Is there a line?

I’m rolling my eyes at myself because I know I’ve tested too early and am also being insane, but I’d convinced myself I’m pregnant. I believe I am 9 days post ovulation. Did a FRS this morning and I think I can see a very faint line but also wondering if it’s an evaporation line? Had a miscarriage earlier this year and have been trying for 18 months so a bit desperate and probably grasping at straws. Can anyone see it too?? I will test again tomorrow but driving myself insane.
Evap or potentially positive? 🙄🥲

Oh what lovely news!!!!

Congratulations! Sorry to hijack your thread, I was searching to see if anyone had experienced this as my head is up my arse not knowing! Got two faint lines yesterday and faint again this morning but I'm already 3 days overdue so I'm a bit worried the line should be darker?!

Been trying for a year, already have 17, 8, and 6 year olds lol but also had 2 mc's like yourself. I guess the anxiety of potential loss never goes away xx

Ahhh… wonderful. Wishing you the best!

Just did a digital…. Pregnant!!! I was going to wait until tomorrow after my husbands excessive eye rolling earlier in the week, but woke up feeling really nauseous… not sure whether to wake him from his lie in to tell him 🤣
REALLY hope this one sticks. Not sure I can face another loss.

How are things @SRK16

somuchtolearnabout · 30/11/2022 13:01

So sorry to hear that @SRK16 😭😭

Inasec24 · 30/11/2022 07:40

I can't see a line at all on your first pic. Could be too early though at 9dpo - good luck x

couldnt wait so did another FRS. Not a glimmer of a second line so I can only assume it was an evap. Disappointing as I convinced myself I was pregnant. I’ll wait for my period I guess 😞

@SRK16 how long was the hold from the first response test? To be fair if you leave it 24 hours you should see an improvement in the line. (As long as you’re not drinking loads and it’s a similar hold).

LMM91x · 29/11/2022 14:39

@SRK16 heyyy agree re digital, they are generally a little behind (though many people do get them early of course!!)

i see the line though , breathe and test again in a few days (hard I know!, I had a faint pos onna FRER this morning and I’m trying to convince myself to do this also🤣🤣)xxx

Daniki · 29/11/2022 12:51

Yep I see a line! I wouldn't bother with a digital until you hit the date or after the date your period due!

somuchtolearnabout · 29/11/2022 12:43

Which digital did you get? Did you get the one which says you can test from 6 days before period is due? I got a positive on a clearblue digi at 8DPO with my 3rd baby with a middle of the day wee so it's deffo possible. Maybe try with the other digital one - I'll send a pic because I can def see a line on the FRER. How long after you tested was that taken?

ChloeN · 29/11/2022 12:41

@SRK16 thats definitely the best idea if you can manage to hold out!! It looks very obvious for an indent or evap, how long did it take to show? Xx

SRK16 · 29/11/2022 12:37

Thank you both. I’m going to try and hold off until Thursday or Friday as if I get another unclear/negative tomorrow I think I’ll scream. I do wonder if the FRS is an evap though 😞

ChloeN · 29/11/2022 12:21

@SRK16 if you can find a clearblue ultra early digital try that! Think they’re really sensitive

ChickinMarango · 29/11/2022 12:13

@SRK16 so a FRER has a testing level of 6.25miu and a digital 10miu. With a line that faint you’d not get a positive yet. If you’ve digital another save it until tomorrow or the day after if you can hold out. I can see a line though! Good luck.

Digital said not pregnant 😞
though I read the instructions after and it said if before your period is due use the first urine of the day. Feel like I’m grasping at straws. Think husband is annoyed with me 🙊

I really desperately want to go to the shop now but can’t right now 🙈 This is my fourth pregnancy (have a 3y/o & 2 mc) and I think the only time I tested this early before the line was clearer. How am I meant to concentrate on work now!

TheTeddyBears · 29/11/2022 08:38

That's a line congrats. Mine were same for about a week and I was overdue my period. The line also appeared outside the timeframe. So first time I sat it down went bk after 10mins nothing then went to put it in the bin later I saw feint line. Same thing happened every day it never got darker or appeared within the time. My dh was the same ur not pregnant bla bla bla. Digital confirmed it though and she's 3 now!

ChloeN · 29/11/2022 08:34

@SRK16 I see it too☺️ I agree with getting a digital sometimes you just need to see it in words xx

LanadelDoll · 29/11/2022 08:32

Yep, that's a line. I know that a miscarriage can take the enjoyment out of it but take it one day at a time. I had a mmc and now have a daughter and son with only 20 months between them.

Good luck!

pluckie · 29/11/2022 08:30

I can see it too. Fingers crossed for you.
