This is my first post and I've spent countless hours researching so I thought I'd just ask you guys! We're not ttc yet so I'm a little panicked (we're waiting until I'm done school in a year).
Background:
- Never conceived as far as I know
- Endometriosis diagnosed with 1 uterine fibroid and 1 partially blocked tube due to scaring (unknown source). I had surgery 2 years ago to help with the irregular periods and pain and the surgery helped immensely.
- 26 day cycles with periods lasting 6-7 days
Aug 3-7: regular period
Aug 14 (CD12): EWCM
Aug 15 (CD13): EWCM
Aug 16 (CD14): EWCM & sex
Aug 17 (CD15): creamy cm
Aug 18 (CD16): A LOT of EWCM with streaks of red blood (so much very stretchy ewcm that it shocked me!)
Aug 19 (CD17): watery & creamy cm, w/brown spotting for an hour
Aug 20 (CD18): creamy cm, brown spotting
Then normal cm as period approached only with the occasional pale yellow cm and pale yellow ewcm few days before period
Aug 28 (CD 26/1)-Sept 1: regular period (a day shorter than normal though)
Sept 3: Dollar store hpt w/very very faint red line so I went and bought drugstore brand tests (Equate) and it appeared negative
Sept 4: Took the other Equare hpt w/morning pee and glanced at it and it looked negative
Then today I took another look at them by holding them up to the window and all three have a very very faint line. And the line is coloured and in the exact spot where it should be and the same width as the test line so I know they're not evap lines. As you can see from the schedule above, I'm not sure when exactly I ovulated either because I just go by cm.
As for other symptoms, I've had mild cramps for the past few days, tired, and emotional. But over the past 2-3 months I've been super emotional from about CD5-CD15 so that's not that odd for me.
I'm going to take another test in a week or so but I'd love to hear what you guys think in the meantime! I haven't taken a test in months so now I'm wondering if I had of taken a test last month that maybe something would have shown then too?
As for the tests, I can see the line with my own eyes in bright light but when I take a picture you can't see the line unless you up the contrast. So here's two pictures with the contrast on high so you can see! Otherwise the camera won't pick it up. But my eyeballs see it! BAH!
