So I bought some of those stick test thingies (idk what you guys call them) but essentually a HPT. I took one yesterday, and at first I didn't see anything, but then I even asked my boyfriend and he said he seen a faint line.... I took another one today but I don't see a faint line. I had an OB appt today anyways and they just did a blood and progesterone run and I should have the results tomorrow. I will take pics of the two tests and post them on here tomorrow as well and you ladies can tell me what you think. The invert pics are done on photobucket? Oh also the doc said she is going to start me on progesterone shots as well since I told her we were TTC and my last m/c was due to low progesterone (9.6) and its supposed to be at least 20. So hopefully the doc will call back tomorrow with some positive news. I will keep you ladies updated.

Thanks for listening.

** Oh and how accurate are those test strips you buy online? I bought mine from babyhopes.com I believe......... and I am not sure of my exact DPO I would assume it's between 8-10DPO is 10 DPO still too early? If this cycle doesn't work I have an OPK to use next month then at least I will know my exact ovulation date.

I think the name you're trying to remember is Internet Cheapies (ICs). They can be accurate, but the only thing with them is that they are prone to evaporation lines. So you really have to be careful to make sure the line shows up within the time limit and that it has color. I hope that your tests continue to show lines on them and that this is your BFP. Your bloodwork should be able to tell you something, too, if you are past 7 dpo or so. Fingers crossed for you getting good results back!
