Thnaks for replying. The brand is called clear & simple. Think I'm worried because with my 2 succesful pregnancies I always had clear progression. Anytime its been slow progression or lighter tests its been a loss. Wish I had the willpower to not test and just wait and see! X

Yea there is definitely no will power when testing ah I found them clear & simple no good for progression but that was my opinion tho, fingers crossed for you hunni and you have amazing progression as you have had xx

I drove myself mad every day testing til i stopped and did the 48hrs and it actually made me feel better. I think i worry more this time round because we concieved ‘naturally’ where as with my youngest after suffering 2 miscarriages which wer from conceiving naturally i was on Clomid from fertility to help. So it plays on my mind. Im hoping from the strong test lines and symptoms im having that this baby is sticking!

Todays test. Not fmu as had to go get more tests. Feel like I'm seeing progression today but still worried it isnt enough. Not one shop Ive been to has FRER which was my fave tests when I was ttc my ds and dd. Did they stop making them? X

Yeah Amazon is only place ive seen them. I dont know why they dont do them here now… boots etc used to stock them. But seems to be clearblue or own branded tests now. I used boots own early detection and i felt they were similar to FRER if thats any help… i used them on the first day i tested and other tests wer very faint but it was a clear line on them. Il attach a photo for you

I know i was shocked too! I used them with my youngest but i couldnt find them at all couple weeks ago and thats when i heard. Are they not originally a american brand? Or have i made that up pmsl. Thank you! Im soo happy to get my 3+. It gives me abit more hope and positivity. I never got 2-3 or 3+ with my 2 miscarriages so i like to think its a good sign. My gut tells me everything is fine but im worried at times thats just all in my head lol

Yea they maybe are American tbh that's all you have to keep thinking you've progressed in week on test xx

 

[jazzy1]

Well today's test is much lighter, not my first time at the rodeo so I know whats coming next. Got my 2-3 weeks on a digi last night so wasnt expecting to wake up to this but also had a gut feeling something didn't feel right. Good luck to everyone still testing this month xx

Oh no fingers crossed its not what you think… what tests are they? They look like the wilko ones i had… they take 5 mins to fully develop cause i thought my line went faint but a couple minutes later it did get darker.

Theyre clear & simple and it was around 30 mins after taking. I had expected this after slow progression if I'm honest. I'm really crampy this morning too. Thank you though xx

Soo sorry il stil keep my fingers crossed for you though! Did you test 48hrs apart for progression? I found this more helpful than 24hrs

I hope you are wrong.

Obviously you know your own body but I have thought things were going to end badly before with lighter tests and cramping. I’ve even bled before and everything was fine. Tests can have different amounts of dye or our urine can be diluted.
