Very faint tests what gives?

Currently on CD40 averages out to be 34. Took a Tesco test on cd 35&36 - vv faint
Took a internet test with 10miu cycle day 37 vv faint

I then waited until yesterday (cd 40) and got the same v v faint line. Hasn't gotten an stronger or anything.

Went to doctor with the faint tests and he has referred me so am I actually pregnant or are these tests just evap?

Anyone with the same story would be great! Never had this with my first two as I got my BFP before period was due.

Ty!

First image is the first Tesco.
Second is the finternet cheapy.
Third is the Tesco from yesterday.

Good luck Gabrielle, same thing happening over here- very faint on tesco tests (still not sure if they were Evaps but came within 1/2 mins) and bfns since then. This would be DC3 so know what being pregnant feels like and deffo feel it. We weren't trying so I don't think I'd be symptom spotting for no reason! Please update when you know more, good luck.

My hubby chucked in the bin so I can't bloody find it!:( I've on for Tuesday morning coming so I'll post one then, the go took my faint positives as positives so if I asked to get bloods they will more than likely say no cuz I'm now referred.

MrsMamaG yes! Do a FRER or cb! I think that will be good!

Suppose it doesn't hurt to buy 30 urine dip tests online as well... not desperate LOL

Did your gp do a blood test to check your hormone levels to see if they were high?

MrsMamaG2016 · 13/08/2017 11:02

Well I deffo recommend FRER! I'm rubbish at waiting so went for it. This is barely 12hrs after the other test pic I posted - no doubt there! Good luck OP!

Having the same issue here OP! Have always had super dark lines even before period due, am due on today and no sign - but super faint lines. Slightly better on a First Response (not a FRER though) but still not great. Have FRERs for tonight/tomorrow to see if I can get a more convincing line. Guess all we can really do is wait and see though. Good luck!

Use the checker free app! I can see a shadow now but I can't see a line as such! Put in behind something white usually that helps! X

Yours looks much thicker than mine defiantly! I was told to take a cb digital each week until period comes or the appointment x

You would be unlucky to have evaps on the three tests you've taken!

If you have another FRER try it with your first wee of the day tomorrow.

This is my Tesco positive test to compare.

Yeah I'm thinking that too, FRER was clear neg. wish the period would come if there's no pos.

I got a thin evap within a minute or two, I did another one and same thing but it actually disappeared after ten minutes or so. Lots of complaints about it when I typed into google about those cheap supermarket tests. If it's a thick line it's positive if it's skinny then it's not a positive.
