3 years TTC no luck, just been referred for fertility… could this be?!

I’m not holding ANY hope. I’m somewhere between 9&11 dpo as I didn’t test ovulation last month. This is 3 minutes and it’s one of those I can see at certain angles. Reality check me if you think I’ve just lost the plot. I’m 3 years of trying, husbands sperm is fine. I have 2 children from a previous relationship who are 9 and 11. Not so much as a hint of a line previously.

I see it ❤️ congratulations

@paulliee it just can’t be. There’s no way… my god. If it was it would be the positive “it could still happen” story. Won’t be celebrating until it’s a total big fat red line. I’m 99% sure it will be a horrible indent or something. But I’m keeping everything crossed. Thank you! X

Ye I see it too!

hmm this morning is exactly the same. I’m not so sure. I think it’s an Evap. 😔 yesterday’s is the top dry one and today’s is the bottom.

I’m not sure, I think I see something and you are still early.
I’m keeping everything crossed for you. Also into 3rd year ttc here

Oliveboots · 03/11/2026 07:25

@Pinkponyclub26 thank you for your kind message. I will keep everything crossed for you too. It’s hard isn’t it? How old are you if you don’t mind me asking? X

Pinkponyclub26 · 03/11/2026 07:34

Also have children from a previous relationship, dh has none
all tests normal

Oliveboots · 03/11/2026 07:49

@Pinkponyclub26 im 35. Have either of you been tested? My husband had sperm checked twice. I’m yet to have anything. I’d like my tubes tested and flushed if needed ideally. Just long for the two lines 😔 feeling quite queasy this morning and have had a headache for 3 days x

@Pinkponyclub26 oh sorry just seen all tests normal. How frustrating x

Something catching my eye on these tests 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Oliveboots · 04/11/2026 09:56

@Pinkponyclub26 sadly all Evaps. Period due tomorrow, but nothings changed or gotten darker on the strips since. I wouldn’t recommend one step at all, this morning I did two tests with the same wee and one had the worst dye bleed ever (which prompted the second test which was negative). Thank you for your kind messages. I’ll attach the dye bleed photo purely so no one else get their hopes up with these awful tests x

OP, it would be worth getting another brand of tests. These are not the best quality, but my due date group with my last son was full of people who used these tests with accurate positives.

Oliveboots · Today 08:25

@KittyFantastica period is 2 days late but still BFN so I’m quite certain I’m out. I will order another brand though, thank you. What do you recommend that isn’t FRER? thank you

I just use the clear&simple tests from B&M £1 for 2 tests and never had an issue with them
