I have been trying for a baby for around 5 months and did this test this morning, am I seeing things after staring at these for so long every month !? My period is due tomorrow so may be too early to even say... Thanks in advance

Hi binky! That's a faint positive test, no need to be concerned yet, I'd give it another day or two and test again! I can see your lines even without zooming in! Eeeek.... Hope this is your bfp!
I had a chemical last August but fell pregnant again the following month (they say you are more fertile after a chemical or early loss) so, not to worry you, as there is no reason to think this is a chemical as its still very early, but just wanted to let you know that if it was a chemical, it wouldn't be the end of your journey, as sad as a chemical is, there is still hope.
With this pregnancy my lines stayed faint like yours for a good 2 or three days before slowly getting darker, so please don't worry at this stage. Good luck to you!

They all look positive to me

Get a FRER from Boots, they're by far the best in my experience

I did a digital one on the same day I did that CB test and was negative. Also did with FMU following day and negative. And I was pregnant and my dates were correct. As I said I'm 27 weeks pregnant.

I would wait a couple or few days so you don't waste money. I did tons of tests( I was in disbelief I'm pregnant) and I can say IC were extremely faint even days later, Wilkos were bad too, Sainsbury were kind of ok, but not super dark, freedom one from Asda was nicely going darker, FRER were brilliant. I was nicely surprised by this CB test, also bought from coop as the only one they had. I re did it at almost 7 weeks( before early scan) to see if I was still pregnant and it got soo dark and immediately.

It was due yesterday and no sign yet, fingers crossed ! Sorry if TMI but I have been getting a lot of watery discharge and I feel bloated and having random pains/cramps in my back and abdomen , is that anything relevant ? Thanks again

That’s promising if that’s what yours looked like, what are people’s opinions on digital ones ? My mum suggested one so no need for interpretation , I’d wait till sat morning though I think ...

Oh I didn't realise you hadn't missed your period yet! In that case I don't think the faintness is really an issue to worry about, it's still very early. Fingers crossed for tomorrow's tests!

R2D2abc · 30/01/2020 12:02

I forgot to mention was lunchtime when I did it, my FMU were way less visible.

R2D2abc · 30/01/2020 12:02

OP, this is my test on missed period. Looks like yours. I'm 27 weeks now.

Could this be positive ?

@binky89 I can see lines on the clear blue and your strips. I’d get a FRER, I had a real squinted in IC but very clear bfp on FRER. Fingers crossed for you 🤞

Ovulation was 14th Jan according to the app I use but I guess it could have been later than that. My periods are like clockwork and was due yesterday. The clear blue test isn’t an early one , it says 25mlu on the leaflet and says “99% accurate from the day of missed period” which is technically today. I did have an early positive once in September, about 3 days before period, but then when I tested again the next day, absolutely nothing and then had a really heavy painful period so not sure if that was just a bad test or if it was maybe really early miscarriage. I need to go to and get a more sensitive one I think after work and try again in the next couple of days. It’s just horrible not knowing for sure, but then again, I shouldn’t be so impatient ! Thanks for all of the replies, it is really helpful. I have no idea what I’m doing as only been trying for 5/6 months. I’m 31 and I know that’s not old but I can’t help but think I should have started trying a lot longer ago 😩

How many DPO are you? My BFP at 9dpo wouldn’t even show on a camera and I can see yours. Also, I may be wrong but I don’t think that’s an early test. My CB earlies look like this. That test was taken at 10dpo and now I’m 7 weeks today.

Could this be positive ?
allthesharks · 30/01/2020 06:54

I can see lines on all of them. You said you got that clearblue from the co-op. Ask them if they have any of their own brand tests. I got a decent line on that test quite early on.

Photo attached to show the comparison to the FRER taken the same day.

Could this be positive ?
squee123 · 30/01/2020 06:47

I think it looks like a faint positive too. There's a definite line. Fingers crossed it darkens up for you. Could you have ovulated later than expected?

That’s what I was worried about :-( I’ll try and leave it a few days and see what happens, I’m so rubbish and waiting and seeing haha , thanks for the replies

I disagree with PP, I think they're positive but they are quite faint so I would worry about a chemical. As hard as it is, leave it 2 days and try again. Flowers

Not Going

whiskeyandice · 30/01/2020 06:17

It's going but it's there. There's definitely a cross. Wouldn't that make it positive??

Shev1996 · 30/01/2020 05:51

Sorry but that’s negative, as was the first one :(

The only one in the co op was clear blue, still very faint and today is the first day of my missed period. I’m starting to have doubts now :-(

Could this be positive ?
