*update* Morning 🐱 So today is 7pt5dt and done another two tests, the first was at 5.30am and could barely see a line appearing, so did another one at 7.30am. Which did appear thicker and darker, but not as dark as yesterday...?!? I've added another picture, yesterday's is the top photo, but the test was a couple hours old and the bottom is today's at about 15 mins old.. Again any opinions welcome. I'm sure it's lighter. Sorry for being really annoying. I'm just so paranoid and anxious!! πŸ’™ Have a good Saturday πŸ’™ ps I have used a filter cos otherwise it doesn't show up on my phone lol πŸ’™

Morning All.

I caved this morning and did a test. It's just a cheap Tesco one, but there's definitely a positive line! I'm only 6dp5dt, my trigger shot was on the 7th April.

Can I feel a bit excited, or should I not get my hopes up just yet?

Any opinions welcomed πŸ’™

Thank you. Just nervous in case it's a false positive. And I'm not actually supposed to test until the 28th (two weeks after transfer), which seems ages away. I'm sure the trigger shot should be out of my system now! Keeping my legs crossed and will now probably become an obsessive tester lol πŸ˜‚ πŸ’™

Morning!

Congratulations to you..I tested this morning too, with a clear blue it says pregnant 1-2 I wasn't meant to test till Tuesday 24th but couldn't wait! Can definitely see a line with yours..

I'm feeling the same as you.. I think I'm going to be testing everyday now just to make sure!

Congratulations to you too! I feel even more nervous now than I did before!

I've read those digital tests aren't as sensitive, so if you're getting a positive result I'm pretty certain that's a good indication you're pregnant!! Woo hoo. When did you do your transfer? Was it fresh or frozen? I just feel that waiting two weeks after transfer seems such a long time! But that's what's making me nervous, still got 8 days before I officially test! πŸ’™ πŸ’™

I know me too! I wasn't expecting a positive if I'm honest, my transfer was Wednesday 11th and it was fresh it was my first time so I'm just going along with it.. it's such a long time it feels like forever! I'm sure you will be fine, especially seeing a line this early! You've done well! Fingers crossed πŸ’•

Congratulations! I tested also 6dp5dt Fet. I couldn't wait either! Had a positive! I tested everyday up to 17d. I wanted to see the lines getting darker. Xx

Thanks Becky. Congratulations 🎊

I've done another test today and the line isn't as dark... Surely it would be darker? My husband thinks it looks OK.

Any idea's why it would be more faint?

I'm going to be on the Internet all day AGAIN lol πŸ˜‚ πŸ’™

Pink tests are considered to be better for early testing rather than blue ones, maybe try a first response early response test? Good luck x

Thanks Lizzie. I have read that, Tesco doesn't do them!!! Lol. May have to venture into town and buy one. I have got a clear blue one and one that shows how many weeks, but thought I'd use that further along. Thanks for replying πŸ’™πŸ’™

Thankyou xx My one on day 7 was loads lighter! Who knows why! Xx

Oh really!! So bizarre, but thanks as that is reassuring. OK, maybe I'm just being silly and should just be a bit more positive. Like they say, a line is a line! πŸ€ͺ Because now I'm reading about chemical pregnancies and some people say its too early to test bla bla, I'm getting myself into a bit of a tizz! πŸ’™ πŸ’™

On my 1st fresh round I didn't get to test day bfn. On my 2nd fresh round I tested on day 12 bfp. This was a frozen round so there was no trigger shot. Unfortunately you can't really tell, just keep doing the tests if it puts your mind at rest. I would say try to be positive until proven otherwise. Xx

Bless you! It's sooo hard though isn't it?? So many emotions and the 2ww is an anxious time and then the weeks after, praying that it all works out. 7 weeks is brilliant!! I will keep everything crossed for you. Xxx
