Been feeling a bit odd since 2 weeks ago when we were TTC. My period is due on 15 november. We decided to test yesterday with a Clearblue kit.

It stayed negative but after 10 minutes it turned positive. In the leaflet says, that any results after 10 min should be disregarded.

Have any of you encountered this situation?

Thanks in advance!!

I had a absolutly 100% convincing positive on a clearblue last month after the 10 minutes and wasnt pregnant. Clearblue are notorious for it, i've never had anything like it on any other test apart from Clearblue, i wont be buying them again as it really upset me.

Sorry

www.peeonastick.com is really good for all hpt related questions.

Good luck

Have done three pregnancy tests in my life, also at very early stages, none looked convincingly positive to me (ie line very feint, took a while to appear) - all were accurate! Fingers crossed for you.

I shall wait until 15 nov before i test again!

Many thanks!

I would get another test to make sure, and do it on the 15th (I know it seems too long to wait ).

Because you are a few days early it could be that it took a while for the result to show up (because of low preg hormone levels), but if it did appear clearly I would (tentatively) say you are pg. I've heard you cant get a false positive, and evaporation lines don't look like positive lines.

Good luck x

yei, thanks Miss Chief... very weird indeed! I think i will wait until day period is due... this testing thing is very tiring (emotionally)!

It may be an evaporation line though - there is a website called pee on a stick with all kinds of answers...byt why not wait a few days and try agaib (hard I know).

not sure, may be faulty test or not done quite right? I think though htat they can give a false negative (not enough hormone level) but rarely give a false postive. Don't want to get yr hopes up, but if i were you I'd go and get another test! Good luck
