Are these tests postive?

Do these faint lines on frer mean I'm pregnant?

It would be totally unplanned and I never saw this coming!

@shannonlou97 this is an old thread from last year. I'd recommend starting a new one. You can't add photos for 48 hours after first making an account. After that you add photos using the paperclip underneath the text box when you're making a new post.

Can someone help me, I’m 4 days late and taken these tests which I feel are positive but I don’t know if it’s my mind playing tricks.
How do I add photos?

Oh no, I'm so new to this didn't realize I was not creating my own post. Apologies! How do I do this from scratch then? I ha clicked on the bottom where it says "add post"

@Lilipa you need to make your own thread not post on someone else’s, but yes they look positive

Lilipa · 04/11/2020 09:56

I am 12 DPO and I did a pregnancy test this morning. The attached picture is taken about a minute after I took the test. It has a very faint line on this First Response early pregnancy test but I'm not sure if that means I'm pregnant? I felt implantation two days ago (felt exactly the same symptoms as with my DD during implantation , ie needle pain on lower abdomen) but I'm worried that this test is negative since the line is too fainted? I have had 2 miscarriages after my DD was born so I'm really wanting this second baby! Feels weird that I can't even be happy since this faint line is not making it clear to me.

Definitely positive, congratulations! I just got my BFP about an hour ago, I couldn’t believe my eyes either!
I don’t think you are silly at all for wanting to test again, I’ll be doing the same thing until it fully sinks in!

Thank you. I'm just trying to get my head around it. Haven't told OH yet

Congratulations. Even though it may not seem like a good time, it will give you something to look forward to amongst the darkness.

bluebell94 · 22/03/2020 16:31

That's what my first FRER test looked like, they got darker and darker from then. You could try a clear blue digital but I would wait a few days as they aren't as sensitive as these tests so could give false negative. Congratulations, even though it was a surprise! Hope you're ok with it x

Whatthecrepe · 22/03/2020 15:58

Yes congratulations!!

No need to confirm with a digital, these are more sensitive than a CB so would be a bit backwards

CrazyToast · 22/03/2020 15:45

The test instructions say that two lines are a postive result, no matter how faint the second line is.

JoyfulExpat · 22/03/2020 15:21

I don't know because they are faint lines, so wondering if I should just do a digital to double confirm.

Why do you need another test???
You already have 2 positive ones in front of you [insert head slap]

Crunchymum · 22/03/2020 15:16

You use the withdrawal method and this was a surprise? Shock

JoyfulExpat · 22/03/2020 15:08

Yeah I know, you both are right.

Once it's sunk in I'm sure we will get excited about it. I know my daughters would love a sibling. So do I need to buy another test to confirm or are those 2 enough to go on?

ambereeree · 22/03/2020 15:07

Positive!

Elouera · 22/03/2020 15:06

Congrats- but pull out isn't a 'method' at all when you know how many babies are born that way!!!

grudieabbey · 22/03/2020 15:05

“I wasn't planning on having another right now, but we've been using the pull out method which clearly isn't very effective!”

Hmm

No. It isn’t. Congrats on your pregnancy.

I'm in shock. Do you think I should buy a clear blue digital to confirm? @justabitworried - I haven't told my husband yet, not sure when I will. And with everything going on in the world with the coronavirus the last place I want to be is going to the gp or midwives.

OP posts:
Justabitworried · 22/03/2020 14:59

Definitely positive. My first tests were fainter than this. How are you feeling?

ludothedog · 22/03/2020 14:52

Yip yer up the duff. Congratulatuons!

Oh gosh.

Do you think I should confirm with a clear blue digital? Or is there no need to test again?

I wasn't planning on having another right now, but we've been using the pull out method which clearly isn't very effective!

Congratulations, you're pregnant!
