Ttc #2

So I'm 8 DPO and was feeling a little gloomy ... not many signs or symptoms, temps holding steady at about 97.9 to 98. I took an OPK and it surprised me by being positive. I thought that was a little weird. I have one FRER in the house. I used the other two with my chemical pregnancy. One had a super-faint colorless line, the other was negative. I took this test at like 11:30, so not FMU or even SMU ... in fact there was only a little bit to test with because I'd just taken the OPK. And this popped up within five minutes.

Thoughts? I'm kind of shocked.

I promise it looks pink in person! I'm trying to attach a different photo that's more clear.

I also attached the OPK, which is not FULLY positive but is way darker than it should be on CD22.

There's no denying that's a positive pregnancy test. Congratulations. Wow 8dpo! :)
 
Thank you, kirsty! Honestly I'm shocked. I didn't get a positive with my son until 10 DPO and it was SO faint a camera couldn't even capture it. I had to wait several more days to see a darker one. I'm also wondering if I Ov'd sooner? Maybe CD12? FertilityFriend was pretty definitive with the crosshairs but I don't know!

Yeah I agree, there is NO DOUBTING that line. That's a BFP! :wohoo:
 
Second - that looks totally positiv!!! My first thought was, I wonder if you are more than 8dpo. It's not even a squinter :) congrats!!
 
Thank you!!!

I have no idea what happened! My temps were so low on CD13 and CD14 and then went back up on CD15 ... it seemed like a really obvious temp rise. But if I'd only been watching EWCM, I probably would have guessed that ovulation was on CD12 and that I'm 10DPO right now. Irregular cycles are so frustrating! I'm cautiously hopeful and still honestly shocked.
 
I was going to ask if you'd used OPKs at all. Definitely seems dark for 8dpo. But 100% there! :)
 
Congrats! That's so great! So happy for you! Wishing you a happy and healthy next 9 months! And a big bonjour to you TTCing, I bet your glad the stress of that is over! Wow, I'm a little shocked myself that it's so dark, any chance of two babies?

As for me- I need eye's please. I am currently 16dpo which is WAY too long of LP for me. I have had a couple squinter's and then they went to neg's so I figured I was out, but AF still hasn't showed and when I got a squinter the last time on DG test, I decided to do a double dye test "experiment" just to see what happened. Well, the last time I did this I thought that OPK and PT dye were the same, so it wouldn't matter, I was wrong. You HAVE to use PT dye. When I used the OPK dye I got a blazing + last time, but once someone asked which dye I had used and re ran the test with PT dye, I barely got a line and it looked all crazy like an evap or dye run would, where it was a thin dark on one side light on the other and wavy, not at all what a real BFP would look like. Well, this time, with PT dye it looked exactly like a BFP. Which I thought was really weird, bc I've tried doing this several times, when I thought I saw squinters, and this has never happened before. I'll post a pic of those results compared to the last time I did it below, and then put up pic's of this morning's squinter,and last night's FRER and CB Plus. Let me know what you think.

Now, this is from this morning, taken while still wet, and well within the time limit. Do you ladies see anything?

Filter changed to bring it out more, bc it's super faint

Last one from this morning. I swear I can the faintest little pink line on it.
 
I saw VERY strong positives on CD 11 and 12, and then a positive that was getting a little lighter but was still clearly positive on CD 13. Very mysterious! I guess they'll be calculating my due date from LMP anyway, but I wish I had a better sense of ovulation.

From what I've read, every pregnancy tends to be a little different in terms of how quickly a HPT shows a positive, so maybe that's all it is.
 
FRER from last night. Don't know if you will be able to see it. I think I'm seeing things myself. It's so faint and I can't tell if it even has color to it or not. First is with blue filter, second is different photo no filter.

I'm on my phone so not much help I can't see anything on the last pic but I can't zoom in. I've not heard of using opk strips how does it work?

I'm 9 days post implant removal and have come out in terrible spots around my jawline. They are very sore and fierce. Is this likely just hormone change from the removal? For someone who rarely gets spots it's very annoying and so so painful. I know it's wishful thinking but I hope it's hormone change because of a fertilised egg and not just the shift from implant removal! Think it's probably way too soon though.

Yes it is probably just from changes in your hormones, but at this time there is really no way of knowing whether it's from the implant coming out or pregnancy

This CB+ is from just now. Line popped up almost instantly but is super faint. This is driving my nuts.
