Early test after FET

[mummyofnone]

Hi guys- I’m back. It’s so funny, but I feel like you have all become my support and friends - thank you everyone who has messaged and supported me through this journey so far.
we had an FET on weds (4BB day 5 euploid)
they told me to do the test next Monday 23rd. I have PTSD from 4 years of looking at negative tests and told them I just couldnt look out of fear (I know it sounds so weird but I’m so used to seeing a negative, that I want to hold on to some hope for a bit longer)
anyway, to help me prepare myself I bought some cheap early tests from Amazon and starting testing, getting used to seeing the negative so I won’t feel as upset and I’m ready to not feel distraught (I just can’t see it working) anyway, I did it this afternoon (so not even first thing) and I feel like I can see a faint line. I wanted to share with you all and see if I’m going crazy, if it’s far far too soon to tell or if it could be wrong. I can’t tell anyone else, so wanted to ask you x

Oooh looks very hopeful!! 🤞🤞 when you’ve used these tests before have the negatives been stark white? I know some of these cheap tests can throw off indents/false positives!

Honestly I think there’s a line there. I don’t want to get hopes up so early but I’m attaching my old tests which started at 4dp5dt to 9dp5dt and I think the top one is similar to your 4dp5dt.

good luck!

I have used strip ones in the past but not these particular ones. After reading your message, I checked Amazon reviews again and despite it being 4.1, if you go back a page or so, lots of women said they got false positives. Feel deflated now. I popped one in a glass of water and it was negative with a bright white line, so maybe my batch is ok? but it seems like I was too keen and these ones can’t be trusted. I should have stuck with the ones I used before or just waited like the hospital told me to 😔 thank you for your question, it helped prepare me - the countdown begins xx

Awww this is lovely!! I’m so so pleased for you - congratulations xxxx
I took a look at the Amazon reviews again and a lot of women said they got false positives, so I’m not feeling so hopeful and feel silly I tested so early on x

Have you tested again today or are you holding off? 😊 it’s so hard not to test early!! Ooh yes interesting it was bright white when dipped in water, fingers crossed!

I decided not to test again and then I woke up and Iv already done two more (and one control one in water) 😂😂 the water one is still bright white with the control line and nothing else, and the two I have done today have lines… I really want to be hopeful but it’s been a tough journey so I just hope our luck has changed xx these are the two from today. Its so so hard not to test and to be patient x

Ooh exciting they look good, why don’t you treat yourself to a CB digital? 🫣xx

Iv ordered a first response test but because they are more official im a bit nervous itl be negative and burst my bubble. Im starting to like having the hope that it might be ok and it’s helping me with the fear of the official test day. I don’t like clear blue after i had a disappointing moment with the evaporation line so boycotted the brand, do you think they are any good? X

Ooh good idea, I like first response too! I totally understand that, it’s such an internal struggle isn’t it. I also don’t trust the clear blue dye ones either to be fair, I just like the digital ones and seeing the word ‘pregnant’. But first response is a good idea!

I think they are positive congratulations. I had a day 3 double transfer Wednesday and my test date is also the 23 June so if you had a day 5 transfer you definitely could be getting positives from now as that would make you 10dpo?

@mummyofnone was your FET last Wednesday the 11th? So was mine, and I decided to test this weekend since I read that you could start seeing a line from 6dp5dt.

My test looks almost exactly like yours. In fact, yours might even be a bit darker. I am feeling very positive for us both. The big question I guess is just when did the line appear? Before or after the 3 minute mark. If it's before 3 minutes, I think it's highly unlikely to be an evap. I could see mine at around 1 minute.

I know it's still early days, but I think you can allow yourself to have a little hope. This morning my husband said, maybe there a bun baking in the oven. I responded that we are still a long way from a bun, but at least it seems like the oven is finally able to switch on, which is a lot more than I've been able to say the last 2 years.

Are you going to keep testing every day to see whether the line progress? I think I am in order to keep myself sane, just have to go out and get more tests.

I really think this might be your month! Holding thumbs for you

Thank you so much for the positive thoughts, it’s been four years of torture and countless cycles that didn’t work out -so can’t get excited. The test looked darker today.
oooohh good luck to you too! I really hope it goes well (I’m sure it will) and you will have a beautiful little baby in your arms soon xx

Awww we are transfer twins! There is another lady on this thread who had a transfer on the same day, so looks like we are triplets ❤️❤️ The line came up after about a minute (although I have stared at it for so long it felt more like an hour) Iv actually made my husband do a test too to make sure it’s not faulty batch. I tested again today (I always do two at a time) and the line is getting a bit darker (I think but have attached a pic) but I have ordered first response too (Amazon are selling the 6 day early ones in a two pack for £9) yours definitely looks positive, I can see the beautiful line xx
Dont worry, we will keep eachother sane - it’s so hard but the support in this group is just amazing xx

@mummyofnone thank you!

Wow the line on your latest test is much darker! I think congratulations are in order! No😄🌻Keeping my fingers crossed that the line keeps getting darker in days to come

i really really hope so

Are you going to do another test today/tomorrow? I can’t tell the hospital or they will really tell me off x
