 Topic: Whats the time limit for these tests?
Posted: 13 July 2011 at 7:43pm |
http://www.intimategadgets.com/product/one-step-hcg-urine-ovulation-test--10-pack-36124
they are HCG ones just labelled wrong on the website.
I did one looked at it at 5min and no 2nd line but at 11min exactly it had a very faint 2nd line on it.
Tried getting a pic, its not very clear though and extremely hard to photograph. so i've played with the colours on 1 photo
showeed DP and he said na not happening right now and put the test in the fire - cos thats really how to handle it 
I will do another test tomorrow morning with FMU incase it is just an evap that appeared quite quickly.
it so doesnt help I ate baked beans then very promptly was sick

I have no idea of the time limit... lots of ICs are 5 mins, but that line is pretty easy to see imo, so I'd defo be doing a FR

I used the first response ones and with this bub it was neg at first then a light positive after about 8 mins. Was only 10dpo so pretty early still.
Hope all goes in your favour which ever way you guys want

if its 5min then its about right for being an evap.
so i'll do one tomorrow morning see what it says and discard. and then maybe repeat it in 3 days as AF is sporadic and when it wants to be.
I last had AF/bleeding after I got a very + on an OPK on the 23rd June but didnt buy a preg test as was headbutted in the stomach at work on the 26th and promptly started spotting and bleeding.
my iud hasnt failed me yet in 13months of using it as our only contraception so wouldnt expect it to fail now, but anything is possible.

That line is pretty easy to see... it's even pink. Evaps aren't coloured, are they?

it was a pink line till DP burned it, now its ash.
I re-tested at 10.30 when i got up.
no sign of a line and still no sign now an hour later
so must have been a super fast evap line. DP will be releived. me not so worried either way, I would be TTC now if it wasnt for DP holding us up with his rational thoughts and plans

They come in packs of 3 dont they 
Just a word of caution though, not wanting to burst your bubble but I know if you do get a BFP and you have an IUD in there is a really high chance of diformaties - it happened to my sister which meant she had to go through a termination.
I had this explained to me when i chose the IUD as our form of protection - did they not to you?

Good luck, hope you get the result you want! There are people on here who have had IUD babies and have not had any probs.

Hey try not to stress too much re being preg with IUD in. Ive had a couple of friends get pregnant while on IUDs and thier babies are perfectly normal :) The only thing the doc said to her was there was a 10% chance of miscarriage but Im pretty sure every pregnant woment is given that percentage of miscarrying.
