Ladies, I tested on 31/12 using a First Response prior to NYE celebrations to see if I was pregnant, I had a feint positive line, within the 10 minute time window, I was 10 DPO. I tested with and internet cheapie this morning with FMU and no line showed up, only the control line. AF is due on 4/01, is it worth testing again tonight/tomorrow morning with another first response? or should I wait and see what happens over the next couple of days. My DH is trying to be calm but you can see he's soooo excited about the possibility. I'm trying really hard not to get my hopes up or pee on too many sticks!!

If a cat doesn't like you, then what's wrong with you?
I hate waiting so I would test again if it were me. Good luck!

I am not a POAS addict so I would wait and the earliest i would test is 5/1 if no AF. I would stick with FR as well so you can get some consistency over across the results.

I would test in the morning with FMU, but I am a POAS addict Hopefully being 13DPO tomorrow will give you a clear result, fingers are crossed for a clear pink line for you! Let us know how you go if you test

The IC may be less sensitive, or a dud. I'd test with FR again, but I would try holding out until at least 14dpo, if you can possibly stand it! Good luck & let us know!

I couldn't wait and tested again this morning with an IC and it clearly came up positive. I'll wait and see if AF does rear her ugly head tomorrow and then book a doctors appointment. I've also bought another FR to keep up my sleeve just in case!! so exciting -but trying not to be too excited just yet.
