Thoughts? I’m 41 and TTC.

I thought I could see something at first but it was a total squinter… this is outside the time but I feel it’s clearer now. 7DPO and aware it’s extremely early.

Yes I can see this!

Do you think there’s a chance even though it’s dried out? I’ve never had anything like this before.

I’m wondering if it’s an evaporation line.

I had it with one of mine. I found it in the bin and it was positive. Ended up with a baby! Crossing fingers for you

I can’t tell you how amazing that would be. This is our first attempt after a failed IVF cycle.

I can see what you’re seeing. Does it have any colour in real life?

I’d be tempted to hold a wee for four hours and try again later (and tomorrow morning).

I think so - it’s really really faint though. This was a wee cheapie I found in the back of the cupboard. More tests arriving today at some point. Definitely getting twinges in my abdomen, but it’s impossible to distinguish from PMS at this point isn’t it.

Looks positive from my phone screen!

Do you think that IVF can 'get things moving' or something?

AndyouWILLATONE · 16/10/2026 13:52

Yes it can

You made me laugh there, thank you! I just know it’s so early and I’ll drive myself mad. I have a horrible feeling it’s going to end up as an evap line.

AndyouWILLATONE · 17/10/2026 17:48

Here's hoping that you are wrong!

countrylifeorcitylife · 17/10/2026 18:23

Good luck op!

cannynotsay · 17/10/2026 19:51

Fingers crossed for you xxx

strictlybusinessuntildecember · 17/10/2026 20:04

If you are definitely sure you were 7dpo then I’m going to say it’s a really bad evap. I had twins and only got a very very paint squinter at 3dp5dt so 8DPO equivalent and that with a first response
wishing you loads of luck though I know how hard it is x

sigh

Definitely an evap line.

Not totally out yet, but I feel a bit crampy and my CM has a very slight pinky tinge that I get as my period approaches.

OP posts:
arlequin · 19/10/2026 20:04

OP don’t give up hope yet. Could be an implantation bleed

cannynotsay · 20/10/2026 13:37

Oh I’m sorry x
