Trying for a Baby Part 7

Huuumphh. I am so hacked off with the pregnancy tests I have bought. They were a bulk buy from amazon and I have used them in the past with no problems but there seems to be a fault with this batch. Since I started testing on Friday, every day there has been a very faint line, more like a shadow, which appears within the time frame for the test, but then disappears again about 15 minutes later. This morning, when AF is due, I tested again with no real expectation of success but just in case as I have my spa day today. This time there was a line with a tiny hint of pink but not dead straight like a normal positive would be, but slightly skewiff. After the customary 15 minutes it had faded to a grey colour. For the first time I got my OH, who was a chemist in his youth, to have a look and give a second opinion, and his view is that it was a faulty test. I've just fished it out of the bin and the line has completely disappeared again. I also tested with the left over Sainsbury's own brand from Monday which was a BFN. So I am pretty confident that the amazon test this morning was also a BFN but it did get my hopes up unnecessarily for a while.

At least AF has not made her appearance yet. I hope she doesn't decide to show right in the middle of my massage Think I may put a tampon in just to be on the safe side, though I don't usually like to do this, but I don't suppose for an hour it will do any harm.

((hugs)) Oh dear, that's no good. It does sound like a faulty batch.
I'm sure you'll be ok with a tampon in for an hour or so. Enjoy your massage and have a nice relaxing day

Hi Nicki, could you pop to the shop and buy a digi on your way and test again just in case? Better to be safe if they are going to use any essential oils xx

I'm using the internet cheapie OV sticks for the first time this month and i've been getting what looks like faint lines for nearly a week now, should i be expecting a positive result soon or does that not really mean anything? i'm very new at this!

Thanks ladies.

We all have some small level of LH (Lutenizing hormone that OPKs detect) in our bodies most of the time which is why OPKs are not considered positive until the line is as dark as the control.

If the line starts to get darker then I would say that your body is starting to gear up for ov. Just keep checking them everyday.

What CD are you on?

Hey all


Still waiting for AF to arrive, I've had cramps for days now - some which were really sharp stabbing pains so not pleasant at all !!

Did first test since loosing baby and got a BFN, although I wasnt impressed with my new batch of IC's as they streaked like crazy ! I also had a phone appointment with my doctor (2 & 1/2 week wait for an in person one :eek:) yesterday, asked all the questions I needed about my thyroid results so feel abit happier about that

emsbet & rebekahR, we were on a quiz team and came last every single week oh the shame of it !


Hope you are all well !

Hey, been reading but not had anything to update with! Still no AF, took a test last night just for the hell of it (a friend has given me a load of IC's left over now that she's had her BFP so I was just playing around... as you do!) and it was a BFN as expected, but not as I'd hoped

Gosh Mishka, I can't believe you have to wait so long to see a doctor, I thought mine was bad because you have to ring at 8am on the dot to secure an appointment, I should stop complaining clearly!
