line on superdrug early pregnancy test

Hi I think AF is due tomorrow but took a superdrug test today as have been feeling sick on and off all day. (I know this could be completely unrelated) the instructions said to read the test within 3 minutes but after 4ish minutes a faint line started to appear. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this? It was dipped for the correct amount of time ect and this didn't happen to the one I took 2 days ago (same brand). Should I just dismiss it? I only have 2 digital tests left now , which aren't as sensitive and no chance of getting any more for a few days. I'll try and attach some pictures.

I would say positive too! Il attach mine for you to see as mine were same brand. Mine also took about 4 minutes to appear at 10dpo. See my 11dpo and 13dpo to show how quickly they got darker. I think you would probably get a positive on a digital tomorrow, hcg increases quite quickly. I'm nearly 18 weeks now. I'm going to say a tentative congratulations! X

Test results must be read within 5 minutes. A negative result which may change to positive after 5 minutes is not an accurate reading.

I guess I'll just have to wait a few more days to know for sure. Has anyone had a positive after the time limit and not been pregnant?

Clear positive! Your line is much darker than mine was. Congratulations Flowers

That's a positive. I thought the instructions said read after 3 mins but not beyond 10

But the instructions say not to take any notice of it if it's after 3 mins. So confused! I know I'll just have to wait a few days and test again by it just seems soooo long!

Don't dismiss it, a similar thing happened to me! Tested a couple of days before AF was due and it looked negative (Tesco test). Looked again a few hours later and there was a very faint line, the result of which is currently trying to crawl into the kitchen because he thinks I can't see him...

Good luck OP!
