I'm 11dpo, and as you might have seen on the other thread, here's my test. I got a faint BFP yesterday and today's is more clear for sure, but with two miscarriages behind me, I'm terribly nervous. (My CP I didn't get a line until 13dpo and my early miscarriage that never doubled right was darker than this at this point so I am feeling a little hopeless!!) So if you can humor me.... Tell me about your successful squinter!!!

With C, around 10 dpo my wondfo and dollar store tests were so light I wasn't sure there was actually anything there. Next day my frer looked just like that. I had a full term, uncomplicated pregnancy! Good luck- in ire this must be so nerve wracking! When can you get in to see your doc?

@Foodnerd81: I'm supposed to call them Monday to do the beta

These were my tests. I'm not sure what day I ovulated, but this was cycle day 28 (day I was expecting AF) so I think around 14 dpo. I had a negative two days before.
The frer was quite light but my son is now 13 months.

@Mrs. Champagne: wow your Wondfo was dark! That's weird that it was darker than the FRER!

@travellingbee: I don't think darkness on the frer means too much, honestly. A line is a line! (Hard to believe that when you're waiting, I know!) Mine never got much darker than the above pic.
I think you've got your sticky baby

I know I've told you mine was light but here is the pic for comparison. First is 10 DPO (you can barely see it in this one!), then 12 DPO, then 14 DPO. I'm sure if I took one 11 DPO it would have been just as light! I can't really say it is a "positive story" yet but I sure hope it is, for both of us!!

Mine would have probably looked like that or lighter at 11dpo. Based on the line and my beta (34) at 12 dpo I only maybe would have got a real squinter at 11dpo and it was stark white when I tested at 10 dpo.
Really hoping and praying this is it for you! FX!
Here was 12 dpo:

I'm so hopeful for you! I think the line looks great! I'm no help as I had twins so my HCG was very high by the time I tested, but in all my years of staring at pregnancy tests on the Internet I have seen a lot of faint positives that were perfect, healthy pregnancies. I'm so hoping that this is your time!

Mine were both squinters, so much so that I posted here to ask if I was seeing things. I had some heavy spotting in my first pregnancy (which was actually the darker of the two), but my daughter is now almost thee! The second pregnancy (really light at 11-12 dpo) was easy and perfect and that daughter is now nearly one. My tests also showed up at the end of or outside the test window time.
Congrats and good luck!!!

@travellingbee: that looks very similar to my 11dpo test I had with my now 3 week old. Praying for a sticky one for you!

I don't have a picture, but my BFP looked like the middle one one from @Mrs. Taco: 's pics 3 days after AF was due, and it was a successful pregnancy! I hope this is it for you!

I had a squinter at 12dpo, and it stayed light through 14dpo when I forced myself to stop testing for a few days. I'm almost 20 weeks now. Good luck!!
hostess / papaya / 10219 posts
Thanks ladies! For some reference, this was my 10dpo with my only successful pregnancy. So that's what's in my mind.

I didn't get any kind of positive until 14dpo! I took a dollar tree test that morning and it was stark white, but I had implantation bleeding so I knew I was pregnant. I couldn't wait another day for FMU, so I went out and got a FRER and digital. The FRER was very, very light, but the digital said pregnant! She's 2 now.

@travellingbee: Here is mine I am not sure of DPO days as it was a cycle break from IUI but my period was due the next day if I counted 28 days from last AF
The next day in confirmed with a digi and it said pregnant!!!!!!
DD is 4 months cuddled in bed with DH
I think you are ok
Congratulations

I got a very faint positive at 14 dpo, on an frer. I'd taken one the day before, completely white. After a previous early loss with faint and late showing positives, I was terrified that it was happening again. But I'm now 22 weeks along with a healthy baby girl! Good luck! I hope you have some answers soon. Feeling like you're just waiting for inevitable bad news is awful.

