Okay i took a first response this morning with all these wierd things going on and I got a white line immediately at first and then it got kind of dark. It lookslike a faint positive....what do ya'll think. I'm also testing 4 days early and I'm saving my last test to see if my af arrives.

*update*

also I found that the BEST way to take picture of hpts are by placing them directing on a scanner (I have a copier/scanner) which is why it seems so bright.

i had that on lots of fr hpt 's , so annoying! this time i am gonna use superdrugs hpt's, they seem to be as good if not better (so ive heard ) am not goning to use a fr this cycle .....good luck and hope u get your bfp hun ;)
 
The new FRER tests (pink wrappers, the box says "the only test that tells you 6 days before your missed period) seem to have been causing those problems for everyone. Sorry. FX for you!
 
Oh okay, let me post a pick because it seems to be a little bit darker now...sort of..... but I had never gotten a white line and then a dark line before.
 
thank you. I have such mixed feelings about it. On one hand there's a part of me that wants it to be an actual positive on the other it was unplaned and I don't know if I could raise a baby at the momen (obviously if it was a positive I WOULD raise a baby, but you get what I mean right?)
 
i for sure get what you mean and understand completely. if it turns out to no be positive...then just make sure you're more careful till you are ready ;)
 
thank you, and yeah, we should be more careful....lol
 
the lines (on the test that i took yesterday) do look a lot darker this morning with pink to them....but I'm not testing again till I'm officially late for my period.
 
Those look exactly like the lines I was getting, and I'm definitely NOT pregnant.

I would recommend using a different test than FRER.

The new FRER tests use Polymeric Amplification Technology, which basically means that the tests are designed not to be more sensitive, but for the test line to be more visible so that you can notice it more easily if it is, in fact, there. Unfortunately, the antibody strip is now visible and even the tiniest dye that catches on the strip will be visible. So basically most FRER tests will now produce the faintest bit of a line unlike on the old tests where ANY line was a BFP.

and I seriously doubt I am pregnant, even though there is a tiny bit part of my that does want to be. Everybody keeps joking with me that I might be pregnant, and I guess its just kind of getting to me. Either way, still just gonna wait and see if I'm late. If AF shows, just hope I don't get the icky cramps, if it doesn't we'll just take it from there.

Thank you for that bit of info though, I apreciate it. I think its stupid that they changed their technology as the old tests were JUST fine. NEVER gave me the hintest of a line when I wasn't pregnant, which makes me not so sure with these tests....I hate them...I'm just gonna wait.
 
started cramping a bit today with some gas and have been extremely bloated the last few days. i could even feel my stomach stretch -_- I usually have a flat stomach so that could be why too. My breasts are extremely soar which is not one of my normal af symptoms. I've been sooo iritable since yesterday and a little bit A.D.D. my poor boyfriend got the full swing of it yesterday, I feel bad......irritability IS a pms sign to me....this is just a little bit worse...Well lets see if af comes tonight or tomorrow.

and it would help if people would STOP asking me if I was pregnant -_- mind you these are people who have NO idea that I actually might be and not people who I generally talk to on a regular basis. I just say one thing and they're like....you're preggo... -_-
 
Well today af is due, so far nothing. Have some cramps here and there but none that are as bad as my usual af cramps. Last month I was three days late and had af cramps all week.....lets see what happens....
 
I will definitly let ya'll know. Somehow I doubt I am pregnant though. It reminds me of when i was on birth control and had every pregnancy symptom in the book but was never pregnant. But I feel like i did when i was on birth control, which is why I'm wondering.... >.>
 
GAH! starting to get too scared to test. last month I was three months late. i'm begining to think I just may be late.
