FRER Question re Evaps (updated, pic included)

stillwaiting · #1 July 14th, 2012, 05:08 AM

Have you ever gotten an evap from an FRER?

So, I took this last night, it was stark white, I looked at it 3 or 4 times then put it in the medicine cabinet and today looked at it again and it looks sort of pink, but because it didn't show up in time, I think it's an evap.

I've just never heard of an evap with FRER! SO FRUSTRATING!

If it didn't show within the time frame I would say that it is an evap. Are you going to test again?

i have had that happen with frer and never ended up with a bfp, so it could definitely be an evap. i don't even know why i look at them in the trash the next day...but I do, lol. i hope it is just really early and maybe today you will test with a bfp for sure!!

The worst thing we can do is look after the time isnt it lol.

I used to be so guilty of that lol.

I hope its there and when you next test there is a sure little wonderful line waiting for you.

It sounds like an evap, but that doesn't mean you won't get a BFP in a day or 2. I would re-test in a few days. Good luck!

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!

i will be the minority view and say i'm super excited for you b/c i think that's a real line Leah! I have never had an evap with a FRER - not ever, and i've probably taken 1,000 (seriously) - and while I know some ladies have complained of evaps with specific versions of FRER sold at Walmart (and some other stores) i heard those lines were always grey, no color.

Anyway, you need to test AGAIN and soon - go hold that pee and report back pronto! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you but I'll be shocked if you aren't coming back with a BFP!

Thanks girls!! I think I'll test again (with an FRER tomorrow). I might go do another IC right now LOL!

I KNOW it's early and I'm not out yet. I just HAD to test, because a friend got a bfp yesterday and I was hoping I would too!

I agree, girls, I don't know WHY I look at them after the fact! GRRRRRR, but I do

Ahhh!! I see it totally clear

I'm going to have to agree with Lara... I think you have a BFP on your hands dear! I'll be watching for an update!

OK, so where's test #2 for today?? Waiting to hear!!!

stillwaiting · #10 July 15th, 2012, 03:57 PM

Hey girls, today's test is negative. I was spotting earlier, so had high hopes it was implantation spotting, but I'm afraid it's going to turn into af (with the cramps I'm having). What a sucky bday present!

jennar · #11 July 15th, 2012, 06:47 PM

Oh no!! I'm so sorry. I hope that you had a nice birthday anyway! I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for you....is it still early?

EverydayJoy · #12 July 15th, 2012, 09:21 PM

Aww BOO to that!!! I'm sorry.

stillwaiting · #13 July 16th, 2012, 06:29 AM

I'm still just spotting, but today's test was neg too. 11dpo. But I'm CD29, which is getting long for me. I guess my body is still not back to normal.

L-SBB · #14 July 16th, 2012, 07:09 AM

i'm still keeping my fingers crossed for you Leah!

EverydayJoy · #15 July 16th, 2012, 10:28 AM

There's still a chance, right? I hope hope hope!

stillwaiting · #16 July 16th, 2012, 10:34 AM

Thanks girls, yes, I guess there is still a chance. I know it's silly, but with Mallory and my last m/c - I got a positive on 9dpo in the afternoon. It's now 11dpo, so I feel like I should have a line if I am pg, right? I know you can implant late, etc.

I feel like all the symptoms I've had the last week have all vanished now. ie headaches, sore bbs, etc. So far it's only spotting when I (tmi) wipe, but I have cramping like af is coming.

I'm really emotional today and down. I think turning 36 has really hit me harder than I thought and I know it's just going to get harder to get pg.
