Hi everyone,

This is my first post on Mumsnet, and my hands are shaking so please excuse any rambles!

I came off the pill at the end of September as my fiancé and I wanted to try for a baby. I had a withdrawal bleed on the week beginning the 26th and then had my first 'proper' bleed 28 days after.

I'm due on tomorrow and a mixture of excitement and impatience got the better of me this evening after feeling 'different' for the last few days. I've had a metallic taste in my mouth, tender breasts, and have been very emotional, although I know this could be all in my head/pms symptoms.

Can anyone please tell me if they can see the faint line going down through the middle? Could it really be???

Please help! Is this a positive?!

I would take one first thing in the morning it should be more concentrated and hopefully give you a better line

Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for all your replies! I have literally spent the last hour running from room to room and holding the test under different lights to see if it disappears Shock

I'm going to try and not to think about it too much for a few days and test again - or go to Boots tomorrow and bulk buy their whole test range Grin

I'll post again in a couple of days, with a hopefully darker line! Thank you all so much xxx

Congratulations. Yes positive.
I have read a lot on here tho about blue tests not being as clear as pink tests. I highly recommend the superdrug own brand ones, not expensive but very clear.
Don't do a digital one just yet because they're not particularly sensitive.

It's clear as day, you're pregnant Smile

A first response pink dye will give you a clearer result if you want the reassurance

Hi again everyone,

Just a quick update.

I bought a twin pack digital test yesterday and got a 'pregnant 1-2'

I did the other one this morning as I couldn't quite believe it, and got a 'not pregnant' - Frazzled I wish I'd listened to you!

I know I'm being completely obsessive about it all and need to calm down Confused

I'm going to leave it for a few days and try again as there's still no sign of my period although I've had cramps for a few days.

It could be that your urine was stronger with the first test, or it could be a chemical pregnancy. Only way to know is to wait a few days and test again.

Not to be this time, AF arrived with a vengeance yesterday.

No more early tests for me! Hmm
