    hi there - just a question for serial POAS'ers, how dark does your 2nd line get, does it ever get as dark as the "base" line?? I'm using the FRER ones. Today the 2nd line seems a little bit fainter than yesterday's, but I could be wrong, it's very close if not the same?! There is hardly any difference. But the 2nd line has never been as dark as the "base" line. My husband says not to worry, but of course I do, especially after the chem. pregnancy in October last year. Should I even be comparing the three tests from today, yesterday and the day before? I have never done this before... Normally I do a test a day before the blood test is due and then just go for blood test the next day. I have no more pregnancy tests and will now wait till the blood test tomorrow.
    Sorry about the all about me post. Am thinking of you and keeping my fingers crossed for all of you. xxx

    Juniper - welcome and good luck!
    Kbudgie - are you poas'ing today?
    Hi to everyone else!

    no poas here. af had arrived.
    me4ever, I don't know if your doc will get your levels checked but it may be useful to have them. my 2nd line was there but not as dark when I had my bfp in December but I didn't get levels from first bt

    Thanks Kbudgie. I'm sorry about AF, she sucks doesn't she... Now the countdown to the lap starts. It's a bit double isn't it... You don't want them to find anything, just to proof you're healthy... But on the other hand, if they do find something you'd finally know why falling pregnant is so hard... And then you can at least do something about it! I'm glad I had my lap done 1.5 years ago, as they found endo and removed it... Hope all goes well for you! Keep us updated. xxx

    Sneaking it to say congrats to Me4ever My POAS this time was so faint that I could barely see it both days before BT. I thought it was a neg but my BT HCG at 166.8. The m/c I had in July I tested 16 dpo and it was as dark as the second line and came up straight away. My HCG then was 678. Not too sure if that helps. I think each stick is different too even if same brands. Also depends on what time of day, how much you have had to drink. A line is a line. Call today for a BT. My clinic will do them early once I say I have a pos POAS. I think its worse to stess.

    Good luck..sneaks out...

    Cheers Vic, it does help! I did test all three at same time, had less to drink the last test. I know they'd let me do an early test, but I want to give HCG a chance to double as first time I had really low HCG and then m/c. Not that it would make a difference, if it's going to fail, it's going to fail and vice versa of course... And tomorrow I've got the day off, while today I'd have to take the call at work :$ Thanks heaps!
