Hi girls. I tested at 5AM and it was almost stark white. I was so devastated. I immediately deleted my thread from yesterday because I felt like a fool. That wasn't the right thing to do. Other women might need that as a resource. So, my trigger lasted through yesterday, which was 10 days after the trigger shot (10,000 HCG) and 8 days after IUI. Today is 11 DPT and 9 DPO and my tests are negative. I'm feeling so deflated and I just don't know if I can go through this next month again. It takes a toll on me and I have a 2 year old daughter who needs her happy mommy. I'm so sorrowful right now.

I'm so sorry. It's so thoughtful of you to think of others at this time -- please do whatever you need to take care of yourself.
-
Im so sorry. I know its so hard to see those white BFN. Can you and your DD find something fun to do today? Go out and get some fresh air even if you dont feel like it? Push her in the stroller and take a few deep breaths.
-
Well... back to limbo land. Here are some tests taken with my second morning urine. Thoughts?
-
@CatchAFallingStar: I definitely see something in both! And I never see true squinters
-
@CatchAFallingStar: It's impossible to say at this point. You had a decent line yesterday so it makes sense that you're still getting positives.
Unfortunately I think you are going to be in limbo for a few more days until it either gets significantly darker or the line disappears. Hang in there. -
I used to love wondfos but I'm starting to not trust them as much. I got a bfp at 9dpo and while the test lines have gotten darker, they're not as dark as I would expect at 14 dpo. I've also been using first response, and while they're a lot more expensive, the lines are darkening much more. Just something to keep in mind, as each test may not have the exact same amount of dye. The waiting game is SO hard. Thinking of you!
-
I called and requested an early beta. We'll see.
-
@CatchAFallingStar: I see a good line on those. I missed the prior thread, did you go all the way to negative?
-
@jodyblair: Agreed. I think testing with a FRER maybe tomorrow morning and then again on Saturday would be best for accurate results.
-
@T.H.O.U.: it was negative at 5:00 this morning
-
@CatchAFallingStar: Those have a line. So either you had a false negative this morning and you couldn't see it. or this really is a BFP
-
@T.H.O.U.: I'm thinking it might be real because they're darker than yesterday. But, I guess I'm setting myself for even MORE heartbreak!! Ugh.
-
@CatchAFallingStar: Can you post a picture of today's tests next to yesterday's?
-
Top two: yesterday
Bottom two: todayMAN these things are hard to photograph. And I'm a photographer!
-
black & white might make it easier to see the difference in the lines.. do you think today's loo darker? (bottom two)
-
omg definitely a line!!!!!!!!!
-
@CatchAFallingStar: I think they all look very similar so it's hard to say. Do you know when you'll hear back about the beta?
-
@CatchAFallingStar: I see them and the lines do look darker for today's...
-
@mrskansas: yeah, but I'm thinking if it was the trigger, it wouldn't look slightly darker today.. 11 days past the trigger. Should hear back from them soon. They might not let me come in until next Tuesday, which is my scheduled beta. They probably have me flagged as the insane patient.
-
@pachamama: yes, definitely a line! just trying to make sure it's not my HCG trigger injection still showing up
-
The lines from today do look a little darker than yesterday's tests. Good luck!
-
@CatchAFallingStar: I don't know how much I trust those but today's do look darker to me.
-
@CatchAFallingStar: there is definitely pink on those
-
@2littlepumpkins: are Wondfo tests sometimes darker than they should be?
-
@mrskansas: Going in for beta tomorrow. So nervous. Nurse said not to use home tests again while I'm waiting this out. UGH. I'm going crazy!
-
@CatchAFallingStar: I know the wait is torture. I've been there plenty of times myself and it just sucks.
Try to get out and do something fun with your daughter this afternoon if you can. When I was TTC I was so distracted that I felt like it took away a lot of time with my daughter and I still feel guilty about that.
I'll be thinking of you tomorrow!
-
@mrskansas: I only had one test left and took t. It was Clearblue digital that I was saving for later. It said "not pregnant." Hoping it's just not sensitive enough.
-
@CatchAFallingStar: I don't know, but I know I got different results on their OPKs than I did the first response brand which was weird. But mainly - and for background I am very pessimistic about early tests because I don't like to get my hopes up- I just think the difference between yesterday and today is slight enough not to trust quite yet. Hopeful though!
-
@CatchAFallingStar:
-
Going to take my mind off of all of this and spend the day with my mom and DD. Thanks everyone for your input! I will update tomorrow.
️
-
Tore open the test like a crazy person.
-
@CatchAFallingStar: Digital tests always have two lines
-
@mrskansas: yeah that's what I found
-
@CatchAFallingStar: I don't know much about trigger shots but I think the bottom two look slightly darker. Good luck tomorrow! So hopeful for you!
-
RE nurse said the trigger is USUALLY cleared within 7 days. If that's the case, I'm in the clear.
-
@CatchAFallingStar: Did you test this morning?
-
@mrskansas: nope! I ran out of tests and didn't buy any more. So, I won't know anything until my beta number comes back.
-
Rooting for you, girl!
-
@pachamama: thank you!! I am a total nervous wreck.
