@Mamaof2: Thank you! I hope yours start getting darker, too! I have a horrible POAS addiction, too, and am very proud of myself for not testing today, yet. I will test during my lunch when I pick my boys up from school this afternoon and I am hoping so hard the lines will be darker today. I'm REALLY hoping you get your darker lines, too!
@Pandorica: I still see it! I def see it and I'm sure it'll start getting darker soon! I actually see your line better on this test than your cheapies! I'm stressing also over how light mine are, too... Hoping we both get darker lines tomorrow or later today!
@Anna: Thank you! I am hoping hard it is a good sign!
Planning on testing for the first time today during my lunch hour this afternoon. I seem to get better lines around that time! Trying for a long pee hold until then!

Scrap the soya, been told I can’t use them as I’m nursing , I’ll be going gp tomorrow as I’m fed up and need answers, what tests do I need to ask for ? I want to know why I’m not ovulating regularly and why I have horrendous irregular cycles, I don’t have pcos so that’s been ruled out, what test do I need ? X

I tested during my lunch and the FRER line was much lighter than last night's, barely even visible... I feel like I hoped for no reason. This is going to end in a chemical and I wish I didn't even test at all this cycle... I don't think we'll be TTC#3 after this, I just don't think I can take anymore... I feel like an idiot for testing early, for telling my husband and raising his hopes... now it's just going to break his heart, too. I know we haven't TTC#3 very long, but after battling depression all last year and reliving the miscarriages I've had in the past, I just don't think TTC is it for me anymore if all I'm going to get are more losses...

Sorry for my downer of a post, I'm just so confused at this point. But turns out a lot of women are having issues with FRERs, does anyone here agree?? My .88c Walmart cheapie was darker today than yesterday's and even darker than the FRER taken today, so I'm so confused but can go to bed less heartbroken.

I had a FRER turn positive immediately back in January, but every other test was negative. Ended up in ER a week or so later. They did a blood test and it came back negative. I have since decided FRERs are not as good as they used to be. I have seen lots of people have issues with them. Keep your head up @crystal. The lines are still there!!!
AFM: still struggling a bit. The day got better and I made it through. Chest still hurts and still getting cramping. I usually only get cramping on one side but this month it has alternated back and forth. Half the day will be my left side and the other half the day will be my right side. Definitely annoying!! I have been hungry all day too!! We ate dinner and I could not get the idea of chips and cheese dip out of my head so I had to go eat some even though we litterally had just eaten dinner!! So weird!!!

@mama have you tested again yet? I'm anxious to see your test !!
@pandorica maybe those tests arent as sensitive as the strips?
@shay maybe just a progesterone effect then babe? But hoping for good signs obviously !!
@Becky girl I feel the same I feel connected to you guys
@emma maybe ask for a progesterone test, thyroid, those type of things... When we got tests done I specifically remembered those 2 being requested and an egg count to see where your hormone levels are at...
@crystal oh no babe I'm so so sorry But there's hope for the other test going darker I'm seriously holding on to that for you !! It'll be okay !! It needs to be okay !!