I'm sure I could dig up pics, but with my first pregnancy (DS) I had squinters from 9 DPO - 13 DPO on FRERs. Yet when I had a beta done at 15 DPO it was high enough that the nurse remarked it could be multiples. Contrast this to my last pregnancy - a blighted ovum - where I got strong lines on wondfo and FRER from 9 dpo on. It's so hard not to put stock in the tests! Sending you lots of good luck vibes.

My line at 8dp3dt (11 dpo) was definitely that light and my son is now nearly 2 years old. I think different people's bodies process hcg differently- mine never got overly dark like I have seen some people get (I also always get darker tests NOT using fmu).

@FaithFertility: I've got digis! I'll take one tomorrow.

First, congratulations! Second, I didn't even get a positive until 12dpo and it was lighter than yours today. I'm 15.5 weeks pregnant now!
pomegranate / 3533 posts
@travellingbee: That's a great line! I tested at ~10dp5dt (so 15 DPO) and my line looked very similar! Currently, I'm 24 weeks pregnant! FX for you!

I have been on this roller coaster. I had to cps one of which I followed with tests. With that I had decent lines but they went lighter. I was still convinced it was okay but the beta that day was negative. So this last time I tested my trigger out and for to white. Then had very light on the wondfo which never really darkened. My frer was a line. The next frer was lighter. I was positive it was over so I wanted the beta to get another cp on record. It came back positive and then doubled.
Moral is: you just never know with these blasted things. I have the progressions on my computer not my phone and can share them later.

I had a superlight FRER at 13dpo with lo1. He's now 2.5!! Good luck and congrats!!
grapefruit / 4819 posts
Here's a pic of my wondfos from 15 DPO with DD1 - they were incredibly light but she's nearly 3 now so they were obviously correct
pear / 1812 posts
Both pregnancies had super light tests. I am now 8 weeks pregnant with a 20 mo old. A positive is a positive. If it makes you feel better, wait a few days and test again.
pear / 1881 posts
Can you call your clinic and say that you got a positive? Maybe they will do betas sooner and then you can get some answers? It doesn't hurt to ask - they worst they say is "no, we need to wait until Monday"..

Congrats!! This was my test 11dpo (super late at night, 11pm?). First time I tested so no reference but it was fainter than my frer at 12dpo early AM w a previous chemical, and I am almost 27 weeks now. Fx that this is your sticky bean!!
squash / 13764 posts
ETA here is my 11dpo test with this pregnancy! Super light and I'm 15 weeks along It looks very similar to your test today!
hostess / papaya / 10219 posts
@FaithFertility: I just took a digital with SMU and it was "not pregnant". Ugh that hurts. I'll wait a couple of days. My HCG must be pretty low. But the line in the light looks better!
cantaloupe / 6869 posts
I don't have my pics on my phone but here's a link to my thread with pics: http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/help-i-think-this-is-a-positive-digi-said-no
Basically, I had faint positives on 10DPO but the digital said not pregnant. 11DPO the line was even lighter than the day before. I was worried about a chemical but it all worked out!
eggplant / 11861 posts
@travellingbee: Give it a day or two digi are not sensitive like FRER!!!!!
eggplant / 11861 posts
@travellingbee: Plus it was SMU I bet mine would have said not too, that day I had betas and they were only 74!!!!!

Here are mine, 8 and 9 DPO. They were pretty light, but I never took more pictures after that unless I was texting them to my husband. My line wasn't really dark until 15 DPO and H is 18 months old now.

I had a negative test at CD36 (normally had 28 day cycles, but when I thought I ovulated must've been off!) He's watching Daniel Tiger on the couch now.
cherry / 188 posts
I think that line looks great for 11 dpo! It looks just like mine did at 11 dpo, and my son is five weeks old now. I hope this is your rainbow baby!
pomegranate / 3516 posts
@travellingbee: Definitely give it a few days. With LO1, a digital showed up as negative at 12dpo and DH made me wait until 17dpo (very quick positive). I don't think I took a digital until 13 or 14dpo this time.
