*** February Testing Thread***

OK, so I looked at the instructions to see if I was dipping too long or something and apparently I'm not dipping long enough. I thought too long would make it saturated and it would just flood it with dye, but I dipped 2, 1 for just long enough for it to work, and one for the 15 seconds the instructions say, and it did fully run across much quicker. I've never had tests say 15 seconds "at least" they always seem to say 10! I'm p6retty sure it's still negative, maybe a shadow. Here's the one from this morning, then underneath is the one I dipped quick, then the one I dipped longer. This is right at the minutes, you can see there's still some dye going across the top of the middle one.

Swear I can see a faint line on the middle one..do you see it in real life?
 
@wrapunzel yes bottom is newest, I can’t really see anything on it in person but who knows lol! I will pick up a FRER later and test again in the morning I guess

@atx614 wow really? Yea yesterday I had the runs so bad so many times throughout the day but they weren’t painful, just had to go bad and fast! Lol

@Deethehippy i can’t see anything in person but maybe the phone picks it up better I have no idea but I am quite a bit dizzy today!
 
Okay now that it’s dry I can see a more clear line on it?!? I have no idea what to think lol
 
It’s still lighter but clear blue was a clear negative just the cheapies are coming up
How sensitive are the cheapies compared to clear blue? I think the cheapies are usually 10 mlU, whereas clear blue is like 25. Maybe that’s what the lines are only showing up on the cheapie? I’d keep testing if I were you and your bleeding stays light.
 
But could it be an evap? I didn’t have any FRER this morning because I didn’t think anything would show today. Lol

of course it could be an evap but you're using the same tests and stuff so I am inclined to trust it. Wait until tomorrow to use a FRER!
 
Hi everyone, sorry i haven't be active on here for a bit. i have been popping on last few days and reading. I have tried to stay really relaxed this month. I don't think we caught the egg this month, don't think we did enough bding or even at the right time. I could be anywhere between 7dpo -9dpo. If i am 9dpo then af is coming this weekend. We only bded twice in the fertile week cd 15 and cd 17. I can O from cd 15 to cd 18. will be very surprised if we get a bfp as we have bd more in fertile week and spot on the right days and still not got a bfp so guessing no chance this month. I am so temped to buy some OPK if af comes, i dnt know if its caused me more stress not knowing what day O was. i have then saved in my basket on amazon. Still keeping testing day as the 16th as af would be late by then. had some af like pains today it really felt like she was coming, haven't had my sore throat like i normally get. nipples are sore like normal. Maybe i should get some OPK and some clearblue ovulation tests too.

good luck to all testing now and still waiting to test.

I know what you mean about more stress not knowing. I have friends that tell me that I should just ignore my ovulation date and relax (can’t do that even if I wanted as I have o pain every month), but I know I’d be WAY more stressed not knowing when I ovulated compared to knowing and then being able to tell if I’m actually late for af or not.
 
Same, I usually get really clear signs of o. I could live with not opking but I wouldn't be able to just relax and as soon as I got o pains or ewcm I'd be trying to remember when we did it and worrying if we should so it again just in case.

Yeh i used my last ones last cycle and thought will try a month without to see if i could just relax but no it seems to have bothered me not knowing if we could have or not. If af isnt here by 16th then i am late. earliest is 13th and lastest is 16th. getting pains now all on left side and just feels like af is coming. i had a feeling i O'd cd 15 which would mean af coming saturday wud make sense for the pain. not doing OPK just has me guessing more. would be ok if i didn't know the range i O in but i do, i know the signs my body gives me as we tried for 11 months for my son and did fertility testing.
 
Af showed this morning 2 days earlier than expected. Went ahead and ordered ovulation test for next month. Onto cycle number 5 hope the ovulation test help!!
 
@motherofboys 6 days!! Wow! And I'm over here stressing about a 10 days

@Lottielouf looks good! Fx! Lol can't wait to see your "off" brand tests hehehehe

@PinkCupcakes you could still get a positive. You aren't out til AF arrives and I swear it looks like there's something there!

@Jessie1229 I'm sorry girl

@realbeauty86 any update? Excited to see!

@Flueky88 aaahhhh... gotcha.

@wannanewbaby sorry AF arrived. If we aren't successful this month, next month will be my 5th cycle as well. We'll get there eventually :thumbup:
