I know I can't be the only one that's still peeing on sticks until my doctor appointment.
I took my second test this morning and it was a shade lighter than the one I peed on yesterday evening. I'm trying to not freak out and telling myself the hcg doubles every 48 hours, so just breathe and wait but that's easier said than done when you're a loss mama.
If you're still peeing on sticks come on in and we can be each other's support system!
Definitely still peeing on things. The Wondfo tests are very unreliable when it comes to analyzing darkness. So I'm trying not to read into anything. But the FRERs are too expensive to pee on every day. I have 2 CB digitals with weeks estimators left that I'm saving until I think it won't say 1-2 anymore.

I have one saved for this weekend. I may go get some more dollar store cheepies just to have around. Now that I'm officially "late" I feel a little better but it's so nice to see that second line.
Speaking of that, does 1-2 on the CB digi really mean 3-4 weeks pregnant? So I need to wait until 5 weeks to have it say 3-4?
I always assumed it meant 1-2 weeks after conception since it's obviously impossible to tell if you are going to conceive. It's sort of silly though that we count the weeks like we do.

I am definitely still peeing on things! I've got a bunch of dollar store cheapies and a couple frer's. I spent way too much time analyzing line darkness this morning. I don't know why I do this to myself.

Haha yep. I just took a digital this morning because when I used a digi when I got my first BFP the other day (on a wondfo and FRER) it still said "not pregnant", and that took the wind out of my sails. Thankfully this morning it said "pregnant". My first appointment isn't until 11/29 (!!!), and that's a long time to keep testing, so I think I'm gonna have to put the tests away so I don't go insane...
I tested this afternoon while impatiently waiting for my second beta results to come in. I used a dollar tree test and the line was way darker than my FRERs had been two days ago! Even though it was mid-afternoon and I had already chugged a gallon of water and peed every fifteen mins.
And then it was confirmed by my betas more than tripling!! Woo!

I am still peeing on all the sticks. I'm not actually late yet and with DS I didn't get a BFP until the day of my missed period. This time I got one three days early. I'm planning on going to the dollar store and get some cheap ones today so I can have some peace of mind.

So I did go and get dollar store tests and they were so faintly positive it made me worry. I guess because they are less sensitive than the early detection ones? I'm going to keep testing but hopefully by tomorrow (when my period is due) it will be darker.

they are sensitive but the darkness of the line is not an indicator of anything with them. A line is a line is a line. Hugs
notelsie, I got my BFP on Saturday and had my betas drawn on Wednesday, so I think it'd be fine for beta/confirmation of pregnancy. Did you have to supplement progesterone with your DS?
linny12 I was on progesterone and estrace with DS, but it also took me almost 2 years to get pregnant with him. This pregnancy is from 1 month of NTNP so maybe my hormones balanced out? I don't want to risk it either way.

Oh yeah, I don't blame you. Were you seeing an RE for your son? I had to with my DD and even though I got pregnant without her help this time, she's still monitoring me until I'm released to my ob.

I was seeing an RE when I got pregnant with my son, but I tried calling them and they told me to call my OB office. I wasn't too surprised since I haven't been a patient there since December 2014.
I got in touch with my PCP, but they keep calling for information.. I'm not sure what is going on.
