17dpo STILL no + on CB digi - am i alone?

[patienceiav]

Hey ladies !

I've been going mad since 12dpo last friday, i've gotten the same strength lines on my tests for 5days now, keep spotting, my specialist won't do anything but book me in for 6w2d to check me up after 6 chemicals i feel this is doomed from the start, just wondering if anyone else showed up late on digi or had faint tests which turned out alright ?

Didn't want to read and run, but all I know is digis are not very sensitive and it can take quite a bit of time to get a positive with them. I will keep my fingers crossed for you. I hope all turns out all right
I am shocked after all your losses that they wouldn't get you in sooneR. These Dr's can be so insensitive

Have you tried holding your urine for at least 4 hours during the afternoon and only having a few sips of water during that time? When I was 5+3 I did a CB digital and it said 2-3 weeks pregnant, which made me sure this would result in a chemical. Then I read that FMU doesn't count if you go for a wee in the night (I go for at least 2 - my bladder is crap lol). I tried really hard to hold my urine for 4 hours, then it came up with a 3+ the same afternoon. Maybe try that xxx

Not alone...I'm 20dpo and can only get a pos to show on FRER. Every other test comes up neg. And I've also had Chemicals in the past. Holding out hope that i'm just one of those people who produce little HCG...

Thanks Tink sadly here in sweden blood tests just aren't done, it seems like every other country does ! If I start bleeding and cramping properly I can go to the emergency gyno but other than that...

That's a good idea icklemonster I am thirsty as hell at the moment, it was a struggle not to drink much during the night, still went up for a wee at 03.30 but then i tested at 08.30 i figured it would be ok

Yay lis, i'm not alone ! are you only getting faint lines or are the FRER getting stronger at least ? Are you 100% on your dpo ? I o'ed cd14 so i can't really claim to be not as far on, especially with my first + being 5days ago !

Remember that the HCG amount that is spilling into your urine does not necessarily reflect the HCG amount in your blood.

What i have found is holding for a few hours and restricting my water intake actually produces a much darker test result for me, no matter how long i slept the night before. It seems like there's more hcg in my urine maybe because I'm up and moving around and my kidneys are "awake" or something silly...lol. but i always get a stronger positive from smu or a 3-4 hour hold...
