Faint line after the test time

Took a test this afternoon 9DPO - can anyone see the second line? It is pink in colour but it didn't really appear until around the 5 minute mark (it's a FRER and it says to read it at 3 minutes) we've been trying for 2 years and this is our second round of clomid. I have never seen any second line at all before. Please help!

@Trying2b I'm really sorry to hear that 💕 my gut tells me that's what's happened here too, surely it would have remained a positive, especially with FMU. After 2 years of heartache this is just so cruel 😞

@LaurenN23 I had a week of faint positives on FRER test, just like yours. Unfortunately they never got any darker and resulted in a chemical pregnancy, as AF just arrived as normal. I'm very cautious about taking early tests before AF due date. Sorry for your disappointment, it's heartbreaking x

Yes please do keep us updated! Over the moon for you

That looks like my first line !! 5 mins is a good time. It's past 10 mins if something appears that you wouldn't pay any attention to it!

Fingers crossed. Deffo let us know tomorrow or maybe Monday instead xx

muddypuddles12 · 25/01/2020 17:55

That is 99.99999999% a line!!!!!!

RedPandaFluff · 25/01/2020 17:53

Oh I think that's a line! Looks like mine at 4 days after a 5 day old embryo was transferred (IVF) which is the equivalent of 9dpo!

Fingers crossed - be sure to keep us updated, there's nothing better than seeing that line get darker and darker! Good luck!

Thank you everyone. Definitely not getting excited yet - I'm hoping and praying that tomorrow morning there is still a line on a new test and that is shows up in the time limit!

@PurpleRayne89 thank you, it is a FRER test and I ovulated 9 days ago. Keeping everything crossed 🤞🏻 x

I can see it. Congratulations

Anny27 · 25/01/2020 17:22

I think that's positive lovely :) they say read at 3 minutes but read within 10 minutes so definitley within the limit :)

PurpleRayne89 · 25/01/2020 17:21

@LaurenN23 hello love. That’s definitely a line so congratulations. How many days post ovulation are you? It should begin to get darker over the next couple of days also.

If that’s a first response, one link due tests are more reliable and two they are not known to provide fake positives so it’s 100% a + test.

switcharoo · 25/01/2020 17:21

I can def see a line and looks pink! I've just my bfp last week and had faint lines like this that I could only really see after the time limit, fingers crossed it looks promising!
