Took a test this morning. Peed and then laid it flat. Instructions were not in English (am abroad) and it turns out you have to hold it vertically. Realised and flipped it round, and all seemed to work ok. V dark control line, and I got a half pink line, half a line!!! Dark pink in a tiny spot, then gets lighter to halfway down the test. Looked at it at lunchtime (5 hrs later) and there was a full but v light pink line there. Took another test and it came up negative Sad. Feel so so so sick now, and have been at this time all week. I want to test again, but know it's pointless until the morning!!! Grrr to the not knowing, am seeing dp tomorrow (as long as the flights are going) and then won't see him again until xmas, so want to know if I have news!!! Grin

Oooooh I shall keep everything crossed for you. Faint line still sounds like a line to me...

But I can't work out if it is an evap or not Grin. I just feel so SURE that I am, I keep feeling things and then thinking "oooh, I remember having that with dd" as opposed to the usual "I wonder if I am pg, do I have x y z?". There is defo pink dye in the line, but I can't work out if it is all the way down, or if it turns grey! Grrr!!! I am going to be so heartbroken if I get a negative now!

Thank you for giving me an ooooh, I don't know whether to tell dp tonight, or wait until I've taken another tomorrow. The quandry!!

I don't think holding it horizontally rather than vertically would magically make a second line appear Confused

Maybe you got a negative second time because it was not First Morning Urine?

I would not give up hope yet!

Yippee. It wasn't appearing horizontally as the pee wasn't progressing, along the stick, he he!
