Hi Everyone,

I have been getting these faint positives on every test I've taken in the last week and I'm going nuts because I've had pregmate burn me before with false positives, but on the other hand these seem....real? I have PCOS so dpo is pretty undeterminable. I did have light brownish pink spotting in lieu of a period around the last time it was due. Now at (according to the app I use) cd 88 (if that wasn't a real period). I've been gagging a lot and have been more tired than usual, but otherwise feel pretty normal. I have an HCG blood test booked tomorrow, but wanted outside opinions on these lines while I'm waiting for that. TYIA

At first glance it looks negative but if I squint I swear I see a second line. ChatGPT showed a second line when inverted. Will definitely retest in a couple days but am I going crazy???

Hello! My wife and I had our frozen embryo transfer of our one and only euploid embryo on July 1st. We were not planning to test early but of course we got excited and nervous and went ahead and tested.

We think we might see a very very faint line on the tests from today (4 days post 5-day transfer). Does anyone else see the lines?

Hoping it resolves and its own. Im terrified of an ectopic. This will be my 3rd chemical in 5 months. Officially messaged my OB to see what the nexts steps are. Surely this isn’t normal?

Trying for a 2nd baby for the last few months. When I got pregnant with my first it was not planned, we were not using protection but I was also not tracking ovulation. On top of that, I only took pregnancy tests if I was late on my period.

This time around I'm tracking ovulation and testing usually starting 8-9 DPO for the last few months and its rough seeing the negatives. But I try and remind myself that when I did get pregnant 2 years ago that it was around a year of unprotected sex (once again no tracking so there were instances of unprotected sex outside of ovulation) before getting a positive test. So I just have to remind myself even if everything is perfect timing and im keeping track of things, it just might not be my month and thats okay.

Feeling a bit scared and not sure what to do. Can anyone tell by my lines if it could be ectopic or chemical? We have an overseas trip coming up at the end of the week and I’d hate to have to go to the hospital in another country if it’s ectopic. Should I go to urgent care?

On the left is a test from 3 days ago, when my HCG was tested at 302. Right side is today. I wasn’t going to test, but then I had some bleeding and became afraid. I have a history of ectopic pregnancy that presented with bleeding at basically this same time. I can see the line has darkened but I’m not sure if it’s as dark as it should be, given my HCG should probably be around 900-1000 right now (if it is not ectopic and doubling properly?)

This is my fifth embryo transfer; I had three failed transfers and then almost died from my ectopic pregnancy last time. This whole process just scares me so much. I wasn’t going to test at all today and was just going to wait until tomorrow’s blood test, but then I started bleeding and panicked. 🙁

Would you consider this a dye stealer?

I used Easy@Home and Walmart cheapies with my son 8 years ago and they were my favorites but it seems like they both suck now. If I didn’t have other brands on hand I would be panicking. The comparison has the best lines but I took several today that looked as light as my 9-10 DPO tests still. I gave up on the Walmart cheapies already but I just got a new box of Easy@Homes specifically for progression and it kind of seems like they’re gonna be pretty worthless. Anyway, don’t despair if you’re in the same boat. Try another brand before you panic.

8 dpo mid afternoon hydrated urine…. I know I know, but I just had this feeling. Not sure if I see something because I WANT to see it or if it’s really there, but I really think I see something and it showed up by 5min. It’s so light I can’t tell if it has color or not. Obviously I will test again with more ideal conditions tomorrow but thank you all in advance! 🫶🏼

I had the pregmate tests from when I tracked opk and I could swear there was a very faint second line. My fiance told me to try one of these to see if there was a more clear line. And this is what I got. Am I going crazy? Because I swear theres a second line, I just wasnt expecting it to be so faint since these clearblues are more sensitive than the pregmate so I expected a darker line. 13 dpo, first round of letrozole after inconsistent cycles.

I deleted my first post due to just being in my head. I may do the same again for this post but just wanted to see if anyone else sees a PINK line and no colorless grey?🫩 Been testing since 9DPO ans have seen the FAINTEST of line and now that I’m 11 DPO the line is still ‘faint’ but it’s finally pink and slightly more darker than the rest of the tests.
First photo is today (like 15 minutes ago) without glad and the second photo is with flash.
Does the faint line seem accurate for an 11DPO? Or should it be darker already? I tested around 12-13DPO for my first pregnancy in 2024 so I’m unsure how is this lines up for 11DPO. Can you tell I’m nervous 😮‍💨

The top is the chemical pregnancy I had in May. The bottom is this week. I’m feeling much more positive about this one!

11DPO. I don’t want to get my hopes up too much, but this is positive right?

I have been trying to conceive for years and I have a history of getting excited with imaginary lines. Do you see something there? I see a line very faint and I took a second and see the same line.

Has anyone had a line like this at 20 DPO and still had a successful pregnancy? I’m so scared. I have not gotten any dye stealers. I just switched from easy@home to FRER so I don’t have a progression to show.

Also - for those of you who have gotten bloodwork, do you call your doctor first or just go to the lab and do it on your own?

Which looks darker? Losing my mind bc I didn’t test out the trigger! top is 3dpt, bottom is 4dpt

I’m so scared that I’m hallucinating the second line, this has been my first FET after MFI and Endo messed with my husband’s and my fertility for almost 3 years. Fully Medicated transfer so no trigger. Please take a look with me!

I know I should stop testing, I’m just so worried after an early loss in January. Praying all goes well with this little babe. My HCG last Monday was 63, I redraw tomorrow 🙏🏻

Hi all! Just wanted to share my experience here in case it’s helpful for anyone.

Earlier this year, I had two consecutive chemical pregnancies (one at 4 weeks and another at 5 weeks 2 days). It was a really difficult and heartbreaking experience for us.

We decided to take a one-month break to give my body (and my cycle) a chance to recover before trying again. This is now our first cycle back trying, and so far everything seems to be going well. I’m feeling hopeful, but also very cautious after everything that’s happened…. Just taking it one day at a time and really hoping this little one sticks.
