11dpivi and 10dpiui – HPT Update

13 07 2009

IMG_0639So, I peed on FRER at 6:30 this morning, and unlike yesterday morning, I could start seeing the line almost immediately.  The line is still pretty faint but unlike yesterday, I did not have to tilt the FRER to see it or squint or basically spend 10 minutes finding it, nor did I have to tilt it for the camera in order to see it on “film”.  It seems a bit more filled in too.  Yesterday’s FRER dried darker than it actually was but the one from this morning still definitely looks darker.  So.  I have broken the record for my past two pregnancies – no bleeding after a bfp and a darker hpt!!!  Yippee!!!  That being said, I am a bit more scared today.  I do not feel as nauseous when I woke up.  My mouth still tastes like a copper mine though.  I could use some reassurance about morning sickness coming and going…

The below hpts were from my first IUI in April – I had a bfp 10dpiui and it was darker that night but lighter on 11dpiui.  I think my current 10dpiui is much darker than the one below – my hcg on 10dpiui last time was 6.5.

I am so thrilled for you Lisa! As it is such early days, I wouldn’t worry too much about pregnancy symptoms. I didn’t start to feel anything until about week 6 or 7, and even then the symptoms now vary in intesity on a daily basis. That being said, I can understand that it is an exciting and scary time. We are here for you. x

WOOHOO! Definitely darker! I wouldn’t worry even a teeny bit about “symptoms” at this point. Little guy’s just getting going in there, and you have plenty of time to get sick as a dog. As far as the darkness of the line goes, um, remember when I could barely get an HPT to show positive and my hCG was at nearly 800? I don’t think you have anything to worry about. This early and showing a line at all? You’re golden!

Oh congratulations, sweetie! So very very exciting!

Looking good!!! Congrats! Ditto what Sprog said – put no stock in symptoms at this point. My m/s was not steady until almost 8w and now it still comes and goes. When is beta??

Oh ya, that’s darker! Oh and did I say I LOVE the ticker! I agree with the PP that you shouldn’t put too much stock in the symptoms–they wax and wane throughout the 1st tri. Some days I’d have stronger nausea and others I’d have very little, if any. Oh and mine didn’t really start until the 6th week, so I’d say that the fact that you’ve had any is a good sign! I’m crossing my fingers, toes, legs, arms, and anything else I can that you get a strong beta this week! CONGRATS!!!

Wooohoooo! I see it, I see it, I see it! I think you’re officially knocked up! Also, I didn’t have any symptoms in the beginning and the nausea didn’t hit me until about 5.5 or 6 weeks. So excited for you! Congrats!
