually be possible to conceive naturally as I had laparoscopic surgery to rid my of endo / adenomyosis, but I’ve not been so lucky! How are things going for you?

@MotherOfShihTzus im still trying naturally. Coming up for the 2 year mark.
sorry you are going through this. How long have you been trying now?

MotherOfShihTzus · 28/04/2025 15:25

@MrBigsCatthats tough - know exactly how you feel. Been 2 1/2 years on number 2 now, I don’t know if this one counts as an early loss - I certainly felt pregnant. My last embryo transfer will follow a few months of injections to shut down all hormones / put me in menopause, to calm inflammation, so I’ve that to look forward to now 😆 are you thinking of any alternative next steps or taking things as they come? I decided that this is my last year trying to- can’t take the heartache or even the hope any more x
