Help with pregnancy test

My period is 5 days late, this has not happened or at least 3/4 years, I am very regular.

So I took a pregnancy test which I have attached on here - would you say this is positive?

I thought it was but have took two difference brand of digital tests and both say not pregnant, I took a clearblue digital and clear and simple (from B&M) digital.

My head is a mess at the moment not knowing if this looks positive or if I am seeing things

Thank you

That looks very positive to me.

I would say that is a positive, if you looked at it in the time frame.

Digital are a lot less sensitive that these ones; it could be you are very early on and not enough pregnancy hormone ( HCG) is being produced. I would retest in a few days.

Thank you, that was within 3/5 minutes. I just feel like I don't want to get too excited. I have took two of those tests and had the same result with the faint line

Thank you, I have ordered another 2 digital tests so think will try again at the weekend. It is just the longest wait of uncertainty and wanted to see what others thought

Don’t waste your money on digital tests. Cheaper ones are more sensitive. Wait a few days and then do another one.

I have read how people have had the digital tests show 'not pregnant' when they are actually pregnant but I do not want to build my hopes up too much

I took another test this morning with a much stronger line. I know it is early days but I could not be happier. Thank you for all your advice yesterday
