FRER FAINT line - ADVICE NEEDED!!!

63 replies

cbmb12 · 23/12/2013 19:18

I POAS this morning (clearblue digital with conception date) and it said not pregnant, but I am addicted to poas....so, this evening did an FRER and I had a very (barely visible) second pink line. Husband saw it too and confirmed that I wasn't mad about the second line.
AF due on 25th....
Does that sound like a positive and what are the chances of false positives??

We're the FRER different batches? If so the lines will be different colours!

A line is a line - enjoy your amazing Christmas present!! Thanks

The line has veeeeeerrrryyy pale pink colour and came up within the 3-5 window each time.
But because it is every so slightly lighter this morning (i scrutinised them a lot) it makes me terrified about early miscarriage!

Assuming the line has colour (Pink?) you are most definitely upduffed for christmasSmile. As others q have said the clearblues dont pick up the hormones as early. i got a bfp
Just before last christmas

Not necessarily everyone has different amounts of hcg so all is probably fine! How faint is it? Post a pic?

Did test with fmu....the line is still just as faint...only just visible... (but there within 3 mins)
CB digi still saying 'not pregnant'

AFdue tomorrow or Thurs - surely line should be stronger now? V.confused.

I think they are the same thing unless am interpreting it all wrong!

OP posts:
Feelingfatty · 23/12/2013 22:56

I'm sure I'm wrong though!

Feelingfatty · 23/12/2013 22:55

Give me a boost I thought there was a difference...i know doctors who say chemical pregnancy...didn't realise wasn't a correct phrase!!

Oh, I know it isn't a 'false pregnancy', it just seems to be the accepted term for early miscarriage.... but I agree, it is a weird way of saying it!

OP posts:
givemeaboost · 23/12/2013 22:40

yuk I wish people wouldn't use the phrase chemical pregnancy, it is an early miscarriage, not a false pregnancy.
Sounds hopeful though, fx for a darker line in the morning!

Let's pray it isn't evap, and that there is no nasty chemical pregnancy business....EEK! I'll let you all know what my test in the morning says!

Thanks Feelingfatty! I'm going stir crazy. Its been a hell of a year and so am finding remaining calm and patient nigh on impossible.!!

OP posts:
Feelingfatty · 23/12/2013 21:52

Probably just more diluted im sure it's fine!!

cbmb12 · 23/12/2013 21:31

Thanks! The fact that the second test (done within about 45 mins of first) was even fainter worries me...but maybe that's just cause hcg was more diluted? Damned possible evap lines.... !

Missvaughan85 · 23/12/2013 21:28

My lines were faint from day af was due, gradually got darker. Now I can poas anytime of day and the line is darker than control. Cb digi didn't pick it up until 3 days later so don't worry about that result. Stick with the frer x x
