I'm currently 8dpo (or thereabouts) and I caved and took a cheap test! Mostly because I wanted to stop thinking about it and I thought seeing a negative would bring me back to earth. But I'm wondering if I can see a very very faint line. Pics attached. Please let me know your thoughts. I've been staring at it so long I am wondering if I'm just seeing things now! Thank you ❤️

I can definitely see it. Did it appear in the time?

UnravellingTheWorld · 08/03/2024 20:34

I see it! Wait a week and do another test - sending baby dust your way!

IWillBeWaxingAnOwl · 08/03/2024 20:36

Assuming you took the picture of the test within the time limit, I see it. I would advise you take a FRER with first morning urine tomorrow!

Pinkiepromise789 · 08/03/2024 20:38

I see it! Mine were like this for the first few days.. husband couldn't see it. Sending you baby dust xx

Starrysky812 · 08/03/2024 20:38

@Avopopcorn yes it was a 5 minute waiting time and I set my alarm to look exactly!
@UnravellingTheWorld thank you for the baby dust!

Will try to wait but might end up doing a frer before that! Too excited and don't want to get my hopes up all week if it's negative!

Thank you 😊

@IWillBeWaxingAnOwl I will do that!

@Pinkiepromise789 thank you!

Fingers crossed 🤞

So I did a Clear Blue early result with fmu and I have another vfl! It's not so clear in the photo but was definitely there (I think!). I think I'm going to get one of those "Pregnant / Not Pregnant" digital ones for clarity. Do you think I could do that later today after not drinking much water and a 4 hour hold? Or best to wait till tomorrow morning again? My period isn't due till Thursday 🤔

Hiya, I'm a day ahead of you. Yesterday I was 9DPO (according to my app, however I may have been 10DPO).

Yesterday with second urine I got a very faint line on easy@home and then a faint line on a FRER. I then held my pee and waited for partner to come home to do the CB early digital. It says it can detect pregnancy up to 6 days early and mine is due on Wednesday so was on the line. It said pregnant ☺️ if you are sure of your ovulation then you might get the same result. But a pack of 2 so you can try again in the next day or 2. They are quite pricey though!

Starrysky812 · 09/03/2024 09:12

@CadoAvo congratulations! ❤️ that's lovely news for you. I'm holding now and DH is going out to get a CB early digital (you're right they're very pricy!) so will test around lunchtime after 4 hour hold. Fingers crossed 🤞

@Starrysky812 good luck!! Yes I bought some in Superdrug last weekend (thought I was being too optimistic to buy them this month but now I'm glad I did). £18 for a pack of 2 😳 you can buy a pack of 1 for slightly cheaper though.
Let us know how you get on!

Rosesanddaisies1 · 09/03/2024 09:32

Honestly wait a few days, 8/9 dpo is incredibly unlikely. Why does it matter to stress now, and waste money, you’ll know eventually. I only got BFPs the day my period was due

DownWhichOfLate · 09/03/2024 10:22

I’ve reported your photo as it shows your naked reflection!

I’ve reported your photo as it shows your naked reflection!

I thought this was a joke ! Let's hope
It gets taken down asap.

TheShellBeach · 09/03/2024 10:26

I think you were sitting on the loo, naked, when you took the photo.

TheShellBeach · 09/03/2024 10:27

BTW the digital aren't more likely to give a reliable result.
They still rely on you having a certain amount of hCG in your urine.

Starrysky812 · 09/03/2024 11:05

@TheShellBeach I was standing in front of the mirror about to get into the shower! 😂🤦‍♀️ I didn't know how to delete it so had to wait for MNHQ to intervene 😂 lesson learned for checking photos before I post!

OP posts:
Starrysky812 · 09/03/2024 11:07

@DownWhichOfLate thank you! I reported it twice too and sent two emailed to MNHQ and they've helped at last! 😅

OP posts:
DownWhichOfLate · 09/03/2024 11:08

Haha! Yes, definitely check for nudity on future photos. And best of luck for your BFP!

Starrysky812 · 09/03/2024 13:46

Thank you for all the comments and apologies again for that photo! 😳
I've done another cheapie again and still have a vfl. New pic attached. I'm going to hold off doing clear blue early digital till tomorrow morning so I can do with fmu. What are the chances of having vfls on 3 separate tests and not BFP? I know I'm seeming like a woman obsessed and should just wait a few days but I'm too excited! ❤️

Opinions please! BFP or wishful thinking...

TheShellBeach · 09/03/2024 13:48

That's a clear BFP. It isn't faint!

TheShellBeach · 09/03/2024 13:50

Have you been trying for long?

toomanyleggings · 09/03/2024 13:53

That’ll end up positive imo. I’m a poas addict lol

CadoAvo · 09/03/2024 13:55

Definitely looking positive!!

When I had mine yesterday on the cheap strips I luckily had FRERs in the cupboard. When that gave a faint positive too I just knew it was a BFP since it was 2 different brands.

Good luck tomorrow for the digital! 🤞🏼
