My temperatur dropped a tiny bit today, but so far no period. As of right now, I've officially missed my period. This is my longest LP since I've been charting.

I took another pregnancy test, and there was the slightest shadow of a line there. It was the same kind of test I took a few days ago, and if you compare the two tests, you can definitely notice a difference. But, I'm not counting it as positive yet, for sure. It is just another good sign. :)

I still have had some light cramping on and off, and lots of CM during the day. I keep thinking my period started, so I run to the bathroom and nothing is there.

I just posted this on the Fertility Friend message boards:

Today my temps stayed up (a slight drop, but it should be ok as long as they don't go much lower!), but this is the longest LP I've ever had. By 13 DPO I've always spotted a few days before, and then starting big-time flow by morning.

So I tested again this morning with an EPT, and when the pink flowed over the indicator area, there was a bright pink line, which didn't happen before. But it faded to almost nothing in a few minutes, and now there is a tiny shadow there.

However, I used an EPT to test a few days ago, and it is white as snow. No shadow, no nothing. You can definitely see a difference between the two.

So, is it fair to compare the two tests from the same box? Could one be an evap line while the other has no evap line?

Obviously, I will test again tomorrow if my temps stay up, but I would like to know your thoughts.

Someone asked if the faint line was pink or grey, and I answered:

Honestly, it is pretty hard to tell. I would say it is more pink, but it is light enough that I'm not totally sure! I looked again though, and it is definitely there. When you compare the two tests, you can see a faded line on one test, and the other there absolutely nothing.

I have been taking some cheap internet tests almost every day, and on those tests I do think I can see an evap line. It is definitely grey, and it is skinnier than the comparison pink line. As if it is the impression of when they added the chemicals to that spot.

This very light line on my EPT test though, is just as wide as the comparison line. It is exactly where it should be if it were positive, it is just so light...

The more I look at it though, the darker it gets, LOL. Perhaps it is my mind wishing it into reality.

Will post more tomorrow. :)
