    I think I did a stupid thing. I took a FRER yesterday with SMU and it was much darker than my previous tests. After super hydrating myself today, I came home after work today and took another and it was much lighter than yesterday's. I have my 2nd beta draw tomorrow, but now I'm freaking out. Is it probably just the non-concentrated urine? Just for reference, my beta was 209 at 16dpo. Anyone else freak out over something like this?

  • Yup, had the same freak out last week and it was definitely from diluted urine. Took one the next day and it was darker. You're good!!

  • Thanks @thatlauragirl I really needed that reassurance!! 
  • I wake up every morning and pee in a cup to dip in a Wondfo.  I got my BFP Saturday and I've taken 5 wondfos and Monday I took a Clear Blue (Not the Digital).  I'm saving the Digi (not sure what for but I am saving it lol)

    Anyone still getting 2-3 weeks on the weeks estimator at 7 weeks?? I know they're not 100% accurate and there's a lot of variables, but I'm starting to freak out a bit. I messaged my doctors office, but am sure they're just going to think I'm crazy. I don't have an appointment until 11 weeks (another month!)

    edit: didn't finish my message 
  • @Gibbs7911 Those things are notoriously inaccurate. If you're worried, I'd ask your doctors to check your betas to see if their doubling. Hopefully, your dr will offer that to you to ease your mind.

  • I POAS every day for a week when I got my first positive. Now, I have been POAS every few days, but am down to my last one. I have my first appointment Friday, so I will probably use it between now and then. It just feels good to see that dark test line. 

    Also, @thatlauragirl -Hello and welcome to the group! Glad to see you have some clear positives; however, the appropriate place to post photos of HPTs is here. While I personally am not bothered by photos of used HPTs, it's against TB guidelines to post them outside of the previous thread mentioned. Just wanted you to be aware. 
    Sorry, it was an attempt at humor and I had no idea. Deleting.
    I get why they did it, but it may be the most ridiculous rule ever when it's blanket applied like that. 
    Yea I don't necessarily agree with there being no exceptions to that rule. If it's not used to ask "OMG am I pregnant?!" or to wave it in anyone's face who is TTC, then I don't find it offensive. But, I wanted her to know so that she wasn't giving anyone the opportunity to report her. Given the way the post was done I would hope that no one would, but we do get trolls and random BSC people from time to time. 
    Totally get it :)

  • Thanks @chloe97 I'm hoping to hear back from them tomorrow!
  • When does the desire to stop peeing on all of the sticks stop?!?!

  • You are not alone! I found out last week- was not expecting a positive as it was our first month trying and I thought it would still be too early to test that day. I was sooo wrong haha! I took a couple last week to check and I'm going to test again this week to check haha.I have a bunch of tests and a couple of different brands- I wasn't expecting a positive this time so I was stocked up for future months! One of the brands is the one that shows how many weeks pregnant you are, so it will be nice to see it go up while I'm going crazy waiting forever for my appointment:) 
  • If you've only taken 3 I think you're doing pretty good! This pregnancy I'm kind of shut off, after all our losses, one is enough... but previously I've taken one every other day to watch that test line get darker and darker....
