Positive or evap line?

Opinions please! Would you say these are very VERY faint positives or evap lines?
Taken on day of missed period and subsequent three days. Photos taken within 5 minute window of testing.

So after lots of confusion I was sent to the EPU by my doctor. Sadly blood tests and other symptoms confirmed a very early miscarriage. Lots of Positive thinking now and moving forward 🤍 Wishing you all the best with your journeys.

@LividLaVidaLoca

I’m sorry OP. It does look like you’ve had a chemical. It’s a horrible headfuck.
😔 it's looking that way isn't it...

[quote MajesticallyAwkward]@Mumm1 I can imagine, it can be so hard and it's a really emotional time. 🤞 for your next test

My second pregnancy I did just as many tests... and squinted at dozens trying to see lines before the bfp. My first positive with dc2 was so pale and took a week to be obvious (then a lot more cheapie strip tests, 3 digitals and 6 FRERs over a couple of weeks before I believed it!)[/quote]
I've just taken a strip test and it was a clear negative so I'm starting to wonder if maybe I've experienced a chemical pregnancy. Will speak to my doctor tomorrow and see what they advise.

Positive or evap line?

[quote MajesticallyAwkward]@Mumm1 to be honest the strip test would be enough if it was positive at your OP. I must have done 30 of them when I got my first bfp! Slightly addicted to seeing those lines after years of ttc.

The digital tests aren't as sensitive as the pink dye tests and cause no end of anxiety. [/quote]
I'm just feeling very confused as I got a big strong line for my first pregnancy so it was clear for anyone to see - but this time round I don't feel convinced... several people have said positive but I just don't feel reassured enough yet. The anxiety it's causing is awful!

@MajesticallyAwkward

Have you an FRER or any more pink dye tests? It could still be early for the digital but I would expect the pink dye tests to be clearer by now.

Your middle photo is a very obvious line, I'd definitely do another.

I don't have a FRER test and won't be able to get one today. I'll try another strip test later and see how that shows up. I've got an appointment with my doctor tomorrow. It's all very odd!

Ergh! Digital test taken this morning and showed as negative but still no period. I'm on cycle day 39 and 20 DPO... Time for some advice from the doctor I think! 😔

@TheHopefulMum

Hi *@Mumm1*

I had exactly the same situation yesterday and after 4 tests all with faint positive lines I went for a Clearblue. Our first test didn't work either and hubby headed straight out for another which was a BFP 1-2 weeks, which would be right.

Hopefully you get a digital to confirm you BFP.

Thank you! Congratulations to you! I've got two digitals (not clear blue). They're not early tests (sold out) so I'm going to wait another few days and then try in the morning. Fingers crossed 🤞🏼 I literally wanted to smash the thing up when it showed an error tho!

@Heepers

My husband was convinced there wasn't a line on my test too. That non line is now a 5 month old baby.
Lol. Congratulations to you. It seems I have a challenge to achieve the clear result so I know for sure!
OP posts:
Heepers · 10/01/2022 19:29

And I would say they're definitely positive.

So I got ants in my pants and did the clear blue digital early test this evening. And it failed and an error code came up! Great!! 😔
