i was the same, just used ics from 9dpo then when I was sure i saw the faintest of lines on the evening of 10dpo, i used a frer with fmu at 11dpo and it was a lovely bright line. I then waited 48hours before doing another frer and a further 48hours before the digi (and ics everyday...but got a pack of 20 for a few quid off ebay) lol.
Pma hunny! Im keeping everything crossed for you xxx
