So I'm not really paying too much attention to this cycle because we were away when i thought i was going to ovulate and we've just been busy. I've been feeling possible O cramping over the last few days and decided to take an OPK yesterday just to check. It would be really late for me to O since i'm like at CD20 or so...but i though what the heck.

So I pulled out a stick from the opk box and did my thing. I was watching for the control and test lines and started to wonder why the test line was barely there. I looked at the box and realized that there was a free hpt in there and that was the stick that I grabbed. ummm there is a very light blue line there.

Its the Walgreens brand and I read so much about blue-dye evaps. Now of course my mind is racing. What do i do?!?!?!

OMG...the waiting is driving you nuts I am sure! Knowing my personality, I would be headed to the nearest pharmacy to grab another test, probably multiple tests, and would be testing as soon as I hit the front door...but shortkake is the more rational one and is right by saying wait till morning! I hope u get another line!!!

What a great surprise it would be to get a BFP! I agree with Shortcake. Wait until the morning (or even the day after tomorrow) and test with an FRER. Can't wait to hear the update.

Oh gosh I would be excited, nervous and heading to the store I think. I hope it is a real BFP for you and not a false. Best of luck and sticky vibes.

Sorry about the false positive, but it is SO EARLY in your cycle....especially since you were just thinking that the pain might have actually been O pain....maybe it was implanting pain and you will get a BFP over the weekend! Good Luck...your not out until the wicked witch rears her ugly head!
