I think mayyybe I see something?

So I am anything but a POAS addict. I tested my first two months and after that was like forget it, not worth the stress. I'd much rather have hope till AF comes.

But last month and this month I had these internet cheapies, so I like to test at 7-8DPO because I know it is too soon, and I just like to pee on the strip!

So this am at 10DPO i tested and nothing. When I got home from work I tested again and saw nothing. Then like a few minutes later I thought I saw something. So I fished the old out out of the garbage to compare and I am definitely seeing something. It is sooo freaking faint though, like borderline ARE my eyes playing tricks?

I waited another 2 hours and tried to test again and this one I didn't see anything (although my pee was weaker), but now that it has dried I kind of see the same thing, almost like a shadow.

It could just totally be me or a cheap test, but if I was seeing an evap line wouldn't the one from the am have it too? And that one has nothing.

Oh and DH says he sees something too! I kept mixing up the tests and making him pick the one where you can see something and he did everytime.

Are these cheapie tests reliable? I think they're called clinical guard.

Please send me your best wishes! This is cycle number 8 and I have an appt to see a fertility doctor mid March, hoping I don't have to go!

Re: I think mayyybe I see something?

Please don't look at the IC's after the recommended time. I have gotten my hopes up so many times, seeing evap lines on them. I would test in the morning with FMU and try to read it within the 5 min. Good luck!

Re: I think mayyybe I see something?

I dont think they are any less accurate than a store bought test...

as long as you look at in the amount of time it tells you...

Re: I think mayyybe I see something?

test again in the am!!

Re: I think mayyybe I see something?

The second one I took was maybe about 5 minutes after I peed that I saw something, and the third test maybe 15 minutes after.

The first test was from this morning but that was the one with nothing on it.

I am definitely going to test in the am. My hopes really aren't up any more than normal. I know it's too early in general and it's weird but I am not even fully positive I see something, I mean I do, but you really have to strain. So I think it could possibly be just part of the test.

Re: I think mayyybe I see something?

im sorry - did you say you WEREN'T a POAS addict?!?
accepting that you have a problem is the first step to recovery

Re: I think mayyybe I see something?

Hahaha I am really not!

Only tonight and tomorrow I will because I thought I saw something. I am usually so good and have only used the tests that come for free with OPK.

I was buying vitamins and they showed these internet cheapies, I like to test at like 5DPO when i know it won't work!

I don't know what possessed me today, but this is probably why I shouldn't!

Re: I think mayyybe I see something?

test again this morning!

Re: I think mayyybe I see something?

Yes I tested this am with FMU and saw nothing. I am 11DPO so I know it could be too early but I am due for AF probably Fri or Sat.

I didn't really have my hopes up, but I know I did see something after 5 minutes, my Huband did too, but it was probably just the stupid test.

This is why I normally don't test! Am never testing again until I am late for AF!!!

I think they're called Clinical Guard. I got them on Amazon, 25 tests for like $4 was it? They are very thin strips and a purple line comes up for a BFN, 2 for a BFP.

I was buying vitamins and just threw them in my cart normally I don't test and this is why!
