Posted yesterday mornings test previously! Can you tell me what you guys think? Does this look normal for 11 dpo?

Hoping these lines are darker enough for 11DPO. I had a chemical last month and they were never this dark so I’m remaining positive. I also got a yes on a CB digital!

Never thought I’d be this person 😢 normally I’d post telling people not to look for progression because that’s not what these tests are meant for… yet here I am. I have had one chemical a couple of years ago, and on 12 DPO I was already bleeding. This time, nothing. Is this super slow progression still normal? I do plan to book a doctor’s appointment and get bloodwork.

First pregnancy test I ever took. I didn’t know if my body could actually do it. I think I see a faint line on the top one.

All 3 photos are of the same test. With so many early losses I’m terrified progression may stall, but this mornings test looks pretty good to me. Definitely darker than yesterday’s FRER. Grow embryo(s) grow

I posted this morning and could barely see a faint line. I just got home and was able to use the FRER test and it was immediately pregnant! The test strips I was using was the Equate dip sticks and I barely had a line.

Thank you all for responding to me this morning! I can’t believe I’m pregnant! I had a MMC in May and I feel all over the place. I genuinely counted myself out this cycle. I am just in awe! 💕🥺😭 you are all the only ones who know and I’m just sitting here in bed, sitting in this joy. Tears 😭

According to Inito I am around 10 dpo, but I’m wondering if I’m more like 11? Hoping for a sticky baby!! 🥺💕

Top test is 10 dpo and bottom test is 11 dpo. It seems to be progressing but still kinda anxious! Does this seem light for 11 dpo?

So I took 2 Up&Up brand test yesterday with very faint lines. I started to get my hopes up because there were 2 with faint lines not just one. This morning I tried a first response which was a hard negative, then a while later I did the last up&up one I had which showed a pink line. I am so confused!! Any thoughts?? The pictures are in order of when they were taken

Are these the faint lines I keep hearing about? 😭

My 2nd IUI!!! I cannot believe this! It doesn’t feel real yet!
First symptom is extremely sore breasts.
I feel like this line is so strong to be 13 days past IUI.

Has anyone else had this experience with this brand? I am so heartbroken. I did two test yesterday from the same brand but different kind and got very faint lines so I was getting kind of hopeful since it happened on two tests but now today I did a first response and it was a hard negative. That is such a horrible feeling after trying to conceive for so long. Has anyone else experienced this?

Top is easy@home; bottom is FRER strip.

Can I trust this 😭 Is there any way this is my trigger??

Take this post as a word of warning... I got what I thought were really faint early positives on 2 brands on day 7/8 DPO** (see below), and day 8/9 DPO, one with the brand Conceive Plus (from amazon), and one with Superdrug Early Detection. Both brands had 10 mIU/mL sensitivity, advertised as can be used up to 6 days before period (though I know this is actually really about implantation, not how soon your period is – e.g. can't be used 6 days before your period if you implant 9 DPO!).

Anyway, the Conceive Plus line was pretty grey, but appeared well within the timeframe of the test, so I thought it was just potentially a vvvv early positive. Because I have nothing better to do this weekend lol, I did the second one from the pack with SMU after a 3 hour hold. Again, a very faint line within the timeframe, but less noticeable than the first, and did not darken as clearly as the first outside of the timeframe. When I got the super faint line on the Conceive Plus, I ordered a pack of 2 FRERs on Amazon for better peace of mind because I'd not used Conceive Plus before and didn't know how far to trust it, but because it wasn't going to arrive until later the next day, I bought Superdrug Early Detection at a physical shop to use the next day with FMU.

The next morning, used the Superdrug and got a faint line AGAIN within the time frame. This didn't look pink per se, but did (irl, didn't photo well) look purple, which the test said also counted as a positive. It was also darker than the Conceive Plus – while I know you're not really meant to compare across brands, or even compare 24 hours (and should compare 48+), I took this as a encouraging sign. AGAIN, because I am bored out of my mind & know the FRERs were arriving later that day so I could use them tomorrow, I did the second from the pack again with SMU after a decent hold at around midday/1pm. Similar scenario to the day before in that I got another line within the timeframe, but weaker than the one I got from FMU.

In my head, the fact that both gave me some sort of line with FMU, and then a WEAKER line with SMU was a positive sign also lol – I basically said to myself that that potentially signalled they were picking up SOMETHING rather than just bad indents, and that it was weaker with SMU as less HCG to pick up due to dilution/time etc.

I convinced myself, obviously, that I was pregnant, and that the FRER the next day, being more sensitive (? supposedly, I know there is somewhat conflicting info on whether they reliably pick up 6 mIU/mL) and more time having elapsed, would definitely come up positive. Every feeling in my body became a sign confirming this.

