Im guessing that would be positive. Can you look online at the same test, or get down to boots and have a look at the box.
If not go and buy a cheapy from asda or similar

you need a cross in one window and a line in the other to show the test has worked

Google seems to suggest you need a cross too.

just read on line same as rubyslippers. A cross in 1st box, then a line to show test has worked properly in 2nd box = positive

Here is what a negative on a +/- test looks like. Scroll down for different images.

Glad it's what you wanted to hear. Those +/- ones get bad reviews as they're so difficult to interpret, especially as most line tests work on a 'two lines is positive' basis. They also give false positives which are rare but occur mainly in these kinds of tests.

Thanks showofhands, I'm actually more confused now as it looks different from the boots one on their site, think I bought this as part of a multipack.... I'll just have to wait for DH to run to shops, I really DO NOT want to be pregnant again but I feel like shit and my wee smells funny...., sorry, TMi perhaps...

Could you have a UTI?
