Does this test look negative or could it be an evaporation line? 9DPO

Hi! I’m not familiar with evaporation lines (I’ve always tested only at 13dpo or 14dpo with previous babies), does this look like a BFN? I think I can see a VERY faint line, but it may be one of those evaporations too…I looked quickly when I took the test, then looked again with better light about 30 minutes later and I thought I saw something.

thanks!

If it was within the 3 minutes its unlikely to be an evaporation line, I would do another test to be sure but I think that's a positive! Good luck OP!

To me that test has a definite line!!

Thanks! It doesn’t show from the photo but it’s definitely pink, not gray like evap lines could be…I think I’ll test tomorrow with a FRER to be sure

11DPO today, I took the photo within the 3 minutes window this time. Am I going crazy or there is a faint line?

Anything after 5 10 minutes would be classed as an evap line. Test again in a few days and try not to look at the test after 10 minutes
