Lighter line on FRER

[MrsTM13]

Morning, of course I've fallen into the trap of using my remaining tests and this morning when I did a FRER test just like yesterday morning and evening I gave the test to my husband who didn't appreciate that it should be kept flat and said there isn't a line. I swear my heart stopped. I did another FR but this time it was rapid response so a bit different and then proceeded to do a clearblue early response and an internet cheapie. Clearblue was instantaneous and internet cheapie much darker than last couple of days- albeit still faint. Despite this I am still flapping that the FRER didn't come up instantly and isn't as dark. I know a line is a line but still can't shake feeling of dread.

Bottom two tests are from yesterday the others are this morning.... am I going insane?

If the two test left of the clear blue are from this morning. It looks likes it's getting darker! Fabulous news. Congratulations!! Xxx

It's the ones to the right of the clear blue. 😢

I can definitely see it's getting darker . Good luck to you ! I'm on my 2nd 2 ww and went officially insane last night ! I honestly can't handle this ! Removed all tests from house as last time was testing every day ! It's worse just wondering though . Supposed to be studying for work exam can't think of anything else ! Hubby can't do anything right ,poor guy !! This is a nightmare!!! Don't feel anything or any side effects except tired !!!! Xxxxx

It's the tests to the right that I took this morning. Omg this is terrifying x

[Lynnedevine85]

When's your test day ?

[MrsTM13 in reply to Lynnedevine85]

Friday. I've tested the trigger out so I know it's not that but now just scared x

Testing can be so addictive, I would say test again in a couple of days or speak to your clinic to see what they advise.

Good Luck x

Try and wait to Friday if you can . Your torturing yourself . I did that last time too . Think it's standard practice for us all though . Look after yourself try watch movie or something .im in my 2 ww now too it's a nightmare! Loads love to you xxxx

Thanks for replying. I've emailed my clinic like the crazy person I am.

Good luck for your 2WW- ill keep my fingers crossed and look for your updates. Xx

I was wondering if it might be worth paying privately for a HCG test. It might help to get a definitive. Is that a possibility for you and the clinic?

Wishing you all the best.

My clinic only do a blood test if it comes back as faint positive urine test on OTD. The clear blue literally was instant and although I've researched I can't find out what level is picks up, I know the FRER picks up lower amounts so it's weird. I actually thought the test line on CB was the control line this morning it was there that quickly and although you can't see on IC test there is a more visible line than there was yesterday. X

I think the clear blue has the clearest line on, but that could be just because it’s a different brand. I know it’s easier said than done, especially given what you’ve been through already, but please try not to worry too much, the stress won’t be helping. If the internet cheapie is coming up darker then that has to be a positive x

[MrsTM13 in reply to Lynnr54]

I've calmed down slightly since this morning. Still having the same symptoms I had yesterday, absolutely no sign of AF which was due today. I promised I would try to enjoy every second of this and one day I've got myself worried sick due to the darkness of a line. Going to try and suck up the crazy. X

[MrsTM13 in reply to Lynnr54]

Thank you. Panic over, at least for today. Thick dark line when I got home and that's after a fair bit of water and not holding it for that long. I need to relax and ive given the advice of don't stress so many times and what do I do give myself chest pains. 🙈🙊🙉 x

[Lynnr54 in reply to MrsTM13]

It’s easier said than done though! You’re through one more day though and one day nearer to OTD! x

[Daxi16]

Try not to worry mine did this. Your urine may have just not been as strong as those IC were negative for days after FRER for me really strange! Have you done anymore xx

[MrsTM13 in reply to Daxi16]

I feel like an absolute fool. I was so worried earlier I gave myself chest pains. I've come home tested and the line is thicker and darker. Internet cheapie is still faint but maybe a bit stronger than this morning. They fade to virtually nothing- you get what you pay for 4.50 for 50 tests! X

[Daxi16 in reply to MrsTM13]

O gosh don't make yourself sick a line is a line! I honestly didn't get any lines on IC for 2 days after missed period and FRER and Superdrug were a few days before! I always read the IC are very sensitive but I don't think it's true! CONGRATULATIONS 💓💙💓💙 xx

[MrsTM13 in reply to Daxi16]

Thank you☺ I'm currently taking it easy having cuddles with my two dogs before I have to do some work prep for tomorrow. At least it's from my bed. I feel shattered x

[Daxi16 in reply to MrsTM13]
