OK, now I am totally confused!!

This afternoon I've had some (TMI) spotting that went from bright pink to brown and a little cramping, but the smell of OH's tomato soup sent me to the toilet retching (I love tomato soup too!).....is this normal?? Still haven't taken a test as tomorrow is AF due day

Ooh, this is sounding good to me - so I will keep hoping for you as yes, I reckon all of your symptoms are pointing in that direction, as I'm sure in your heart of hearts you already know! Fingers crossed for you, very tightly now x

Does anyone else use the cheap test sticks from ebay? My af is late, was due on Saturday and I did a test on Saturday morning using one of those and their was a faint positive line, I thought I would wait until today to repeat and it was a bfn:( Just wondered how accurate these tests are.

That is a hard one to answer - I know I have read previously on here that some ebay tests are better than others? I have had that happen to me before now and I just put it down to being a rogue test - but I could say there isn't smoke without fire. So how about waiting a few days and trying again?

So I'll keep my fingers crossed for you also x

Thing is though I have just tested, curiosity got the better of me and it was BFN......now what???

It's all looking quite lively on here, congrats to all you BFP girls and sticky dust all round. Managed to get the BDing started last night - 2 high readings on CBFM and EWCM (I think!) yesterday. Not due to OV (given past months) till 19th so all pretty close, so thought I'd better try and get DH started;)

Oh dear, isn't it frustrating :mad:

Maybe you tried too early and maybe wait and try at the end of the week as planned.

A few days might make the difference I suppose, depending on the type of test used?

I'm still hopeful for you x

Well I'm on day 20 of cycle, and 6DPO and am so impatient. I think I preferred it when we weren't actively trying (with DS) so it was a lovely surprise, rather than getting obsessive about it like I feel I could do :rolleyes:

Morning all, well look at the activity on here!
Nunny and Catwoman, i would leave the testing for a couple of days and then try with your first pee of the morning as this is when the preg hormone is strongest. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you both

nunnygirl

Thanks leopardlady

Going to test on Friday as that will be another three days

Was awoken at 7 this morning feeling really sick, thats why I am on here so early.

No more blood though, thank god. I've really got my fingers crossed now!

Nunnygirl- how many dpo are you? Don't be disheartened,it could be that it's just too early..I had negative tests on 8 and 9dpo then a very very very faint something 10dpo,then from then it got abit darker every day. You need to give it time for you hormone levels to rise. Oh,the tests I used were ebay cheapies. Good luck hun xxx

Good luck to all you girls-I can't leave this thread behind! Im nosy and like to see how you are all doing

Ebay cheapies are the ones I use and the lines I have got have never been strong as such, they just get less faint with increasing HCG. They work fine as long as you follow the instructions etc.

Once I get a faint positive on the 10 miu ones I then wait a day or 2 (and do another cheap one just to be sure the next day!) then use a different one e.g. an Asda one to see what that says.

I have had a faint positive at 10dpo on ebay cheapie which was 2 days before AF due (my LP is about 11 days) they stronger line 11 dpo on another ebay one and a strong bfp on an Asda one and that wasn't usuing the first pee of the day (was past 7pm!) but everyone is different so they say and it can take longer for the HCG to build up sometimes.
