Hi all, can anyone else see a faint line or am I going mad!? This is a First Response Test taken at midday (after a couple of mugs of tea). AF due Thursday based on my usual 30 day cycle...

Could maybe be an evap line for the both of us but from what I have read this would appear after the urine has dried up

Could the spotting maybe have been from implantation? Sorry I am pretty new to all this I'm sure someone more experienced may be able to advise...

I'm not sure my cycle is all over the place I had my af on 24 of September and spotting on 14-17 of October and that's it 😫

@xblx it came up within about 5 minutes. When is your AF due?

xblx · 05/11/2019 21:08

@Roxy1988 did it show up straight away? Mine looks kinda the same but didn't show for about 20 minutes 😩

@codenameduchess thank you for the advice I know I shouldn't really be taking it apart 😩 I'll try and be patient and wait a few days to re test

inneedofsanity · 05/11/2019 19:55

I fiddled about with the contrast, there is def a second line... 😁👍 Congrats!

Looks like something in your first pic, not sure if there's any colour but it's hard to capture in photos.

FYI taking taking the test apart invalidates the result and will give false positives on FRERs. I've tried it myself on a definite BFN, when taken apart the strip showed as a faint positive. Trust what you see when it's in the case and don't open it up.

@Wanderer1 thanks I will wait until at least the weekend to take another Clear Blue Digital although hoping I won't need to as I have a FRER ready to take on Friday (1st day of missed period)

I see it even in your first pic - deffo a bfp.
Clear blue digital measure at 50 units HCG while FRER are normally 12.5 units. You'll need at least 4-6 days between a FRER weak positive and getting a digital to pick it up based on doubling of hcg every 48 hours

bellebox19 · 05/11/2019 19:23

I think it looks like it may be the start of a BFP. I got a very faint line at 12dpo and then on the day my period was due I got a positive digital. Good luck @Roxy1988 ! X

Fingers crossed! I also took a Clear Blue Digital mid afternoon which said 'Not pregnant' although I've heard these are not very sensitive especially when AF not yet due.

Yep I see it!
