Thanks guy but starting to feel a plum now as the recent ones this evening are all so so faint I would call them BFNs!!!
You never know hon and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this IS it but with our history of false positives of chemicals we have to at least try and keep our hopes at a manageable level.
When I say "us" I'm referring to avaha, Dan-o, yourself and I on the forum -at least!- to get lines starting with the 3rd day before AF on both ICs and CBs and then not end up preggers.
I think the statistic probability that on this forum we would be at least 4 women with the same issue (false positives due to a naturally high level of hgc despite no medical reason) which they claim happens to 1 woman in 13 million -I think- is rather low so that leaves us with either:
A. Chemicals month after month after month and many more people have them except they aren't POAS addicts like us -low probability considering how long we've tried for and that none of us is 20 and in perfect shape but possible since all 4 of us seem to have rather shortish LP with not so heavy flow so maybe a progesterone problem-
or
B. All tests are crap batches and often give out false positives;
or, (and this is my personal theory and completely empirical, strictly from years of online TTC)
C. There is a category of women -over 25, a tad rounder
and posibly with a beginning of PCOS, etc- who have a higher concentration of the hormone every month and the incidence the medical community claims is wrong. -
You're trained in this field, right? I sure wish this is your BFP this month but if not can I interest you in an empirical research program on here where we collect data about our cases? At least we'd put our
s to good use and we'd learn something!
