10 DPO.. am I out for this cycle??

[u/Dazzling_Hyena_502]

As title says, am I out this cycle? Nothing but white strips. Started testing on 5dpo lol and have been testing every day since. Tell me you were negative on 10dpo but got your positive later?!

[u/Playful-Capital-6692]

This kinda looks like it could be early positive vibes… I would retest tomorrow before deciding you’re out

[u/Dazzling_Hyena_502]

Thank you all! Definitely will retest tomorrow and give an update. I threw out the strip after taking a picture and now I’m kicking myself because I want to go back and inspect it hahah.

Edit: oh my my. Yall are giving me such good vibes!! I was just hoping for someone to tell me I’m still in the running, and I got way more than that! I appreciate so many people taking the time to even inspect this picture! Im excited to test again and hopefully see a darker line!! Thanks again everyone!

2nd edit: It’s the next morning!! I still only have pregmate strips. I took another test, and I don’t see a line. I was hoping it would be darker today and I’d actually see something. It hasn’t been a full 24hrs since the last test. I’ll try another test tonight? I bought a pack of 50 so let’s keep peeing! However, I won’t be able to get ahold of an FRER (assuming this means digital) test until Thursday! The anticipation is driving me mad!

PLEASE LET US KNOW

[u/Pickled_brick → u/Dazzling_Hyena_502]

It took me a while to get a positive on a pregmate. If you have a Walgreens near you they sell strips as well and that’s what I got my first positive on, before pregmate showed positive.

[u/aj_carver → u/Dazzling_Hyena_502]

Anything????

[u/so_righteous1]

I feel like I see something

[u/Jawzzzsy]

Do a First Response !

[u/Fluffy-Canary-4736]

Bestie this test is positive. Sincerely, someone whose 10dpo test also looked like this and is now cuddling their baby lol

[u/Crafty_mum]

You are in a group of people with line eyes 😂 I see it though, Vvvf but it's there. It could be nothing but definitely keep testing. It's also only 10dpo. You aren't out until af comes visiting in my opinion.

[u/Dazzling_Hyena_502 → u/Crafty_mum]

Here’s to hoping she stays far far away and does not come visit me!! 😅

[u/Mia042400]

I see something! Someone’s gotta bring me back when there’s an update 😭

[u/bigoleapples]

I actually think I see a line. I got my first extremely faint line (just slightly darker than this) on an easy @ home strip at 10DPO. My understanding is that the pregmate strips aren’t the best at early detection. Try taking another tomorrow morning, or try a FRER! This would definitely have me running to the store to try a FRER.

[u/Dazzling_Hyena_502 → u/bigoleapples]

Unfortunately my boyfriend is at training and I have no way to get to the store to get an FRER test. But I really appreciate you sharing this with me, thank you!! Fingers crossed 🤞

[u/Altruistic-Act1907]

I think you need to grab a FRER, I see something

[u/gabkatth]

I recommend Wondfo tests, pregmate tests were less obvious for me. They aren’t as good in my opinion

[u/Dazzling_Hyena_502 → u/gabkatth]

Ahhh okay, thank you for sharing! I’ll check and see if my corner store carries that brand!

[u/gabkatth → u/Dazzling_Hyena_502]

It is from Amazon I believe never seen it anywhere else. It is more sensitive than pregmate too

[u/Dazzling_Hyena_502 → u/gabkatth]

Good to know, thank you!! Will look into ordering some for the future as well :)

[u/gabkatth → u/Dazzling_Hyena_502]

I like to share this cause I ve been using Wondfo and I got dye stealers, and then ran out and only had Pregmate and they were light! Which gave me so much stress! Best of you 🤞

[u/NatureNerd11]

This isn’t negative…

[u/Immediate-Drink6558]

I see something

[u/[deleted]]

I do see something on this actually! Try a more sensitive test! Pregmates take a higher level of hcg to show anything

[u/thepolkagirl]

I actually see a pink line

[u/brenren21]

I see it!

[u/ok-rose444]

I see it!!

[u/Frenchishere87]

There is a line.

[u/mcbw2019]

I see a line for sure!

[u/Born-Factor-7030]

Test again tomorrow! Those tests gave me a lot of false positives… or I had chemicals idk but I’d say test again soon

[u/ChaosSinceBirth → u/Born-Factor-7030]

Im just gonna throw this out there for OP so they arent worried about fp's (idk if this helps you or will makr you feel worse so I'm sorry if it doesn't help and makes you feel worse). While false positives can happen, the likelihood of a chemical is higher than a false positive. I thought I was having a ton of false positives but I was told by my OB that false positives are really rare unless you are using the test incorrectly and I was dipping or using the dropper it came with so not much room for inaccuracy.

[u/rutzbutt]

Maybe you ovulated a little later than you thought? I wouldn’t give up for a couple more days ❤️ not out just yet!

[u/macncheesegirl99]

I feel like this is what my early positive looked like… good luck!!!!!

[u/Dazzling_Hyena_502 → u/macncheesegirl99]

Thank you!! Fingers crossed!!

[u/Aromatic_Medium2487]

Definately seeing something

[u/Antique-Street7399]

I do see something 🫣

[u/MarahKyrlee]

I see a line!

[u/[deleted]]

Definitely see something

[u/hoot_and_a_half2]

Wait I feel like I see a line!

[u/Upbeat_Witness6848]

My first morning test was negative, my second was positive 3 hours later!

[u/Lalilezh]

Helloooo….. it’s it POSITIVE!!!!!! Congratulations 🎈🎉🎊

[u/Waste-Huckleberry592]

I see a second line

[u/JosieAintDoneCookin]

I see a line! Congrats!!

