FULL DISCLOSURE : These are old! I am now nearly 15 weeks pregnant!!!!
PLEASE READ:
-simply posting for reassurance for all you wonderful women testing early!!!
-I am a crazy tester. Was just deleting pix from my phone and wanted to share
-I know I’m revealing my nutty testing ways but I have no shame after years or miscarriages and also being a total control freak
-A lot of us drive ourselves batty with which test is darker?! and why isn’t it doubly as pink?! etc etc etc and I wanted to show how much it can change in the amount of just 2 and 1/2 hours and with different tests of different brands (each within the same respective pack)
-These are from when I was about 9dpo back in September
-I had red bleeding this day that tapered to brown then went back to red within a week. I had cramping and back pain.
-my hcg the day AFTER these were taken came back at only 23! ***and the line at the doctors office was BARELY VISIBLE***
-They were all taken on September 25th between 4:30pm and 7:00pm yes with different urine samples each time
******this same morning the FRER was a squinter only I could see, the cheapies were stark white, and the digital was negative*******
-used FRER Early result, Walgreens digital, and Amazon surepredict 10hcg (allegedly)
So - try not to worry too much in the early days - I truly feel a line is a line and it’s not always going to perfectly darken each time! And even within the same batch, the same hour, or even the same PEE things can change - and certainly day to day it varies even more - but that’s another post for another day!!! Some cramping and spotting is never medically considered normal but it sure is common and in my opinion rarely results in anything catastrophic.
good luck to everybody!!!!! I truly pray all you ladies get whatever results you want!
