Line eyes or vvvvfl

Okay so I use to be in this group but my pregnancy ended in a miscarriage at 8 weeks in June. This is my first cycle since and I thought I saw a vvvfl on test strip I took earlier (8dpo) So I went and bought another test and another vvvfl but it was blue dye so I don’t know if I trust it. I’ve heard ppl get false po...

When I had my son I tested negative later on and didn’t get a positive until about 6/7 weeks pregnant. Wondering if anyone has tested positive past 19dpo when testing negative...

Shadow or line?

Can anyone see the faint line? Been having so many different results with different tests I don’t know what to believe anymore. Have bloods being done at my doctors on Monday so hopefully will have a definitive answer

I’ve had a faint positive on boots own early detection test and also cheap test but done a clear blue digital and said not pregnant? Could it have been too early. Due on in 3 days.

Not showing HCG levels

So I went to do my pre check where the doc essentially just confirms your prego like you can’t figure that out yourself lol🤦‍♀️. But I expected to see what my hcg levels were from the blood work they did and MyChart doesn’t show any hcg levels and all the results are definitely back. Anyone else have this or is…

According to date of my last period starting I should be only 2 weeks and 2 days pregnant (I do have short cycles, 21-24 days), however I have taken 3 clear blue how many weeks tests yesterday and today and they all say 2-3 weeks pregnant, which means it’s saying I’m 4-5 weeks pregnant in real terms?!

Last date I had sex was 7th July. Tested on first day of missed period and was negative so assumed not successful this month. Now 5 days late and testing again.

Still getting fainter lines at 16dpo

I’ve been testing positive since 9dpo. Bloodwork was 9hcg at 10dpo and 22 and 13dpo. My home tests are still fairly faint (or not really faint, just not super crazy dark like I’ve seen others have). This is my first pregnancy and I’m worried that the tests aren’t dye stealers. Anyone else have this? I have read that...
