HPT...........am I seeing things!!!!!! LOL

OKIDOKI!  So these days I haven't been myself!  I have been OBSESSED w/my 2ww which feels more like a 22ww!
Anywayz,  so yesterday I for sure had a light blue second line (walmart FREP) FOR SURE, & that would have been 10/11DPO...So I test this morning FMU & only one line :(  K, so then I tell myself I am NOT buying ANYMORE!  Of course I do......
This time I get the real deal FREP!  So I SWEAR SWEAR I see a "shadow" right where the 2nd line would be!  BUT, I have to put it up to the light & slightly tilt it! LOL  PLEASE tell me you guys do this too!!!! ha ha ha!  I am a NUT!  Am I TRYING to convince myself I see something?  I do know that w/my last pregnancy BFP I had good HCG numbers (250 16DPO)  & I had tested @ night 11DPO saw a type of shadow, but then @ 12DPO I for sure got my 2nd pink line.
So am I alone in my standing on the bathrooms stepping stool to put the HPT up against the light bulb!?!?!?!?!?!  Or am I LOOOOOOSING it??????? :)
BTW my trigger was out for sure by my 9th day.

LOL, I've done the same thing!!  Very similar to weighing myself on a scale...you know, if know I'm creeping up several points, I tilt the scale just so...  

Good luck!

So we are in the same boat! I am 10 dpo on my 2nd IUI attempt and thought why not give an HPT a try. I can imagine the line so clearly that I'm convinced there was a shadow but at the same time trying to keep my expectations in check. I go for bloodwork on the 23rd but am sure I will do another HPT before then. Hang in there and sending baby dust to you and whiteswan72!

Lol! Hi there I think as I mentioned to you earlier we are in the same situation, 2 days ago I tested and both first response and the cheap brand came out negative. But same like you I can't help it so I tested and instantly I have a very distinguish positive!! I can't believe my eyes! But I tried not to get too excited until I get a positive result from BW. Haha I did the same 2 days I ago I tried different angle from the light to see any positive line, but nope no matter how I flip it's still negative. Crossing my fingers and toes for for you and SSBD!!! We gonna be a March buddy!
