Anti-Crazy Filter Needed (BR)

[amaristella]

Okay, so. I promised myself that I would never be on an internet message board posting pictures of things I've peed on and asking people for their opinions, but you know what? All that went out the window just now because DH is somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic (or some other ocean?) and I'm going bat-shit crazy.

So, please tell me what you think of the top one. It showed up within one minute, and irl is clearer and pinker than my camera made it look. The middle two also looked positive but it didn't show on the pic and the bottom one only looked positive after it dried (different brand).

Seriously, I just cannot get a single optimistic thought into my head right now. My brain just won't let it.

I see it on the top one!!!!! Congrats!!!

[amaristella]

Thanks Mel! I'm just so torn. Insanely torn.

As TTGP would say "digi with FMU!" LOL

I see it on the top one... I hear from the nest that the morning pee is the best pee for pg tests? idk. thats what they always say.

I have to say, never having taken one or seeing one in real life, my pg test knowledge is extremely limited.

My favorite phrase is applicable in many situations.

"Don't Panic!"

Not that it solves much, but in case you weren't planning, were planning, whatever, just take a little time and absorb it. Thinking clearly when the positives aren't clear is not easy. However good over-the-counters are, nothing beats a real'n'true blood test. Then you'll know for sure what you should be panicking about exactly!

See, with Leslie my lines were always darkest in the afternoon. Of course, with Leslie I also had a no shit positive the first time I tested, which was at 12dpo. (Right now I'm 10-14dpo) But then again, something was seriously wrong with Leslie.....I always thought that my hormone levels with him were abnormally high with him. My beta at 8 weeks with him was 287,000.

I actually already have a box of digitals. I'm just afraid to use one until I'm fairly confident that it will turn positive. I really don't want a test telling me, with words, "no".

Also, it's time to write my daily email to DH and I'm trying to figure out what to say to him. I'm thinking just to tell him only that my spotting still hasn't come back (normally it stays till AF) and that my temps are still insanely high. I might wait until a digi says yes to tell him because I'm petrified of getting his hopes up then having to figure out how to let him down without a radioman figuring it out and filtering the email. The CO has basically point blank told the FRG that sailor mail only exists to boost morale.

The top one looks positive to me.

I had a few that looked like that when I tested at the end of last week. I finally bucked and bought a Clearblue Digital test, and it came pack clearly positive (gotta love the digital test!). This was at 12DPO, because I absolutely couldn't wait any longer.

If you think you might only be at 10 DPO, then maybe wait another day or two (if you can stand it!) and go for the digital test:-)

Fingers crossed!!!

[meltoine]

I'm 10 DPO and I got a positive on a digi this afternoon. I say take a digi first thing in the AM, and report back!

[MrsAggie]

Yes, the morning is the best time to test BUT....you're pregnant. Congrats

[amaristella]

Hmm. Tried going to sleep. Woke up thinking maybe I could go ahead and do another cheapie and now my spotting is back, bright and red. Now I don't really feel like the digital is really going to be necessary. Thanks for the support guys but I just don't feel too sure about it now.

[NomadicMama]

Girlfriend, hang in there. I see a faint pink line on the top one, but I totally understand how heartbreaking hope can be. My thoughts are with you!

[amaristella]

I think I've resolved to waiting 2.5 hours until the base clinic opens to call and beg for a blood test. That would probably be the best thing.

[amaristella]

Okay. Finally got some rest and calmed down a bunch.(promise!) I decided to keep an eye on temps and spotting over the weekend. Hopefully I can get some good fmu samples to test with and I'll go from there. Thanks again for being so tolerant of my crazy fit when I needed it most. You guys are so awesome.

[baconlettucetomato]

Fingers crossed for you guys!!!

[twoplustwo]

I bled (heavily) with both of my pregnancies at the beginning, don't lose hope.

Wishing you the best!

[bettydraper]

I definitely see it on the top one!

[iluvmytxrgr]

I see it!! I would do a digi just to be sure, though.

Mel!!!! Congratulations!

[prettyinpink]

Ditto Ojo! Many prayers and fingers crossed for you!

Haha ok phew! The responses like "I see the faint line" confuses the heck out of me. I see all the lines and none look faint. Where am I looking?!

OK I zoomed in a lot maybe I see what they are saying, a very very very faint line on the top one to the left of the dark line?

Yes, you are looking to the left of the dark (control) line. A light pink line is visible in the top picture.

Stella, praying you get a positive on the digital. Having hope is tough. (Hugs)

Looks like a line to me Fingers crossed!
