Hello, this line came up about 10-15 mins after I took the test but I'm still hesitant to call it a positive Confused

The line had already changed before I took it out if the case. I took it out because there was loads of glare. I haven't booked into the gp yet. I had a lot of ewcm on Wednesday and my boobs have hurt since so I'm not sure if (if these tests are negative) I ovulated late.

have you booked in to the doctors maybe? I hope everything's okay! ❤️

@Izzie1994 once you take FRER out of the packet, they stop being valid as they tend to create that line unfortunately once they react with the air.

I had found this when I used to take mine apart to see if there was anything at all there and it gave me a false positive multiple times x

Do you have a photo?

Izzie1994 · 04/05/2019 11:33

Sorry for all the posts. I've taken another test and there is a second line but only a smidging of the line is pink.....

Flappergirl86 sorry to hear your going through the same thing.when I your period due?

OP posts:
Izzie1994 · 03/05/2019 18:05

Yes, I certainly won't be doing a test before I'm due my period again. When I was pregnant with my daughter I done a frer the day after my period was due and that was also faint so I think my body takes a while to build hcg anyway

So sorry Izzie. I've been to docs this morning as also looks like I'm having a CP. She told me that she went to a fertility conference and the consultant speaking at it wanted them to ban early detection tests like frer as they cause so much unneccesary trauma by letting people know they've miscarried -when it could just have been the disappointment of a period instead. I hope your line comes back and period stays away. You're not out til the red lady sings and all that x

Izzie1994 · 03/05/2019 15:29

Hi, taken one today and looks like just an indent 😢 due period tomorrow but I'm guessing it's a chemical pregnancy

I did another test this morning a FRER one and could 100% see a second pink line that takes me to 4 positives and 1 negative with my period due tomorrow. I’m beginning to think I really am pregnant! 😁 thanks for all your help guys! Xx

Kinsters · 03/05/2019 03:02

Yeah, HCG levels can fluctuate as they rise. Maybe your pee was more dilute? I'd do another FRER in the morning if I were you.

12pinkchairs · 02/05/2019 21:45

Hormone levels are lower in the afternoon.

Izzie1994 · 02/05/2019 16:41

When I've looked closely I can actually see a line so my mind is at ease abit more now xx you can't really see it on here but I'm confident it's there

I've just taken another test and it is negative, any ideas?

OP posts:
Izzie1994 · 02/05/2019 11:16

Thank you guys, I did think it looks too pink to be an evap line but it's just the normal worry I guess

OP posts:
MrsJ1906 · 02/05/2019 10:34

If I could post the photo (which I can’t) I can’t see any evap lines only a really faint vertical line

Kinsters · 02/05/2019 10:31

Maybe they're supposed to be but the blue dye ones are always harder to read as they get worse evaps (imo). FRERs can get indents/evaps but not like the blue dye ones do.

MrsJ1906 · 02/05/2019 10:25

@kinsters are the first response ones not the same as the clear blue 6 day early detection none digital? That’s the line one I’ve been using.

Kinsters · 02/05/2019 10:22

MrsJ1906 hcg levels can fluctuate or maybe your pee with the second digital was more dilute which would explain the result. Why wait till after the weekend though? A test tomorrow should confirm it (especially if you can get a FRER - more reliable than the blue dye ones)

Kinsters · 02/05/2019 10:20

Looks much too pink to be an evap line OP - congratulations!

12pinkchairs · 02/05/2019 10:19

@MrsJ1906 digital tests can be less sensitive than other ones. Try again in a few days, hormone levels should double every 48-72 hours.

MrsJ1906 · 02/05/2019 10:18

Amazing! Congratulations. I guess I’ll just have to suck it up and wait till Monday. Would you phone the docotors Monday if Mother Nature hasn’t visited or repeat the test again first? Sorry for all the questions 🙈

12pinkchairs · 02/05/2019 10:16

This was mine at a similar dpo, I'm now 20+ weeks 😁

MrsJ1906 · 02/05/2019 10:15

This is what I’m thinking my other half says I’ll just have to wait till after the weekend to be sure. But I’m dying to know now 😂. Why do you think the digital one said not pregnant this morning? Could that just be a red herring?
