hi, sorry you’re feeling so much anxiety - I’ve been there and know it’s a really stressful time.

Your clear blue in the evening probably didn’t show a line because it was late in the day and not FMU (ie not as concentrated levels of hormone to be detected). If you want to keep testing before Wednesday then I’d advise FRER because they’re more sensitive and you could see line progression from the ones you took earlier. Best of luck and early congrats - hope everything goes well for you xx

Hi Lucy. It is looking positive, but all I can say is to test first urine of the day, but try and hang on until official test day. All the best. Diane

thank you Diane. I wish I had waited for official test day as just going out of my mind now. And have learnt my lesson to wait xx

Never mind it’s so tempting and easily done. Fingers crossed. Diane

I might give you an answer that is not very positive sorry about that but I prefer to be honest. I will only share my experience, your one might be completely different. The tests are indeed positive but the line is too light for a day 9 post transfer, in my case when I had them just like yours ended in a chemical pregnancy. I really hope is not the case for you 🤞 Clear blue was positive also for me showing 1-2 weeks pregnant but in just 2-3 days was showing a complete negative. Stay strong my love ❤️

That is truly something to worry about. I suggest you ease up on testing at home for now and try to wait it out until Wednesday. But you can test if you can't help it just early in the morning and only once in a day, even once in two days. Testing is like a panacea as it makes us feel we are in control.

I really know that it’s hardest thing to not to test and you just want to know what’s going on. Having had two chemical pregnancies, I know what extra heartache and distress testing so regularly can bring on top of an already very anxious situation. It’s hard but I would wait at least until your OTD and go from there. You unfortunately can’t change what your body is doing right now and I only found more peace with it when I let my body just get on with it and if the worst happened then it happened and if didn’t that would be amazing. I know that’s not an easy mindset to be in (I really do know!). Tests are not always a true representation of what is going on and the only thing that will tell is time.

Take care lovely xx
