Question

How faint was your first bfp?

Hey all! I'm 9dpo today or so. I know that testing today is not a great idea since few women get an accurate result this early, but I just said screw it. Well I used an internet cheapie. Afternoon urine. Probably 4 hr hold. I have some frer 6 days sooner but I'm saving those. Spendy buggers. Every time I tested before with cheapies it was no doubt no line. Stark white. This time I swear I see something. But it's so light it looks like a bfn. I took an opk to compare where the line should be. I'd post but the camera doesn't show what I see. Maybe I have line eyes or maybe these tests suck. But it is very early. I'm not due af till thurs or Fri at the latest.

When I was a surrogate I tested 4dp5dt and I thought the test was negative. The next day I got bfp. I looked at the other and I realized it was positive just super super super faint.

So, my question is how light was your bfp? Did you think it was actually negative at first?

My first test was an internet cheapie the morning of 9dpo and it was so faint I thought I maybe saw something but wasn't sure. I took another that night and it was darker, so I took a FRER. Very faint line. by 10dpo the lines were darker and there was a definite line on my dollar tree cheapie.

Awesome! So good to hear. If I hold it in front of the white of my bathroom sink I can see a faint line. Doesn't seem to be colorless but it's hard to tell. I'm nervous about testing tomorrow morning but I think I'll take the plunge and use a frer 6 days sooner.
