Paranoid af

Hi mums. Got a little boy who is turning 3 this month. We have been properly trying for a second since January. Had a chemical pregnancy (I think in Jan). Wasn’t even sure what it was because one evening clear blue showed me as pregnant and the next couple of days, it was negative. Not sure if it was a false positiv...

Am I losing it?

This was within the time frame. AF due today. I feel like I see a shadow of a line is it too quick for an evap? This is FRER.

Pregnant or not

The most faintest line, or am I imagining this? The second test I did too soon after and pee’d too much on the stick and was negative. Hmm thoughts?

Do Clearblue tests give evap lines?

Pic taken after 10 mins because I was in a rush this morning before work, and after 10 mins I only saw a thick sort of blur but not a line so I just assumed negative, but I can now see a line (albeit hours after testing). Do I just disregard due to how long it was left or do these clear blue tests keep a positive ...

Clear Blue Evap Lines

I'm 12DPO and have done one of these tests every morning for the past 3 days, however the results are showing negative until after the recommended 10 minutes and then changing to this. I understand Evap lines but to have it on 3 tests in a row is this normal? And I heard that Evap lines don't have colour…

Tap out

Counting myself out this month. I took a first response this morning and it was negative. I know 9dpo is early but the first response always give me an early result even if it’s faint.

Positive test ?

Few days ago tried the clear blue which had a very faint line the day after I checked. Day after that I done a cheap test came back negative. And this morning I’ve done a clear blue again and it’s come back with a faint line on the cross I don’t know what to think 🤔 I’m a couple days over missed period and don’t…

I don’t wanna do it anymore

I’m sick of it. Everyone’s getting pregnant. I feel like my life is on hold. I’m nearly 35. I just want to quit. I’m blessed I have a son but I desperately want him to have a siblings but it’s breaking me every month negative test after negative test. I’m using opk’s, all the vitamins, SMEP method, trying to stay he...

Periods

11dpo

11dpo, negative tests. So over it now. I had a chemical in may first time of trying for our second and now I feel like maybe that was meant to happen as I’m not meant to be a mum second time round. Sounds silly but it’s so exhausting and BD’ing when I have my peaks feels more like a chore now 🥱 so disappointing.

Help - Has anyone used boots dip tests?

Hi, first time using Boots red dip test and second line (or shadow) appeared within 5 min window. Didn't seem to be much colour, second picture was taken within 10 mins (which is max time to read) which seems to have a slight colour (maybe) Do evap lines often happen with these tests? I brought a red test as heard ...

Low HCG?

I had bloodwork done at 5 weeks, 3 days and my HCG result was 1100. I can’t help but feel this number is low. I got a very faint positive at 9dpo so I was expecting to have a high number. Anyone else experience this? I’ve repeated bloodwork again today but not sure what I should be preparing myself for :(

Plus sign positive, digital negative

Got this yesterday but the digital one is negative. Thoughts?! And why is there another line to the left-are they both just evap lines?

Is this a vap line?

So, basically I don’t think there’s anywhere I can be pregnant. I am on contraception (the implant. 2.5Y into it) and I’ve only had sex once a month ago and it wasn’t “finished”. But since then I kept having dreams I take a pregnancy test and it would be positive. So my paranoia got the better of me and I took 3 tes...

Sainsbury’s test - evap line?

Both these tests have come back with these lines but after a few hours which is why I’m thinking evap. The stronger line one is from yesterday and todays has a very faint line (which you can’t really see from the pic). I’m 12 dpo now so I’m guessing probably not positives as you’d expect to see stronger lines at thi...
