I did in my first pregnancy….my advice would be to go and buy a pink dye (first response early pregnancy) test, much easier to read! I had the faintest of faint blue lines thay nobody but me could see, so followed a friends (also TTC) advice and bought a pink dye one, but had to go to a work meeting….I was sat in that meeting wishing to god I was pregnant as it was aboht some new changes coming in that I did not want to be a part of. I was so glad yogDear Tattlers,
This isn't my usual thread, but I have nowhere else to go. I've just had a really REALLY faint blue line. I do feel "different" and tired, but every month I "scan" my body for "different" but I'm never pregnant. We tried for 4 years for our first, it's now been at least 3 and I've had polys hoovered out of me twice in the last 2 years, I'm now 42. I honestly feel like this is PMT/another polyp. I've done 2 tests, day 29 and 30. I'm won't count myself officially late until gone day 38 - the day I tested last time and it was a BFP. Obviously all I have to do is wait a few more days and, but has anyone else had a faint line and turned out to be pregnant?
I would get your hands on a FRER as these are the most sensitive I think!! Good luckDear Tattlers,

You can get them on Amazon prime for next day deliveryI'll see if I survive the football tonightand if everything is good, try to get something pink tomorrow. Guess it serves me right for being cheap the waiting is KILLING me!!!
Hey, hope the doc gets back to you soon but I’ve been spotting a bit in my luteal phase and have been doing some research on what could help. Apparently lots of women have had success taking daily vitamin C and vitamin b6 and b 12 to lengthen their luteal phase and reduce spotting before their period. Some ladies have gone from 7/8 day luteal phases to 11/12 in the first month.So I finally got my bloods read by the doc , she said all is normal which is good but the reason I called was because my luteal phase was too short 3 months out of 6 which seems forgotten about so il wait to see what happens this month & il cal back. We are both now sick & there was no DTD this month so makes no odds. Kinda dying for my period to come to just put july behind me!
Hope everyone is ok xx
I can see a very faint line on both testsARE YOU KIDDING ME??
ARE YOU FRICKING KIDDING ME????
I went on the internet and found out that Action do the best (and cheapest pink tests - great!)
So I cycled all the way into the city, only to find that Action was closedDecided Etos might be the place to go, but they didn't have any tests turns out they were behind the counter, even at over 40, I was a little embarrassed to ask. Then I wittered on about wanting a pink test, not a blue, so I think I completely confused the assistant whose English wasn't brilliant. €7, my UK card was rejected and so was my Dutch card, so I had to call my hubby to transfer some money. At this point I got chatting to a lady from the stables, just as we parted, she said "oh yeah, you couldn't pay, that's embarrassing" seriously wondering if she actually saw what I wanted to buy??
So I finally went home with my test and simply couldn't wait for tomorrow, so did it there and then. OMG, how stupid of me, because now I have a test with a faint blue line....... And a test with a faint pink line
Seriously.
This drove me a little insane, so I decided to come clean to my hubby who was on his 10 minute lunch break.
"that's not a line"
"do you not think it's a faint line?"
"yeah, it's a faint line"
"I'd brick it if you were pregnant"
"oh really? Well maybe you should have thought about before you shagged me - for THREE WHOLE YEARS!!!"
So I'm still very much in the same boat that I was a few days ago. I can't even!!!

Am I going mad? The pink one does look a little darker in real life, but you still have to squint.
I honestly think that I'm just going crazy

Thanks so much for the info. With being sick I’ve been on a mad vitamin surge , so il add the b12 & b6 to my intake.Hey, hope the doc gets back to you soon but I’ve been spotting a bit in my luteal phase and have been doing some research on what could help. Apparently lots of women have had success taking daily vitamin C and vitamin b6 and b 12 to lengthen their luteal phase and reduce spotting before their period. Some ladies have gone from 7/8 day luteal phases to 11/12 in the first month.
If you google it there’s a lot of success stories on other forums for TTC but there’s also this lady who did the on and off for 12 months:
My monthly results — The Preggers Kitchen
Schedule Cycle charts, using fertility awareness methods to track menstrual cycles, published to show the impact of healthy natural lifestyle and food on treating PCOS naturally.www.thepreggerskitchen.com
I’m trying it this month as I’ve been spotting from 7/8 dpo both cycles so going to see if I can stop that get a longer luteal phase. If it doesn’t work I figure it can’t hurt as it’s only vitamins but we shall see. Thought I’d share in case you don’t have much luck with the doc x
I can see a line too! Fingers crossed for you!!! xxARE YOU KIDDING ME??

My period returned 6 weeks after mine- the waiting is awful xNearly 5 weeks post mc now and still no sign of period returning. Feel like I can’t properly get back into trying until it does and I’m worried it’s going to take ages. Any words of wisdom?! Should have been finding out the gender around now which sucksI will always wonder what would have been
I can see it. Try again in a day or two with first morning weexx
So sorry for your lossNearly 5 weeks post mc now and still no sign of period returning. Feel like I can’t properly get back into trying until it does and I’m worried it’s going to take ages.

Please don’t apologise, you are not bringing it down at all. We are all here for if you want to chat or just to rant or moan. My heart aches for you and I hope you get your two lines soonHi everyone,
As expected my period is starting. I saw a little bit when I last went to the toilet. So I know what I'll see when I next go obviously. Ridiculously I have been holding it in as I just don't want to see it. I don't know why, I knew it would come, I had no doubt, but i know how I'm going to feel still and I'm on the verge of tears already.
Anyone else do silly things like this? I've literally seen a bit of blood, I don't know why Im still hiding from it.
I guess the awful fact that it really isn't happening, so much so I can't even imagine it anymore.
So very soon I know I'll officially be cycle 20.
Never had a hint of anything in those 20 long cycles. Will I ever get to see two lines? My heart is hurting that it could mean i actually may not. All this joy I see other people experience at falling pregnant, an amazing surprise, it happening exactly as planned. There is no joy in TTC. All I know from wanting to be a mum so much is the pain now.
My heart is hurting. This journey is so very hard.
Sorry for bringing the thread down
Started my period today as well, cycle 26 now I think, I've lost count. Gonna book in for an IUI in September, just need something to happen before I lose my mindHi everyone,

You’re not alone at all, I do the same and hold out that bit of hope that maybe it’s just not my period - when I know full well it is.Hi everyone,