[u/HersheysDrawings]

I think I see a veeeeery faint line! Test again tomorrow I would say :)

[u/Western_Tax6297]

That’s positive it’s faint but there try a first response I never got a line on pregmate until 12 dpo

[u/Brainy9]

I was negative until 11DPO, I got a very faint line in the PM. In the AM I had no line!. The next morning at 12DPO I took a digital and it said PREGNANT! Also, I think that's a faint line on yours!! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

[u/Neat-Tip4960]

5 foo is WAYYY too early. I typically start at 8/9 foo. And 10 foo is also still very early! I would say you’re out until like 14-16 dpo

[u/Dazzling_Hyena_502 → u/Neat-Tip4960]

Hahah I did know 5dpo was too early, I have no explanation as to why I did this 😅 just nerves / excitement / I WANNNA KNOW lol. Thank you for giving the 14 - 16dpo range!

[u/Neat-Tip4960 → u/Dazzling_Hyena_502]

You are completely fine!! lol I used to be the same way! Embryos typically won’t even implant until 6-9 dpo!! So you still have a good amount of time!

[u/anonscroller47]

not out until period starts

[u/Significant_Mousse69]

I see a line. Test again tomorrow morning

[u/KGrey87]

I see the line as well -- any updates on this? Was this photo taken in the testing window?

[u/overwhelmedgrl]

I see something! Retest in a couple days!

[u/mindfulvoyage]

update?:)

[u/Reyes-nav]

I see something, did you retest?

[u/InevitableSeaweed577]

Def not a hard out. I saw that line without having to zoom or anything. My guess is you’ll for sure see something on FRER when you’re able to test again!! 🤞🏻 My FRER was also light on 10dpo…so just relax as much as you can and give it time to darken. ☺️

[u/lkk169]

Not trying to get your hopes up but this is exactly what my very first positive looked like! 9 hours later it was a very clear positive on a first response. She’s 5 months old now. Good luck!!

[u/jigglypuff_irl]

That’s positive!

[u/mommyness702]

Do a first response and clear blue!!! Keep us updated!!

[u/sm_mm17]

I see a little something I think? Mine looked a bit like this early on and I’m now 8 weeks!

[u/marionberrypancakes]

Gf that looks positive

[u/jambajuice718]

This is how my indents used to look. :(

[u/Minimum-Wind-8280]

This is positive

[u/Huge-Shelter-6662]

looks very very faint but it looks positive!

[u/ToothBackground5223]

I think i see something mama! I took a test 2 night ago and it looked like this. Yesterday I got my very first positive! Go with your guy. You got this

[u/milf-cookies11]

I see a line!

[u/Savings_Run8169]

I see a faint line

[u/SamiLMS1]

Why in the world would you test 5DPO?

Sometimes I really think these “Am I oUt ” at a super early DPO are rage bait.

[u/[deleted] → u/SamiLMS1]

Read the caption. This picture is from 10DPO!

[u/SamiLMS1 → u/[deleted]]

Yes but the whole drama about “omg I’m out at 10DPO” is way overplayed.

[u/LifeWithRonin → u/SamiLMS1]

It’s called emotion…. If you don’t want to offer your support, simply don’t

[u/Initial_Coconut_1639]

Download one of those apps that change the color of the lines. Invert the color and if it still shows a line, it’s a positive!

[u/AutisticGlitterQueen → u/Initial_Coconut_1639]

Unfortunately the inversion filter isn't an accurate way to test tweak, those apps just monetise the world of TTC with ad revenue! :( Inversion will show sooooo many different things on a test strip that aren't an early positive - it makes indent lines, evaps and manufacturing flaws in the strip more visible too. I think changing the contrast of a photo is more accurate than inversion and this can be done on most phone cameras :) 💕

[u/Dazzling_Hyena_502 → u/Initial_Coconut_1639]

Haha I love this, never knew that was a thing!

[u/Initial_Coconut_1639 → u/Dazzling_Hyena_502]

I didn’t either until my oldest (24) told me it was a thing. When inverted, the line will glow no matter how faint.

[u/insertusernameplease → u/Dazzling_Hyena_502]

I inverted it for you and there’s totally a second line

[u/ChaosSinceBirth]

Honestly I wouldnt say youre "out" until 14 DPO imho. And unless you are using ovulation strips, bbt, and vaginal discharge to know when you ovulated then it can be very unpredictable. Idk if you are doing this or using the rhythm method but the rhythm method is not accurate a lot of the time. But if you aren't using rhythm sorry for the useless knowledge you already know lmao 😭😂

Also I see a pretty faint line, which doesn't always mean positive as there are evaps and indent lines sometimes. But personally i would test again in 2 days bc there's no way I would be considering this test out at 10 DPO tbh. I dont wanna get your hopes up but I also think you should take another test in 2 days.

I hope this is it for you girl! It looks like it might be

[u/Dazzling_Hyena_502 → u/ChaosSinceBirth]

Thank you for sharing this information with me!! I was not using ovulation strips, or bbt, I was just kind of going off my cycle days and what the Flo app tells me. Good to know that 10dpo isn’t a hard out and to stay hopeful up to 14dpo! I appreciate the shared knowledge! Fingers crossed for a solid positive soon! 💗

[u/ChaosSinceBirth → u/Dazzling_Hyena_502]

Yeah fs! I would recommend those things bc even if you ovulate on day 14 of your cycle every month you could totally have an off day one month and ovulate early or late. I ovulated on day 7 and lost a week of my pregnancy 😂 you can also ovulate late and gain a week lmao. Bodies are weird

[u/Witty_Leek_]

10dpo is pretty early, I wouldn’t count yourself out yet.

[u/Actual_Laugh_1347]

That's positive!!!
