Long cycles, faint bfp?

[faintlinesquints]

I am never regular with af, usually around 5 weeks but can occasionally have a 6, sometimes 7 week cycle.

Today is cd 46. I took a clear blue test last Thursday and thought it was bfn, but on closer inspection there was the teeniest faintest squinter, I presumed was an evap.

Today I took my second clear blue and as you can see by pic there is a faint line.

I'm wondering because my last AF was the 11th August, if I was pg wouldn't the line be darker by now, or at least shown up last week when I tested? If my long cycles affect when I could have conceived, how would the pregnancy be dated, as going by lmp wouldn't be accurate.

I am really not sure if I'm pregnant or not, and I need to know sooner rather than later as I'm on medication which I'm not sure if safe in pregnancy.

Thanks.

I can see the line! Maybe you ovulated later in the month?

[ChallyCreaks]

That looks positive to me. I would also try a digital and FRER. But I'm a pregnancy test addict. A tentative congratulations from me.

[Ohwhatbliss]

I wouldn't describe that as faint at all! But blue dye tests are unreliable, do a pink test, or a digital!

[Ohwhatbliss]

Oh, and your pregnancy will be dated by a scan, if there's more than a couple of weeks doubt you should push for an early scan

[faintlinesquints]

Eeeek Thanks all.

I think I will get a frer (is that first response yes?) to know one way or another.

The one I took last week was later in the day and today was with fmu so I wonder if that made a difference too.

[faintlinesquints]

Oops that was the wrong smiley face! Meant to be a shock

[faintlinesquints]

I've just taken a frer and it's negative - perhaps as it's later in the day? Thought as they are more sensitive than cb it would have come up anyway if I was pregnant.
Have another frer to do in the morning with fmu, hopefully that will give me a definitive result.

[lookingforthecorkscrew]

Had that exact result on that exact test and most definitely wasn't pregnant. Will only ever do FRERs from now on.

[faintlinesquints]

Oh dear that doesn't sound promising for me then.

[EsmeGNU]

Have you done a frer today @faintlinesquints FX for you.

[faintlinesquints]

Yes, frer was bfn this morning.
I didn't think you could get a false positive, the cb really threw me. Devastated.

Sorry to hear that OP!
I find first response to be the best and most reliable!
Good luck for future cycles xx

[faintlinesquints]

Thank you.

[faintlinesquints]

So.. still no af, and very sore boobs. Is this just wishful thinking or should I re-test in a few days?

[Mumtonoah5]

I would re test just to make sure. Are you usually this late?

[faintlinesquints]

Thanks. I have rarely in the past had a 6-7 week cycle, the last few months it's been pretty regular at 5 weeks. That's me just over 7 weeks since my last af now, I've ordered some more pink dye tests from amazon prime so they will be here tomorrow.
I think I'm more confused as I really do feel different, sore boobs & I keep getting really hot flushes too. Hopefully I'm not just reading into everything too much.

[Mumtonoah5]

Fingers all crossed for you!

[faintlinesquints]

Thanks.

[faintlinesquints]

I am so confused, still no af but another bfn on a cheap pink dye test this morning.
Thing is, I really do feel pregnant, so much so that I actually would have bet money on it!

Will the gps do anything (blood test) if I went to see them or would they just repeat a urine test and tell me it's neg?

[Hotpinkangel19]

I hate those clearblue tests!!!! They should be re called!! 😡

[faintlinesquints]

Totally agree hotpink I always heard that a false positive was rare, but on here the amount of people who have had false positive with clear blue is ridiculous.
Completely plays with people's emotions.
