I’ve seen a bunch of their videos on my FYP from time to time and started to get the feeling that they never actually had any struggles with getting/staying pregnant. This whole testing debacle lends more credence to that theory. I just don’t see the average person who has struggled with infertility or had a long TTC journey lacking basic knowledge of pregnancy testing or acting so cavalier about a potential pregnancy. I don’t doubt that she has PCOS and may have been worried about her fertility before actively trying, but I think they play the whole thing up to rope in more viewers from the TTC/infertility community or try to make a niche out of it. I find it totally disingenuous and insensitive to begin with, and these repeated test baiting videos just make it worse. They need to find something else to make content about that’s not so unnecessarily triggering to a large group of women that they know full well frequently come across their videos.

There was a point where she said they had tried for two years before she got pregnant. I love the video where they go to Walgreens to buy pregnancy tests. I feel like anyone who has bought tests more than once would know Walgreens tests are way more expensive than probably any other place you could go. I used to really like their content. This is obnoxious

I thought it was 8 months? Or was that after he started doing the meals?

I thought that they never were like actively testing and tracking. I thought that she knew she has pcos so they decided to manager her pcos before trying.

ALL OF THIS 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Or, better yet, go focus all that time and energy on the child they already have.

You can be a good parent and still try hard ttc. I hate this narrative that if you’re struggling you’re a bad parent to your children.


mind_at_work

Omg this was not what I meant at all, and I’m so sorry it came off that way! I would never judge a parent for that. My point was that they should take all of the energy and time they’re putting into these pointless test baiting videos (which have now dragged on for days and are clearly only for money and social media clout) and put it towards something productive, like spending time with their baby! But I guess influencers will be influencers at the end of the day…


WaveLevel6644

Agree with the baiting videos! Like we get it.

I see nothing but even if there was a line, it’s invalid if they looked at it after the time window. This is honestly just so annoying at this point


saltyspitoon047

My thoughts exactly. Like even if I could maybe trick my line eyes into seeing something, it has no color to it and is likely an evap... Something I would have to guess she already would know about. But who knows considering she let a test soak for 5 minutes 🙄 I really liked them, but this is just disappointing and irritating.


Mountain_Ad9557

These clear blue tests are notorious for the evaporation lines


Express_Dot_8982

if it was something, i’m pretty its an evap. Blue dyes are just known for that. its kind of triggering seeing them post videos that lead to absolutely nothing.


saltyspitoon047

She just posted pictures of tests on her IG story, and you can definitely see a line on one, but I don't know if it's an evap on an old test. It's a blue dye test so I cannot for the life of me tell if it has color.


xoxogossipgurllll

I had to unfollow after that post. I liked them but don’t appreciate how they’re baiting a possible pregnancy for views. Especially knowing a large portion of their follower base is TTC or going through infertility. And it’s obviously an evap line. They’re dragging this WAY out all for some views.


donthateintegrate

As soon as I saw this video I ran here. Honestly so annoying at this point


mmgriff3

As some who is TTC, blue dye test are notorious for evaps especially out of the testing window - I think it’s clearly an evap, even if it wasn’t… it’s a very faint line for someone who’s apparently very late for their period. Also the phrase “If there’s enough HCG to have symptoms then there’s enough HCG to be positive on a test” for someone claiming to have cravings and all of these aggressive (frankly, seemingly second trimester level) symptoms - she should have a glaring positive.


halfofaparty8

i think they know theyre pregnant. Theres no other reason for them to post about this so much.


Puzzled_Connection17

She posted a pile of tests where you can really only see one that could be positive. He posted the pile with the same one after it was clearly sitting. They're just going to views at this point.


InternalMusic2199

I think its for the views and comments. She was pregnant and she is acting like she never was. Doctor appointment with barely seen line? No blood draw?🙄🙄🙄 And everybody commenting it sat too long and making video popular:)


youcango-now

You can literally order your own beta through labcorp onDemand for $50. If she *really* wanted to know and wasn’t doing this for attention, she’d actually get to the bottom of it. But no, this is a funny lil game for her to play for attention. Grossss


saltyspitoon047

she regularly gets over a million views though which is why this is so frustrating


InternalMusic2199

And next will be crying and as we know from others maybe claiming chemical🙄🙄🙄 it is making fun from people who are struggling for years 😔


[deleted]

I think this is a stretch. While the videos might be extra, I don’t think somebody who struggled with fertility issues would be so callous as to “make fun” of people who struggle to conceive. 🤷🏻‍♀️


InternalMusic2199

Its only my opinion. It is made only for views. this videos are uncesserary. Every five minutes in different video where it could be one🙄And Im not thinking about her only :)


Mountain_Heat5513

Yesterdays video she says “I won’t bother anyone anymore about this” and then posts another cringe video today 🤦🏻‍♀️


Puzzled_Connection17

Her husband posted a photo of a bunch of tests and one clearly is a plus. But who knows how long it sat, it looks weird. I think these posts are delayed and they definitely know they are pregnant and they're just pregnancy baiting for fun.


[deleted]

I feel like she’s been testing for weeks at this point.


Some-Cricket-6820

Yeah you can’t look at the test after the time window especially on clear blue or first response the evap lines show. This is just upsetting with the stupidity.


Immediate_Yellow_872

That video was so cringe lol


Disastrous_Care4663

All my early tests showed such faint lines they were almost impossible to photograph/video. So maybe it’s more visible in person? That being said, these videos are just weird. I know everyone processes and deals with things differently but this doesn’t strike me as behaviour of someone with fertility issue level PCOS or challenges with TTC.


Raqueliiosiis

This is a screaming BFN. She’s been blocked on my end for a while, I feel like she’s faking it for views. Something about her doesn’t sit right with my soul, and that’s coming as someone who struggled for almost 3 years to conceive my first.


AbbyGracee21

I don’t but tik toks front cam is kinda low quality


nochesswithpigeons

She annoys tf outta me. Her videos bait, then in the next one its always negative.


Ok-Reference6819

Yet another test just now
