Evap?

[angielorna]

I see it on the blue dye test!!! I kept hoping with the dollarstore ones. The test line would show up pink as the urine moved across then dry white. I got AF on Sunday as expected (grrrr). As I said, I'm losing faith in $ store tests.
And if you did O the 8th, that only puts you at 11-12 DPO. That can still be really early because from the extensive freaking research I've done, most people don't implant until 7-10 DPO and then it takes a few days for the HCG to accumulate in the urine for testing. I did so much math last cycle (if implantation happened 7DPO and started around 5 mg HCG, it would only be 10 HCG on day 9, and 20 HCG on day 11, 40 on day 13 -- if it was doubling every 2 days) -- as an example. hahaha, trust me, I ran a zillion different scenarios.

Sorry so long. End of story is I hope this is IT for you!!!!! Can't wait to see more

I also see the "I'm crazy line" on the inverted test, BTW. Not so much with the non-inverted tests. I'm so excited for you!!! Don't you wish it was possible to fast forward a few days?!

Right?? These Dollar Store cheapies are not my friend! One brand says not to use before the day of expected period, but the ones I'm using now don't say that anywhere on the box (I've checked haha). Still, guess they can't really be high quality if they're only a dollar compared to the $5-10 per test of name brand. Sorry to hear the ugly witch showed up! Really hope next month is your month!

I'm a bit concerned about only getting faint lines on blue dye tests since I keep hearing how unreliable they are with evaps! So VERY cautiously optimistic that a BFP might still be in my near future.

The 7th I had a bunch of ewcm in the morning and spotting all day and then nothing the next day, this is happened both times I got pg with my littles, so think it's a somewhat reliable sign of Ov. Then the 17th I had some dull constant cramps on my right side, but I don't tend to cramp at all with AF so I don't really have much to compare it to. Also had some brownish cm but that day but wouldn't call it spotting really as it came and went so quickly. I really WANT to believe it was implantation, hopefully I'm just testing too soon

Promised DH I'd take a break from my obsessive testing until Friday (probably)... hopefully I'll have a clear answer then, whether it be a completely blank test or an obvious line! This maybe almost kind of barely there lines that make you squint and tilt your head are maddening lol.

the dollarstore ones I use have the same sensitivity as FRER and I've gotten positives at 9 DPO my previous pregnancies.....but I think maybe they've changed something about them. Something bad...grumpy.

haha, DH has no idea when or how often I test! As far as he knows, I tested 2x this cycle and not at all last cycle (really, 17 times last cycle and at least 10x this cycle).

I HOPE HOPE HOPE it was implantation for you!!!!

Good luck

Thank you!! I'm not sure I can wait till Friday or not but I'll least try in honor of the promise. He has no idea either, I've gone through at least 10 so far and he thinks it's just 1 a day for the past 3 days lol. Silly boys. He just said, "It's sooo early, why bother testing now? Just wait till you're late." I told him I doubt could wait till the 27th but that I'll try waiting until Friday haha

[angielorna]

Men just do not understand! Good luck waiting till Friday oh my, 3 days away! I'm not sure I could hold out!!

It's 8pm here and I'm about to put the littles in bed.. seriously fighting the urge to throw them in the car and run to get more tests lmao.

[angielorna]

Did you go????? I don't fight the urge, I go with it :P Hasn't gotten ME anywhere though.

No, but I ran and got a test first thing this morning lol. Took a FRER with tainted SMU (drank some koolaid on the way to the store). VERY faint line again and I'm wondering if I'm just pro at seeing evaps that others wouldn't notice or if I'm having a chemical pregnancy. Blahhhhhhh. Pics in the May 2ww thread

[atomic sagebrush]

normally I would say that more evaps mean you're pregnant and I hope that's the case here!
