10 dpo and very very VERY faint line on Boots HPT - UPDATE, it's definite!

[sherlock]

I did an eBay cheapie HPT this am and BFN.

Bought some Boots HPTs today because they were had 20% off (even though I had 2 Clearblues at home ... I figure a girl can never have too many HPTs )

This evening I decided to use a Boots HPT. I've had awful crampy pain this afternoon, and figured AF was on her way (she always announces her arrival for a good few days before she turns up), so I thought I'm compound my misery by getting a negative HPT. Thought I'd waste a Boots one as they're cheap(ish)

Anyway, turns out there is the faintest of faint lines (almost a shadow) on the test. It's not evap as it was there within the 10 min deadline. I daren't tell hubby as a) he won't see it - he had trouble seeing the dark line I got with my first BFP which ended in MMC, and b) last cycle I got a positive test and it ended as a chemical pregnancy, so don't want to say anything until I have at least one more test with a better line.

I am going to test again tomorrow am with an eBay cheapie and another Boots one. And if that's no good I will keep obsessively testing

Wish me luck Will let you know how I get on.

Good luck to everyone else x

awww best of luck send a line my way my witch is due any day and really want a soon hope yours gets darker xxx

Well, I did 4 tests this am...

Did an eBay cheapie and a Boots one first. Boots one got a faint line, darker than yesterday's... eBay cheapie had nothing (I knew there was a reason they were so cheap!)

So then did a Clearblue, and got another faint line.

So then thought, screw it, I'll do a digital, even though a voice in my head was telling me that with lines that faint it wouldn't say pregnant... and it didn't

Good news is that hubby could see the lines on both tests so I'm not seeing things. Just got to keep my fingers crossed that this one sticks.

So now I have used up all my HPTs, and have to go and buy more so I can continue my testing tomorrow. Hubby shook his head and said 'you're an obsessive tester'... couldn't deny it!

lol why not go to the doctors and get a blood test its more reliable than hpt and then you'll know for sure and get early prenatal care you and baby need. x

hi allym0101- can i ask- i just notice you've had 3 losses- have they investigated any reasons as to why you've had your losses? and if so what have they done or what have they found- if i've asked too many q's i'm sorry and if u don't want to answer thats fine too! its just i've just had my 2nd but they won't look into the reasons till i've had 3

thank u

Sal I've replied to your private message hun xox

 

[sherlock]

Well, it's definite...

Did another 2 tests this morning, though I was more restrained than yesterday's 'four in one go' testing session! I did a regular Clearblue first and got a stronger line than yesterday, so did a Clearblue digi and got 'pregnant 1 - 2'

So I guess it's confirmed. Hubby is being very restrained and is 'waiting to see what happens' but this one feels different to my chemical - more symptoms, although the downside is that it feels the same as my mmc, because I had plenty of symptoms with that. That doesn't mean it's going to end the same way though, have to keep telling myself that. I just don't have a positive BFP to compare it to.

I guess I just have to keep everything crossed and try and think positive (although I am already stopping myself every time I think about 'the future', just in case).

I have got everything crossed for you all and am going to lurk around here for a bit - too nervous to head over to the pregnancy bit just yet.
