Hi Ladies,

Good luck TaNasha, I hope there'll be some good news on this thread tomorrow. I agree-we haven't had a BFP in ages!

Andy-you can put my testing date for the 23 Sept.
On CD12 now and dh and I will have to get our butts in gear if we want half a chance this month.

Everyone else-have a lovely sunny day!

Shame man, just remember... Even the slightest, lightest, teeniest, tiniets shadow of a line is still a positive. I was reading this earlier...

"What does a faint line on a pregnancy test mean?

On a pregnancy test, a faint test line - or colour band (in comparison to the control band) - indicates a positive result, as long as it is read within
the allocated time frame - or reaction time of the test (15 minutes). If you do the pregnancy test properly and read it within the recommended time frame, then a faint and weak line is very likely a positive pregnancy test.

The presence of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) doubles every two days in a pregnant woman. In cases where a faint test colour band is present, it is recommended that another test is done after 24 - 48 hours using first morning urine.

Explanations for a faint positive line include:
- You may be testing too early after conception - your hCG level may be below the detection level of test. hCG doubles every two days, so wait and test again after 24 -48 hours using first morning urine.
- Different test sensitivity - as tests detect hCG at different levels, a faint line on one test brand may appear as a darker line on for example a 20 mIU test.
- Urine dilution – the urine may be diluted due to frequent urination or a high consumption of liquids. First morning urine is recommended for pregnancy testing as it contains the highest concentration of hCG.
- Chemical pregnancy - sometimes, an early pregnancy is detected - followed by negative test results. A chemical pregnancy occurs when a fertilized egg does not implant into the uterine wall. The menstrual cycle usually begins on time or a few days late. "

I know most of this we already know, but maybe it will put your heart at ease just reading it again... :P

Thanks Andy!

I am so nervous, I just really want this to be it!

But who knows tomorrow i might be sobbing because AF arrived.

I have been looking at some + test from people where th eline is very very faint and they consider this postive? I want to see a big visable line! I hope this is the result that i will get, but with my luck i will probably have to look for that line

And last but not least....

Another HUGE temp drop the day before +HPT and she tested on 10DPO!!

And there are many more where these came from on the FF Chart Gallery.

Tomorrow you'll be 15DPO AND you have that early detection tests, so I think you'll be OK. FX you when I log on first thing tomorrow morning you've already posted your positive result!!
