I took two for dd, and both were positives (the first one I didn't wait long enough before throwing out, but it was clearly pink when I fished it out later), and ttc this time always nothing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468478 Sat, 20 Feb 2016 07:21:07 +0000 LCTBQE 2468478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LindsayLou: but what a success story for a 14-dpo squinter :heart: :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468474 Sat, 20 Feb 2016 07:17:27 +0000 MrsKRB 2468474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely. It was the first time I ever got a positive test after 2 years. I was so sure it was going to be a chemical that I didn't get excited until my 2nd beta. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468466 Sat, 20 Feb 2016 07:03:52 +0000 brownepiano 2468466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've tested in varied amounts but not really doubted that much. First pregnancy was a miscarriage and I remember testing a few times to see if I really was losing the pregnancy. Second pregnancy I tested a few times because I was paranoid but I could tell I was pregnant without the test. Third pregnancy I never took a test. My body makes it really obvious really early and I didn't want to spend the money. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468418 Sat, 20 Feb 2016 01:22:36 +0000 LindsayLou 2468418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. With my first pregnancy (ended in miscarriage), the lines were super faint. I used a blue dye test first, and it was so faint that I didn't believe it until I could see a slightly darker line on a frer. With my second pregnancy (healthy 6 month old), I was so anxious after the miscarriage and freaked out about how faint the lines were. I had a stark white test at 13 dpo, and a barely visible line at 14 dpo. I had a feeling I was pregnant, but still questioned the positive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468367 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 22:41:01 +0000 LCTBQE 2468367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With this pregnancy, I questioned the first faint-but-decent FRER line at 11dpo because I was coming directly off a m/c and wasn't sure if it was leftover hcg from the old pregnancy. I tested again at 12dpo and the line was significantly darker, and that's when I was sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468342 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 22:05:49 +0000 winniebee 2468342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never used to, but now I have had so many chemicals that I will never believe a line no matter how dark. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468341 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 22:04:38 +0000 iheartleopardprint 2468341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had never heard of squinters until I came here! My tests with LO 1 and 2 were both glaringly positive after AF. The test with LO3 was clearly there at 10dpo as well. I don't think I would trust anything that wasn't obviously there, and I know OH wouldn't either. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468339 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 22:01:10 +0000 nana87 2468339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had like 10 squinters with my chemical pregnancy. With lo it was a very clear line </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468330 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 21:33:10 +0000 yellowbird 2468330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I totally had squinters! This wondfo is 9dpo with C and the frer is 10dpo! </p> [attach=1925/16/o2tr3a.600x450.image.jpeg] [attach=1925/16/o2tr3c.450x600.image.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468322 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 21:21:01 +0000 Ms. RV 2468322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My first test was 10 dpo and it wasn't a squinter at all. I didn't question it. Whether or not I believed it was a different story!! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468249 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 18:56:55 +0000 YouGotMe 2468249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had been so used to seeing negative tests that when I was finally pregnant with LO with the help of the fertility clinic it was a shock how quickly the positive showed up. </p> <p>The other day I got a cheap test from the dollar store and it gave me a faint line. I was going to post it but it felt weird. I'm 95% sure I'm pregnant either way. Just too lazy to keep testing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468219 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 18:02:39 +0000 HLK208 2468219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I had a wondfo that was super duper light with my third. I didn't test early either! </p> <p>With this last pregnancy, I took a blue dye test and they've been wrong in the past so I wasn't sure if it was true positive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468212 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 17:49:56 +0000 Torchwood 2468212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really? My first and second I tested late enough it was obvious. After that I had a feel for what pregnant feels like so both times I knew before I tested. So even though they were so faint I didn't even bother showing DH right away, I knew. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468206 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 17:39:58 +0000 FaithFertility 2468206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not this time!

All the time. I've definitely questioned tests that turned out to be completely blank, but all 4 times I've ever gotten pregnant I've started out with a super squinter (i.e. For two of the pregnancies I had discounted the morning test as negative, but then it nagged me all day and when I retested later that day got a clearer positive). I am an early tester though...I have absolutely no patience for waiting!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2468088 Fri, 19 Feb 2016 15:43:38 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2468088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My first positive was light but it definitely wasn't a squinter. There was clearly a line there! I just could hardly believe I was actually pregnant! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2465848 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 10:50:47 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 2465848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only one (during a non pregnant cycle). But it wasn't a squinter, it was a blue dye that smeared that I bought by accident. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2465677 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 09:49:45 +0000 Ash 2465677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never!

I found negative tests really devastating, though, so I only ever tested if I was already late. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2465598 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 09:17:42 +0000 LBee 2465598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovehoneybee: I see that one! It's so hard to know though about squinters - I see that one, but then I've seen other ones that people post and later report back that it wasn't really positive. Squinters confuse me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2465596 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 09:17:34 +0000 lilyann 2465596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never questioned them with LO1 or LO2 (blaring positive), but this time around, my cycles are wonky! I wasn't sure when to start testing :bummed: I am questioning my tests right now, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2465594 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 09:17:19 +0000 youboots 2465594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. My cycle was wanly even 6 months after being off the pill so I had no idea when/if I ovulated. I took the test on the 4th of July because I had plans to drink that day. By the time I took the test it was very clearly a :bfp: I had no idea. I did not question it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2465587 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 09:14:41 +0000 lovehoneybee 2465587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LBee: This was my first test for G. It took us over a year to get pregnant with E, and I rarely tested at all during that time. I tested at 13DPO with him because I was charting and my temp spiked instead of dropping the day my period was due. This picture was 10DPO, our first cycle trying, and I tested on a whim...I didn't think there was any chance I was pregnant, I just wanted to pee on a stick, lol! I posted it on here because I wasn't expecting to see a thing, and thought my eyes were playing tricks on me (I had literally been awake about 5 minutes...) </p> [attach=1866/16/o2qy8i.450x600.Capture.PNG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2465560 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 09:04:25 +0000 snowjewelz 2465560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My first test was a dud, so I was like ?!?! It just didn't have any lines, not even the control, lol! So then I got SO weary! The 2nd one in the same pack showed a faint line, but at that point I was so unsure. But I was on vacation at the time and that was all I had; by the time I got home and tested with FRER it was a blazing positive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2465557 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 09:02:42 +0000 schubr03 2465557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was pregnant, I took a test at like 6am. I thought it was negative, so I threw it away and went back to bed. While I was in bed, something told me to get up and check the test again. Sure enough, there was a line. I couldn't believe it. So I was until my husband left for the day and I went and bought a digital test. It then clearly said I was pregnant. However, I continued to test for the next two weeks until my first doc appointment because I just couldn't believe it. Here is my photo of my first tests.</p> <p>[attach=6988/16/o2qxoi.600x337.image.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-question-your-tests#post-2465554 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 08:59:38 +0000 Foodnerd81 2465554@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes for both pregnancies. For my first I tested early and super faint lines, but on two different tests and Dh saw them too, so I was pretty sure it was positive. </p> <p>With my second the lines were clear as day, but the tests were expired so I thought maybe it was a mistake, since I was sure I couldn't be pregnant. Nope, preggo. </p>
