I can see a really faint line, can you?

Hi!

I'm going slightly insane.

Been TTC for 19 months, nasty ectopic 11 months ago. Would love to be pregnant. Recently had fertility screenings and both came back fine.

Was due AF yesterday so thought I would try a test, only had ovulation sticks at home, it came out with a line...rushed to buy a hcg test and got what we hope is a very, very faint line also. I've taken the strip out of the container to squint at.

Just been out again to buy a clear blue digital to double check, but this says 'not pregnant'. So I guess I'm not?!

I feel crampy and confused. Can anyone else see a line, and if so what else could it be if not a positive?

So confused and desperate to know. I'm going to try again in the morning xx

Thank you for reading.

I can see a line on both! Congratulations and hope this is a healthy pregnancy. I would only do a digital at about 5 weeks as I've heard they aren't sensitive at all.

Superdrug test done. Pic attached.

Quietly hopefull and excited. Spoke to GP for advice, they said to keep testing as any hcg doubles every 48 hours.

Thank you all so much! I daren't be too excited just yet.
I will pop to Superdrug tomorrow.

I've been advised that if I get pregnant again I would need close monitoring and early scans due to the complications I had last year, with ectopic.

Everything crossed Smile

I see a line congratulations! Grab a superdrug own brand they are very sensitive. Flowers

Abbinob · 19/02/2016 13:18

Get a first response, i see a line but the blue ones are always awkward

BareBearBum · 19/02/2016 13:15

I see a line too!

MyKingdomForBrie · 19/02/2016 13:14

Ignore the digital, mine said not pregnant for a couple days after a FRER said bfp

SnuffleGruntSnorter · 19/02/2016 13:13

I can also see a line! Try again tomorrow or the day after and it should be darker

BunchOfBobs · 19/02/2016 13:13

Digital are famously known for being less sensitive. Get a FRER or early Superdrugs own, both super sensitive. I do see a line though Smile

spacepoodle · 19/02/2016 13:12

I can definitely see a line. Congratulations! Try again with a Superdrug early detection or a First Response tomorrow.

Good luck Smile

I can see that without even clicking on it

Digital are less sensitive

Frer told me bfp when other tests were saying no

But TBH I think you have a good line already

OddBoots · 19/02/2016 13:09

After what you have been through I understand our worries but I see a line, it isn't the darkest of lines but it is absolutely a line.

meatliqour · 19/02/2016 13:07

I see a faint line!

Do a digital one that says pregnant or not pregnant .... Then you will know Grin

Good luck - keep us posted
