7 weeks late…is this my BFP?

After weeks of BFNs, I’ve got this. It came up within 5 mins but is very faint.
Opinions please?

Thanks all. Honestly, I don’t know what’s going on. These are One-Step test strips from Amazon, they’re supposed to be 10miu, but the reviews are full of people getting really faint positives after their periods, so I doubt they actually are as sensitive as they claim to be.
Just done another and BFN 🤷‍♀️
I’ll try again with FMU tomorrow.

Just been to Asda and felt so wet down below that I thought AF had arrived. Just lots of discharge though.
Also been really belchy-hiccuppy and a bit queasy.
I just wanna know what’s going on 😩😩😩

Have you seen the GP about your missed periods?

For 2 days late, I'd expect it to be much darker.

@Buttons659 I have been reading so much lately about the Covid jab effecting peoples cycles, I wouldn't rule it out as a possibility...

The other thing is what tests you're using, I've had some really frustrating experiences with tests since TTC and I now stick with First Response or Clear blue, however clear blue can leave some pretty convincing evap lines if you check too late!! X

Ah sorry, just read your update. Could be, there is a faint line there, did it appear within the time allowed? I'd test again in a few days and see if it gets darker.

Hi! Thanks for replying!
I had my 2nd Covid jab in august, so I had x1 AF after that, then missed the next two. Do you think it could be related?

I guess I’m kinda wondering now, if the Covid jab might have made me miss x1 AF, then I may have conceived on the 2nd cycle? By that theory, I’d only be 2 days late right now 🤷‍♀️

AF* not MF😅

Heya! I'm not sure i can actually help but i can definitely see a VFL there!
Test again in the morning with FMU or wait a few more days.. hard to do i know 😩😂
What brand test are you using? Do you know the sensitivity of the test?
7 weeks late is very late, you should have a strong line by now! Perhaps its worth contacting your GP?
Although its not very common some women produce a very low HCG level sometimes undetectable on urine tests but continue to have a healthy pregnancy...
I'd ask your GP for a blood test if I were you...
have you had a Covid vaccine since your last MF?
