| tested this morning, and.........
well, let's do a little background first here.
I have bought a LOT of dollar store tests. DH bought me 5, and then I went back and bought 10! LOL!
Anyways, I have been testing...alot. And, OK, I am admitting how much of a testing sick-o I am here, but, I have been, um...well, keeping the tets....BUT, only for investigative purposes, such as...is there evap lines, and that sort of thing.
All the test were showing no line, and no evap line. Last night I took one...and it dried positive (I saw it this morning when I woke up).
So, this morning I took another, and within the 10 minutes...or thereabouts, OK, maybe a few minutes longer...but, that's it...it got a grey line in the test area. No color, but visible to me, and also to DH.
So...what does that mean? I have to start taking progesterone *if* I am pregnant, but this line is not colored, so I should not take this as positive, right...I am only 8dpo today. |

| Ah, a desperate woman I hear .... and we've all been here that's for sure.
Keeping the sticks tut tut! You'll have your crayons out next colouring in that ghost line  I know I've been tempted in the past ... I've even taken out my geological hand lens to examine my sticks trying to convince myself there's something there.
I've become wiser though and have had enough torment over the months to know an evap when I see one and just accept it for what it is. The best information I have read on these evap lines is here: http://www.peeonastick.com/hptfaq.html#7
It should help you realise exactly what you are looking at and perhaps put your mind at ease a little. Hope it helps honey.
Here's wishing you good luck and sending you some lucky  |
