Hi girls, I have to hurry. Something about the kids looking over my shoulder while I'm typing about ttc stuff really bothers me.
Katie, your test looks a tiny bit lighter, but like everyone else said, the dye amount could be different, how much you drank could affect it. Please don't worry, they look great and some variation is very normal. My first thought is that the heparin wouldn't affect it, but it really depends on how it works. How does it thin your blood? Does it dilute the blood with water? If it does then it would certainly decrease your hcg in your urine. Also, if it causes dehydration by pulling more water into your blood stream then you would drink more and you may not even notice it. What about normal swelling that occurs at times? When that decides to fluctuate it changes the amount of liquid in your urine, again things that you may not even notice. Don't worry, that's good that you asked for a beta. Tell them that peace of mind is very important for you.
Patty, I do see a line, the test looks a little dried so I'm assuming it's after the time limit???? I definitely see it though. Also, progesterone peaks at 9dpo(ish) so I would try really hard to not read too much into your super high temp today, just to guard your heart. It's just so hard to say that it means something this early. It does look awesome though and it would totally give me an adrenalin rush if I saw that because I know that it could mean something.
Nikki, yay for O. I have to admit that I was holding my breath on your chart. You got just what I was hoping for you. You likely did O, and it's likely too late to matter if you bd or not again, but it never hurts to bd again. I'll be watching, you really need a couple more higher temps to confirm.
mummylove, your chart is looking a little questionable for O. Put in your +opk and see if FF will give you a solid line. Some just have slow rising temps and that's completely normal, some have slow rising temps just sometimes and that's okay too. I would just keep an eye on it. If you have any signs of increased fertility at all opk some more just to be sure. If your temp continues to go up, then we'll know you already O'd. I really hope that you did.
Amber, boo for temp drops. I'm so sorry, that's just not fair, especially with all of those totally teasing and tormenting tests. I like babyhopes' idea, try testing with water and see what happens. Don't with pop or juice, I hear they always get bfps. Or maybe it would be good to do it just to see what they are supposed to look like. I wouldn't get these tests again. Where did you get them? I'm really sorry, I just knew you were pg.
babyhopes, your chart is still just teetering a line. Your opk is obviously + so I hope you can get busy now!!!! Please, I'm so ready for you to get another bfp!!!
Andrea, I really don't think you'll O before you finish your clomid. It decreases your estrogen and kind of keeps it on hold until you stop it abruptly and then your body will be in estrogen high gear and O will come. I really think it'll wait until the clomid if gone.
Stacey, that test is so cool. I've never used one before, obviously, he he. Okay, so there is no reading the intensity of the lines? It's either good or bad kinda like the FSH test? That's really neat. What cd are you on btw?
Oh, who did I forget? I know I forgot someone. I'm sorry.
Katie, just to ease your mind, here are a couple of my progressions on dollar store tests, they're old and yucky looking but you can still see. Both of these babies are here with me, actually inside of the toy box at this very moment.
Betas with these were 12dpo 74, 19dpo 2213, 21dpo 5749.

So these were farther along than what you are and your tests are so dark, I think they're increasing in color faster than most. I know you're not supposed to read anything into the color or the lines but we all do it. Try not to worry yourself dear. It's not good for you.
Have a great day everyone.
no matter which one thank you I still feel good about this babe I'm just as amber said lol a worry wart 
We will see?? I will probably cave and start testing later tonight. I would have to go buy some tests first though. I have a doc appt for March 2 to get my clomid so I'm not too disappointed if I am out I have a PLAN now! Plus how can you be sad when one of our girls (MISS KATIE) got her 
this week?? Go Kate!!!!!
