    OMFG. I'm in a right state.
    So at 6, did an internet cheapie and a super drug test. Both negative. So I sit on loo and cry quietly as the OHs asleep.

    Get myself together and start tidying up and now both tests now have two lines - faint test line though. Don't know how long it was I cried for - could it be a false positive?

    So need to go and get a good test - clearblue? From shops.

    At 10am... Argh!!!

    I'm a mess!!

    Wtdn fingers crossed the lines are lines- how long do you give them to develop when you thought they were negative? ICs can take up to ten minutes and the chance of two false positives seems very very small

    What do the lines look like? I read somewhere that a line is a line if it can be seen at arms length in normal light, no matter how faint x

    Thanks TL

    Line is still line at arms length.

    Just did another cheapie - 3 mins faint line appears. Ie been so convinced it has worked maybe I didn't give them chance before. I can't believe it. Until I do a clearblue I won't believe it.

    Oh my goodness WTDN, how nerve racking for you! Are there no 24h petrol stations near you that you could maybe get a test before 10?

    Have everything crossed for you! X

    WTDN - get a digital one so you know for sure. That happened to me, before now, the line was so faint we could hardly see it so waited another 3 days, for my hormone levels to rise, before re-testing.

    BTW, I just missed you. I've been awake since 4.30 and checked last at 6.30 before I tried to go back to sleep.

    Sorry wtdn - I should have set an alarm!! I know how annoying it is at six am when the forum is asleep. ;) All sounds promising though. Remember digis are not that sensitive, if you can can you get a frer?

    Good luck!!
