Strips aren’t more or less reliable, every test just has different sensitivity. I haven’t used pregmate strips, but have used lots of other strip tests. It was like that when I was TTC with my second. I had a faint positive on 10DPO with Clearblue and first response, but didn’t get a faint positive until 13 DPO on the strips. This go around I have Wondflo strips and got the faintessst little shadow of a line yesterday at 8DPO. On their tests it says their sensitivity it 10 MIU/ml 🤷‍♀️

Lonely mom, trying to find her place

Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only one that struggles with this...
I've changed a lot since becoming a mom. I've become closer to God and I'm also very cautious on what my son consumes. For example just because my son wants to eat cookies and candy means he's going to eat it. He also can't watch just anything on tv. It usually has to be educational and for a small amount of time.
Whenever I go out and meet new parents, I find it so difficult to click with them because they are the complete opposite from me, especially when it comes to how they raise their kids. Part of me doesn't even care if we don't have much in common, what's more important is what they allow or don't allow their children to do. Usually if I see their children have bad behavior, I just take my son and leave.
The main reason I do this is because I put a lot of effort on raising my son and I don't say this to offend anyone.
Does anyone else struggle with this? Do you still have hope you will find other parents and children that align with your teachings?

Two lines?

just wanted to try the boots saliva pregnancy test.

I cannot say whether it’s negative or positive!!! i’ve saw similar pictures on Google like mine that were positive from the same test.

Anybody else had a similar experience, or is there somebody who is currently pregnant that can show me what a positive looks like for them from the same test? ☺️🫶🏼

Did I not ovulate? TTC

Hey there! This is my 2nd cycle after my first miscarriage. Had my cycle June 1st and My app said I should be at peak ovulation today but it seems to be getting lighter, does that mean I did not ovulate? Or maybe I am ovulating later In the month? Trying not to get discouraged 🫤 thanks for your help ❤️

Starting to TTC!

Hi guys I just joined this group since I’m trying for baby #2 starting this month! I was wondering if anyone had some tips or tricks on conceiving? I bought some ovulation strips and have been practicing using them. Any advice is much appreciated :) My first baby wasn’t planned and I was young so it’s my first time intentionally trying. Thanks in advance!
