Why am I so full of worry? Maybe I should splurge on a FRER. I was in a pharmacy in the town I work at this morning and they were selling them for £10 which is a LOT of money but I'm starting to feel worried!
Oy vey. Someone slap me. I'm
13dpo, I shouldn't yet be expecting much, should I? It's normal to have insanely faint shadow lines on ICs even now? I had more ICs come in this morning so used one and it's still soooooo faint. :(
I would splurge and get a FRER. They are the only test early on that I truly only trust.
Lassie, I would be interested in a look if you want to PM also all the notes you send Drama so I can see a pattern and maybe figure something out for you.
Congrats lightofmylife!!!!!! Whooo hooo!!
Any line no matter how light is positive I thought ?!,
I agree with auroara, I would get an FRER. It will really help you to alleviate the stress, and at this point, you really should know by the results of the FRER... I know it is a lot of money, but with the cheapies, you may be going through this for another 2-3 days at least!Quote:

Your chart still looks good. I'm sorry you're going through testing hell! xo
I couldn't agree more. If I lived anywhere remotely close to you, suregena, I would have shown up on your doorstep with a FRER days ago. :bigsmile:Quote:

What would my chart be doing if there were any reason to worry? I woke up sweating this morning, as my chart shows my temp was up further, so I hope I'm just worrying for nothing. I either want a definite bfn or a bright bfp. This in between am I/am I not business is making me a little sad! :(
Then a FRER's definitely what you need. At this point you should be able to get a nice, solid line with one - especially with FMU. Just think how good that will feel, and then you can eat whatever you want with no guilt. Well worth the £10, if you ask me.
I'll be crushed if it's super negative... considering all the faints I have right now. I mean, they're still realllly faint.
ICs never worked for me until quite late - and I had ones that were supposed to be 10 miu too. I think if you're getting any line at all on the cheapies you should get a nice line on that FRER tomorrow. Good luck!
Thanks! I've got myself all worked up. :( The lines seemed better around 9dpo and now they are literally ghostly. I can still make them out, but barely. But maybe it's just something to do with the minimal dye in them and the ebb and flow of hcg increases?
I'm pretty sure I used FRER my two miscarriages, and maybe the odd IC, which were faint I think, now that I think about it. My other pregnancy I used an IC but I was already 5+ weeks by then. Maybe because of that good result I just have it in my head that they're excellent or something!
Fingers crossed for me. :( I've got all my mail stuff in... I have 14 tests now! Hahaha! Two digital, two FRER, and 10 IC's.
Here's hoping... I REALLY WANT TO BE PREGNANT! I DON'T EVEN CARE IF IT'S A BOY! I just want a baby! Argh!
