11dpo and unsure about a line on a Boots early test

I've been testing since 9dpo - I got an indent on a boots test, and CB negative, I got more boots tests today and took it in the afternoon. I have had period like cramps since 8dpo up until today. They come and go and aren't intense, just mild and annoying lol.
This is what pushed me to get more tests today because I never cramp during my cycle and I am not due until 1st/2nd October. Also had quick sharp twinges around 6&7dpo.

Anyway, the test i done this afternoon I could see a vvvfl as the dye ran through, then at 3 mins I could still see a line, same at 5mins when it started to develop, I took pictures as time went on and just watched it develop, around 15mins I could clearly see a very faint line, I can see a pink colour its definitely not colourless or grey, but the camera doesnt seem to pick up the colour.

Is it an indent or evap line? Not getting my hopes up until I see a proper line but cant help wonder lol. Will keep testing and update the thread incase anyone else is in the same boat.

I would definitely do an early Clearblue digital. I didn't want to comment again after seeing your pics from yesterday because to me they didn't look positive and I didn't want to upset you... but these recent pics definitely look like an early positive to me!

Thank you for your kindness. I just bought the clear blue early digital so will take that soon.

I don’t find this brand good at all, maybe try with an easy @ home test, or the new clearblue with pink dye. I think those are both more sensitive x

Thank you!

It came within the time frame but at that time I couldnt make out if it was pink or not, about 20mins later it got darker and was pink.

Try a different brand , x

How long are we talking? As long as it’s within the time it’s positive

The same thing happened this morning, FMU test took ages to develop!! I've no idea what to think. It does look pink to me but very faint line? Can anyone see a pink line lol? What do you make of this? I'm going to go buy more tests now I've ran out, might try the early clear blue test?

Hoping it's a positive! Hard to say without seeing a pic. Will say though, I frequently hallucinated lines when I was ttc, so might be worth getting a second opinion from someone who can see it in person. Fingers crossed for you.

Thank you! Sorry just uploaded 2 pictures now. It does look grey on the oics? Maybe im hallucinating the colour pink lol
