Line eyes?

I’m 5 days late however I have PCOS and very irregular cycles so not sure how DPO I actually am. If I were to guess I’m maybe 8-9 DPO? What do we think?

Should I be worried about the faint lines?

I just tested 11/11 so these are a day or so old. I’ve seen people talking about lines fading & faint lines. I’m very new to this I’m not sure what that means. Should I use another test?

Gestational diabetes

Did anyone else have gestational diabetes? Have you had your follow on blood tests after birth? If so what happened? I’ve got a lot of anxiety due to trauma with needles so any reassurance is highly appreciated

Line progression

I’m dpo11 today and this is my line progression, does this look normal, should it be progressing or have progressed more at this stage? It’s our first so it’s a bit nerve wrecking

Is size 6 also 3-6??

I cannot for the life of me find a size chart that converts 3, 6, 9 etc into 0-3, 3-6, 6-9. Are these conversions correct? Carters and other stores use the former.
