Curious about line on test

So, I got a really really faint positive on a frer this morning and this afternoon I got curious so decided to use a cheap strip test, not really expecting anything. Anyway, I didn't see anything come up within a few mins and decided to leave it. Probably 10 or so mins later I decided to have another look while I was there and I noticed a really faint line which had colour. Obviously I know the test is invalid if nothing in the time scale but why would the line have colour? (Or is it irrelevant?) xxx

Thanks guys. Think I'll be due early feb but I haven't confirmed anything with doc yet. I'll call on Tues to make an appointment when they're open again. I bet that'll make it feel real x

Just realised you wanted digital, still amazon! £9 odd for 2.

sexnotgender · 26/05/2018 18:23

I bought mine on amazon too, think I paid £7 or so for 2 FRER. Boots/Superdrug etc. Are ridiculously expensive.

I know tests are invalid after the allowed time frame but I found with the cheap tests they do take longer to give a positive than it says on the box. With my fourth pregnancy I found on a cheapy at 10dpo, it came up slowly and was so faint but a frer confirmed it 2 days later. Good luck x

@PickettBowtruckles - agree. I did both this morning and got a pretty decent line on frer but practically nothing on the other x

Please remember FRERs are more sensitive than an internet cheapy stick. These tests were dipped in the same urine and you can see the massive difference, if you got a BFP on a FRER I’d trust that :)
