The top two are from yesterday, bottom two from today. None were done with FMU.

Super, super, super faint lines on all 4 tests. I'm sure half of you won't be able to see it though. This defies all logic and can't possibly be right. :/ LMP was Mar. 17. Unless I O'd on CD 7-8, it makes no sense at all!! I don't even know what compelled me to do an HPT cuz I've only been doing OPKs a couple times a day. The OPKs I have are crappy and sooo bad, but I use them anyways for the heck of it...and according to them, I've have 2 days of positive results so far (yesterday and today). Ah poo...I don't know what to make of it. It's not leftover HCG because we tested that down...unless my HCG rises for some reason when I ovulate. Is that even possible? Argh..someone take my tests away from me.

My body is wacky. Just before AF, OPKs and saliva test indicated I was gearing up to O...then bam...AF shows up. Lasts 6 days..a typical AF for me. I don't know what to think about anything anymore!! This is sooo frustrating.


Does anyone have any insight for me??

OPKs can show up positive for pregnancy as well, the LH that they detect and HCG that rises during pregnancy are very similar in structure, so the antibody on the test strip will and can detect HCG. The timing is off though, so I am not sure, however, I think I see lines on the bottom two test strips. I would wait a few days and try again to see what is happening, the HCGs could be indent/evaps, it's hard to say.

Fingers crossed!!

I do see the lines but I'm not sure if they have color to them or if they are grayish? Also do you know what expiration date are on the packs of these? June 2013 had a few bad batches so if that is the expiration date I would call and they will send you new ones. I'm holding out hope for you hun!

sweetie!! Mine do this about every month and don't get darker. If they do get darker tomorrow I would use a FRER to double check it.

Yea, these aren't the bad batch. I checked when I got them. I actually had the bad batch with my pregnancy that ended in February...and they gave me super faint early positives just like this, and they turned out to be accurate. There were some in that batch that were smeary and had lots of marks and scratches on them, so that is what was "bad" about it. I'm still not sure what to think though because this timing is just odd..... I've never had any hint of a line unless pregnant though... :/

On my tests from today..in person, you can see the purply color. Today's are darker than yesterday's. I tested again today cuz I thought for sure I was seeing things yesterday.

I've done a few more wondfos...all have super faint lines. I'm holding out til morning to try a dollar store one or frer with fmu. But... I did an experiment, dipping the wondfos in water...and the water ones are stark white. Soooo I've concluded that I'm still not convinced I am pregnant...but it's me making the lines show up, not faulty tests... interesting...

I've got everything crossed for you! I can see faint lines and that's on my phone so there's definitely something there. I really hope it's BFP!

I am up now and just tested . This mom gets to sleep in til around 9 cuz my kids like to stay up late. OPKs are still very dark positives..which would make at least 3 days in a row. 2 more positive Wondfo HPTs, and a maybe positive FRER..its so faint though my eyes might be tricking me. l'm still not sure what to think. But this is exactly how it went with my pregnancy in Dec....super faints on wondfos for a few days before anything really good showed up on anything else.... I'm trying not to be too hopeful...

Oh, Julie........ I am SO hopeful for you right now! I read one thing where a girl said her quantitative hcg at her doc's office was below five and she was getting a + on the wondfo. It takes much longer to rise in the very beginning -- I'm hopeful for you!!!!

I got a 5 on a blood test an hour after I got a positive on a Wondfo HPT. They are crazy sensitive!

Wondfos didn't work as well as FRERs for me, but I got faint lines on the Wondfos for days before they started getting dark. I hope that somehow this is a new pregnancy for you!!
