Thanks again girls for being so supportive! Special Thanks to Adrienne for warning me the lines would not get much darker... I would have been worried if we hadn't discussed it. Here are more tests from the weekend
The unmarked test is 11DPO at night
Top test here is 13DPO, Bottom one is 12DPO
12 DPO Digi at night, after getting a negative digi at 12DPO using FMU!
I wonder if using FMU is not always the best for some people? I took another frer, not posted, with 12DPO FMU and could barely see the line at all. My tests at night are always darker (but they are allll so faint still). Just thought you girls may want to know....maybe FMU is not always the best!

With my first +, I used FMU and the test line was soooo light. I tested with 3 different brands that same night and got a darker positive on the IC, a really good line on the FRER, and PREGNANT on the digi! I really believe if I tested in the evening a few days before my + I would have had an even earlier positive test!
Still, I wouldn't worry about lines. Have you had your numbers checked? Are they going up?

Nice! There are some who have used fmu and gotten a bfn and then used smu and it was a bfp so you're right, everyone's pee is different I guess!

LOL. I love the comment everyones pee is different  I definitely think its true.
Dani - Havent had anything tested, dont know if my numbers are increasing! I was waiting to callt he doc. until after I missed a period because I worried I'd fail an hpt at the dr.s office because they're not as sensitive.
I guess I just want to be a little more sure before going in. is that wierd?

My afternoon/evening tests always looked better than FMU too. While they are light, your tests are definitely progressing. I can't imagine you have anything to worry about.
I went to the doctor at 11 DPO, and their test line was barely there, even though I had gotten a positive on four different brands, including a digi. I was about ready to break out the pic of the digi on my phone. But the doctor said that she definitely saw the line, it was just really faint.
I would say you're good to go in terms of making an appointment. It might take them a week or more to even see you anyway.

Very True Adrienne. I'm also going out of town on Sunday for business, so I thought maybe I'd go when I got back. Of course, this week at work is by far my busiest. You'd think working from home I'd be able to squeeze it in...but I'm booked solid. Either way I think getting an appointment in the books is a good idea!

Looking at your chart it's possible you didn't O until CD 13 or 14 so maybe you are just a bit earlier than you thought. But either way I'm sure those lines will be getting darker soon!
