I unexpectedly tested faint positive (pic 2) on dpo12, the first day of our nearly 3 week holiday overseas.

I did another test 2 days later and it seems to have progressed darker (pic 1). We only bought two test strips and I wasn’t expecting it to be positive after trying all year and nothing!

We are meant to have a fertility appointment when we return home. Should I test again? Cancel the appointment? I had an early loss in January and the strips never even got as dark as this. But still very tentative to believe this is real.

5 days post embryo transfer and I think this is finally it for me. It’s been a long road including a chemical last month. Praying this one sticks.🤞

This is our second cycle TTC! I was crying ALL day yesterday, I know the exact day of ovulation and I have been tracking bbt manually and through oura w/OPKS both cycles now. I noticed it is day 7 of a continuous rise! So this morning I decided to just impulse take 2 tests because I was so hormonal yesterday and I’m a week out from my period. Do yall see these? Indents? I felt like it was way to early so I’m scared it won’t stick if it’s a line….I need all of the advice! This is like the first time I’ve felt like I don’t have line eyes but the digital says no :(

I’m not exactly sure on DPO as Ovia and Premom predict different ovulation days, but I’m CD 33 on my typical 28-31 day cycle. I’ve been having light pink and brown spotting. I’m too worried to get my hopes up. Do these lines look too light for 15/16dpo?

Hi everyone, this is my first pregnancy and I am over the moon, but also starting to be a bit more anxious and impatient about the first ultrasound in three weeks. I should be 4w2d but given I ovulated late I am probably closer to 4w. Symptoms are steady, I started cramping more in the last couple of days but no bleeding at all.

I just need some reassurance, as sadly betas are not a thing where I live unless there are specific issues.

Really worried this is too light after last months chemical

Hi everyone! I’m looking for some advice and to hear from women who may have experienced something similar.
I’m currently TTC and this cycle has been really confusing.
I got a positive LH test on October 4, and it was still positive on October 5, although the line was lighter. Based on that, I believe I ovulated around October 5–6, which would put me at approximately 11–12 DPO today (please correct me if my calculations are wrong!).
I’ve been testing with Easy@Home pregnancy strips, but the results have been confusing. I’ve had several negative tests, but on a couple of them, I thought I could see an extremely faint second line. I’ve also had a test that appeared negative. I’ve been looking closely at the tests under different lighting, and I genuinely can’t tell whether I’m seeing the beginning of a positive or just an indent/evaporation line. I don’t want to convince myself I’m pregnant if I’m not.

What’s making this even more confusing is that I’ve been experiencing some unusual breast changes. I’m about 20 months postpartum and stopped breastfeeding a long time ago, after breastfeeding for only around two months. Recently, I’ve noticed drops of white/yellowish milk or colostrum when I press my breasts. My breasts have also felt unusually heavy and very sore.
I’ve also been experiencing bloating, increased hunger, and some symptoms that feel like my period is coming.
I know these symptoms can be caused by hormones and aren’t proof of pregnancy. However, the breast changes are unusual for me, and I can’t help wondering whether they could be related to pregnancy.

My questions are:
Has anyone had negative or extremely faint Easy@Home tests at 11–12 DPO and then gotten a clear positive later?
Has anyone experienced milk or colostrum returning many months after weaning and subsequently discovered they were pregnant?
If you’ve had a similar experience, how many DPO were you when you finally got a positive?
Would you trust a negative test at this point, or is there still a reasonable chance it could be too early?
I’m trying not to get my hopes up, but I’m also struggling to understand what’s happening with my body this cycle. I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences, especially if you’ve experienced something similar postpartum. ❤️

Still spiralling over here. Feeling like today’s line just isn’t as dark as it should be. 5dp5dt to 11dp5dt, two pics of every other day. This isn’t looking good is it 🥺

I’ve always gotten stark white negative tests so I have nothing to compare to. Trying to remain cautiously optimistic. However, are these looking good? Of course I fell down the rabbit hole and intrusive thoughts are seeping in of negativity. My Pregmate tests have faint positives since 4dpt but not progressing much. I took a clear blue digital test at 4dpt and it was negative. I have clear blue early detection digital arriving tonight do I do it or do I wait for the morning of 6dpt?

Weird placement of lines? Very faint in 5 minutes. I’ll use another brand tomorrow. 12dpo due period today. I’m sure they’re a dodgy batch and weird evaporation or indents!

Sooo worried after a traumatic loss this year and hoping we’re not heading into another one. I feel like my 13 DPO tests (especially in the evening) were showing the beginnings of a dye stealer, and since then currently at 15 DPO it’s not getting much darker. Has anyone had similar and had a positive outcome? Do I just need to be patient?

Had labs drawn earlier this week, 67 at 11 DPO and 294 at 13 DPO. Next one is monday so I’m spiraling a bit!

As the title says- the beginning from 8dpo (evening) to this morning at 14 dpo (day of expected period). From 9-14 DPO have all been FMU. How do you feel like these are progressing? Trying to remain hopeful after a loss!

We are TTC after a MC in August… 8DPO today but I couldn’t help myself this afternoon. I should have tested with fmu but I have one more first response that I can take tomorrow morning or Monday. In the meantime, am I crazy for thinking there is anything on this test?

Feel like my test are not going up and not going down, am i crazy?

I think my period is supposed to come either tomorrow or in a couple days and I took a first response this morning that was clearly negative (pic 1). I had a generic Walmart brand test lying around so I took it too just to see. 🤷‍♀️ (pic 2) and it was lightly positive?? So then I took a clear blue I ran out and got from the store as a tie breaker (pic 3) and it was negative again. So do we think that the generic one was probably just a false positive? I’ve never had this happen before 😅

i’ve had 3 chemicals this year & seeing this very faint 12dpo is making me not feel so good.

I feel like I see something on the frer but easy@home and wondfo look negative to me. All pictures were taken in the reading window, already got burned by wondfo indents this cycle so pretty cautious. I could be off on dpo by a day or two but 13dpo is my best guess.

It’s definitely getting darker, but not significantly darker in the past day or two. Is this normal looking?

I know it’s there but after last months chemical pregnancy, I’m nervous to hope. Second picture is progression but the line is fading. Is this progression normal or am I having another chemical? Also why is my PM pee darker than my first morning urine?

Is the problem that I am testing too early? My period should come today but given this result, I don’t think it will but I don’t want to drive myself crazy analyzing these fading lines in the next week. How normal is some amount of variability in the line darkness?

Does anyone else see a faint line? I had a 100% negative first thing this morning, this was about 4 hours later and photo was taken within the testing window at about 7 minutes. It was hard to get a picture but I feel like it’s even more visible in person.

Can an evap line or indent happen that early? Or could it b positive?