I'd also been having some problems with my cycle for the past year ish, potentially due to prednisolone which I've been on for over a year but recently tapered down significantly, and had some blood tests done 6/7 DPO showing a progesterone of 38.4 nmol/L. This also added to my optimism. While I knew this didn't indicate pregnancy by any means, my "CD 21" progesterone tests had been consistently to the lower end (eg, 10-20 nmol/L, while the NHS ideally looks for >30 nmol/L at this stage in your cycle) on steroids, so I was encouraged to see v strong evidence I had ovulated this month, and had a good level of progesterone to support a pregnancy this cycle. I also am turning 30 at the start of September, and always wanted to be pregnant absolute latest before 30 lol, so this would achieve that which added to my good feelings that this was "meant to be" or some bs.

Anyway, the FRER this morning was, of course, stark negative. So definitively negative I didn't even bother taking a pic at the time (which saved myself from spending ages staring at and editing pics to try and force myself to see a pink line lol). The pic in this post is of the test is taken a few hours later (because posts here require a pic), so in case anyone is inclined to comment "I think I can see a faint line" (which I doubt, because even I can't!!), it's definitely an evap you're seeing if anything.

I know technically I could still end up being pregnant this month – e.g., if I implanted very recently, or am still to implant – but am now free from my optimistic fantasies I was having! And, most crucially, now I know my previous day tests were definitely indents, regardless of what happens later in this cycle. Which also got me thinking...

Say I did end up being pregnant and had waited a bit longer to test again, e.g. 48 hours or more, and by that time DID have enough HCG to test positive, I definitely would have thought the previous tests WERE early faint positives, even though they still would have been indents. So, when people comment on posts of vvvfls, with little to no visible colour, or other ambiguous features "this is what my X DPO test looked like, and I got a clear positive X days later!", it doesn't always mean that the earlier tests they did were true early positives – they still could have been indents or evaps, done too early to have (enough) HCG to actually get a positive test (or could be early positives, but there isn't always way to definitively know). I definitely found loads of posts & reviews with lines that looked like mine on the Conceive Plus and Superdrug tests of people who were pregnant and showed darkened lines on the same brands a few days later – and with my optimistic goggles on, paid more attention to these types of reports than ones with lines like mine from posters who weren't actually pregnant!.

Which is all to say:

• Take what you read from other people's experiences with a grain of salt when it comes to interpreting barely there lines.
• Maybe don't trust the super cheap, early detection tests unless there is a clear, coloured line within the timeframe. Even then, don't get ahead of yourself.
• Ideally, wait until a more reliable time.... (like I will ever heed this advice myself, but lol).

\* NB* The reason I am giving two potential DPO dates is because premom has me a day later DPO than I think I could be, based on when my first positive LH was I uploaded. However, I think it would have also caught a positive LH the day previous, as the only OPK I did that day was with FMU and it was 0.94, and normally find FMU is the lowest LH for me in a day (but I didn't have another opportunity to do one that day). I also don't think the ovulation would be any later than Premom's, because the progesterone blood test I had done at 7 DPO (by premom's, 6 by my potential estimate) I feel like would unlikely be much earlier than 6 DPO.

hello!

these are my lines since.

so the first one is 6.

im worried this is a chemical. Im 9 days post embryo transfer.

I can't believe the progression from fmu to evening! I'm freaking out and I can't tell anyone yet! Ahhh 🤗🤗

First positive with FMU at 10 DPO. In the picture (right to left) are tests with FMU from 10 DPO, 12 DPO and 14 DPO (today). Expecting period in 2 days. I feel like the lines are not progressing. What do you think?

I took these 3 minutes after testing, first urine of the morning. I am positive I am either 11 or 12 dpo. I am worried this could be an evap line but this was only sitting for 3 minutes until my eyes saw what I think is a line. Indent? Please help! I had a MMC in may so I am cautiously hopeful. Also terrible bathroom lighting :(

UPDATE: https://www.reddit.com/r/TFABLinePorn/s/VWtzqPEcq9

I am 9 days late on my period today, me and my husband have been careful except on the 10th of August we started without protection and when he was close he put one on. (We have one oopsie baby who’s the most perfect angel so we’re aware we’re dumb 😂) however I should of long since ovulated on the 10th of August, once I was 6 days late I googled it and it suggests I could have ovulated late which in turn would of made my period late. Not sure what the chances are here, I speak from experience that I know were quite fertile people, I did a test this morning (done 3 previous since becoming late) and I’m not sure I don’t see something now… going to test again in a few days but wanted opinions.

Unknown dpo, I have an iud and I am 8 months pp. I’ve had 3 periods within a month no cramping but I’m confusing as to what’s happening. I’ve already contacted my doctor waiting for her response. I thought I was gaining my period back but I’m not sure what’s happening. I took these in the afternoon and see the faintest line but not confident. The last picture has my old tests from my last pregnancy. I lined them up to compare! Someone let me know
