I'm going to just wait it out and see how it goes. If I have no AF by Friday I will test again ,

If you waited 30mins-1hr for the lines to come up they are most likely evaps. Only look at the test within the right amount of time or you will drive yourself mad. I hope you get the result you want.

This must be costing you a fortune. In the nicest possible way, step away from the tests, leave it a few days and see if AF turns up. Then you can test again when the results are less likely to be so marginal. Good luck!

I remember testing around 6 ish days before AF. The test was 'negative' initially and I dumped it in the bin and forgot about it for all of, oooh, 20 minutes. Grin Anyway I pulled it from the bin and saw the faintest of the faintest second line. I stared at it thinking I have Line Eyes but it was there. Another test two days later came up absolutley positive. Hang in there and test again in two days chick.
The stringy mucus is misleading. I used to get it before my period. I also got it with my BFP, however, I noticed it when I was around 9 ish weeks onwards and not in the immediate new days of a BFP.

any faint positive is positive.
It doesn't matter if a second test doesn't show it, that just means that the hormones were a but lower at that point.

positive is positive. A faint positive isn't a maybe, it is a positive.

Any faint positive within the time and you are pregnant!

I know of people who were in the same boat as myself and they were indeed pregnant. But if that were the case, would all tests come up neg and not just 2?

ive never known a test say wait for any more than 10 mins to read.Confused

Junosmum · 27/09/2015 22:26

Most tests say read within 10minutes. A line after that could be an evaporation line.

gabrielle1201 · 27/09/2015 22:08

I waited the 30 minutes seen the line but left it a while and it was still there if even brighter

What do you mean you waited an hour? If the second line didn't come up in the time it says on the instructions then it doesn't count!

Ah okay but the results I had were only faint so will she take this as a positive result? X

You need to get referred to the midwife around 8 week. Unless you don't want to continue with the pregnancy? The dr will be pretty useless, and it's unlikely they'll test you since you've had positives at home.

If you want to continue with the pregnancy you need to start taking folic acid.

That's a positive- exactly what I had when I tested with DS.

Junosmum · 27/09/2015 12:24

Honestly, I stopped testing after I got a tiny tiny positive on a tesco test. I was pregnant, that was it. The day after I took a clear blue digital as hubby didn't quite believe it - it took ages and ages to come up with 'pregnant' but it did. I haven't taken a test since. I never got a dark line, I knew I was pregnant and that was enough.

From what I can see on those tests, you are pregnant. If your period turns up then it was a chemical pregnancy. If it doesn't turn up then you are still pregnant. Congratulations.

FYI - clear blue none digital are less sensitive than the tesco or first response ones, so no wonder you got a negative on them. The First response ones are sensitive to 10mmul, tesco 20 mmul (I think), clear blue digital 25mmul and clear blue none digital 50mmul.
