Torch on pregnancy test

I have no idea if I’m putting this in the right place or not but if you shine a light through a pregnancy test and can see a line is that just the indent line where the positive would? Trying to convince myself otherwise but I think I know it’s not a positive. I’m around 10dpo.

I know it's incredibly frustrating but your best bet is to give it time. Shining a light though is likely to show the indent or evap shadow line.

And FRERs are absolutely appalling now so where usually is suggest getting one if those, I honestly wouldn't bother with one of those until you've missed your period. It's excruciating.

Fingers crossed for you 🤞

I agree with the PP, just give it a few more days so you don’t have to second guess

If you have to shine a torch through it, it's not positive. That said, with my 2nd, I felt so very ill and obviously pregnant from 5 dpo. I took at test at 12 dpo and it was completely negative, not even a hint of a line. I continued to feel awful. I had to come home from work a few days later because I felt so ill. I took another test the next morning at 16 dpo and it was very obviously positive. 10 dpo is still really early so I'd try to give it some time for now.
