@babylavender2020 The placement of the line seems off, but I used a FRER and my second line was in the same spot as your test. I have also tested positive with other brands. I'm hoping that you were able to confirm with a retest.
@ttcbabyodo oh it’s there! Looks just like my 10dpo with this baby!!!! I’m so stinking excited for you! ❤️❤️❤️
THANK YOU! MH had me feeling like I was a nusto crazy lady because the test line isn't as dark as the control yet, and I told him that if it was negative then there would be nothing on the left - not even a faint line. I think his TTCAL brain is affecting him trusting a faint line, which I don't blame him, especially since AF isn't due until Monday or Tuesday. I probably won't be able to turn a digital HPT until then anyway, so I'm cautiously optimistic while waiting it out in case it's a CP. Until then, here's today's 11DPO AM test with FMU:
@ttcbabyodo yes girl yes!! I shall give you the Jurassic Park treatment 😆

@ttcbabyodo That doesn’t look too different from my 11 dpo and I turned a First Response digital later that day and a Clear Blue digital at 14 dpo. Keep testing. That looks promising.
@ttcbabyodo no you’re totally fine! If I remember right, mine took a few days to get dramatically darker. Don’t obsess though. I had to stop myself. I was convinced after our MC that this Wouldn’t end well, and now I’m almost 31 weeks along. Take a few more, call your doctor, and take a deep breath! Congratulations!
@ttcbabyodo congrats! I'm thrilled to see a BFP for you! Having said that, I think its in poor taste that you're continuing to post in TTGP, and even more so that you linked this thread in TWW. I understand that you're cautious about a CP, and I sincerely hope that this is your THB, but the test you posted yesterday is clearly positive.
^^^WSS We get it, we really do. ❤️Unfortunately many of us have been there with CPs / losses, too. But that is not even a squinter. @ttcbabyodo Congratulations!!!! Go intro in October, woman!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for your advice, ladies. I really appreciate it. I was considering not posting in TWW today, and your posts confirm that I shouldn't have (not being snarky at all, I swear). I think I'll go back and edit my post in the dailies. Thanks again!
Hi friends! Ultimate "I have no chill" post. I did a medicated cycle with Novarel trigger on CD14. I am 13dpo (13 days after the trigger) and I should have waited another day, but seriously couldn't help myself (and I did 100% believe I would have a negative test) - what I got was very clearly not negative. I guess, my first concern is that I should just wait until tomorrow to test again because it may be a false positive? But, then again I don't know how the test would go from that dark to nothing in 24-hours. I'm really fearful that this is a CP and I don't want to alert DH until I know for sure I'm actually PG and not just acting like a neurotic mess (per usual). Not sure if this post is appropriate for this board, if it's not - let me know and I'll remove.
@laurenmicheley was your trigger 5000 or 10000 units of hcg? If 5000, I think at 13 dpt that is a true BFP. if 10k, I'd say it probably still is a true BFP at this point but you'd want to see rising betas for sure. I had a clear BFP 10 dtp with my IUI but it was bc I had a 5k trigger that I tested out to negative before getting a positive again.
@chichiphin It was 10000 units. I'm going in for blood tomorrow - my RE's nurse said that this is a positive, that at this point my body is making the HCG since it's been 2 weeks (almost) since triggering. Looks like it's happening - now, FX it sticks this time.
@laurenmicheley I got my positive 12 days post trigger (10,000) but it was very faint and I didn’t know if it was real or the trigger. The next morning the line was darker and your line looks pretty dark! FX for you!
I was in here last month and thought maybe I got a positive but af showed up 😔. I'm back this month and confused again lol. I know blue dyes have a terrible reputation but they didn't have any frer at my Walmart 🙄. I bought their blue eye not really expecting a positive and this showed up.within the 3 minutes. I also have lots of pregmate tests and saw the faintest of lines. Both tested with the same sample. Thoughts and input? Anyone use either test with good outcome? Thank you ladies!
@babylavender2020 At least this month the line placement looks right! They both look very light, but I see lines on both. Do you know how many DPO you are? I think your best bet is to wait a full 24-hours and retest with FMU. I've never had a problem with that Walmart brand. FX for you.
Looks positive to me! My first line was very faint (fainter than yours) and got darker over the next 5 days. It was so faint I didn't trust it enough to tell DH and threw it away. Tested the next day and it was still faint but definitely there. I agree with the rec to wait 24 hours and test again with fmu.

In my experience, 1 blurred line and another very clear in red. I took another one and gave me another positive result but both lines are clear. If you are seeing 2 lines whether the other is a pale pink and the other is red, go and get another pregnancy test. If you are already 8 weeks delayed, you better see a doctor and you will be able to confirm by ultrasound.
Those are positive. Yay!!! It helped me to Google pictures of positive tests. I didn't get a test with the test line as dark as the control until almost 6weeks pregnant.

9/5/15 Second after severe bleeding for 18 weeks due to subchorionic hematoma
I took 2 of the walgreens brand analog tests. The first one I took 6 days before my missed period because my partner was impatient and it was negative. Fast forward to 7 days after my missed period and it was definitely positive with the second test results.
This was so mee. I woke up took 3 dollar store test, all showed to very visible pink lines, I later brought another generic Walmart test a week later before my scheduled doctors appointment to make sure I was still pregnant..
my very first child child and I was scared and wanted to make sure my baby was still there
I was supposed to start clomid on cd5-9 but AF never came. I took a test 2 days ago with FMU and never looked at it again (working 10hr shifts and has to be up early, I totally forgot to check it), I came home and there were two lines on the test. (I know your not supposed to read them past the time limit but the line was there and wasn’t a squinter) I had two more dollar store cheapies so I decided to take one right then and there. The line came up blazing positive and within three minutes.. I couldn’t believe it. I took another test early in the morning around 3:45am because I had to go and didn’t want to screw it up by going then and then going a few hours later. The line was faint but visible. I didn’t have to squint to see it or hold it up to the light. I was confused as to why the one I previously took was darker then this one but chalked it up to not holding my urine as long as I would have if I was at work. The next morning I decided to do another and it was a BFN. I did a digital today and BFN. Frers are also BFN.. I did call my doctor right away when I found out and they don’t do blood tests, she said if I wanted one to be extra sure I could but advised it’s not a wise time to get one with the virus and I couldn’t agree more.. has this happened to anyone else and have you gone on to have a successful pregnancy? I’m starting to think it was a chemical but maybe I am testing to early. But if that’s the case why was it positive? i have attached pictures of the three I took. The top is the one that I took at 5am and it sat all day, the middle is the one that sparked me to take another test and the bottom is the one I took at 3:45am the next day...
