AIBU to have to ask this at my age?

Sorry it's another pregnancy test one... I have never used this type of test before so.... Can anyone else see two lines or am I imagining it?

I can't. But then it won't let me zoom in. X

I can see 2, the dark line and a fainter line further down.

I have a feeling the fainter blurred line people are seeing further down the stick is always present on those tests. It's where the dye gathers at the join and does not mean pregnant. Sorry but I can't see a second line where it should be placed.

Wasn't trying... One of accident, thought it would be slim to no chance. Timing not great...have two already but I feel happy!

I can only see one sorry. The line further down isn't in the right place to be a line.

That looks positive to me. Is that what you were hoping?

I can see two but not where you'd normally see the second on those tests. Try again tomorrow when it should be darker if posotive?

Cross posted. What does the packaging say about where the second line would be?

I can only see one. The bold at the top. The red at the bottom is just where the ink starts off at.
I can't see two.

Looksbetter - that's what i wasn't sure about! On the instructions it seemed to be nearer together..?? Has anyone any experience of these strip tests?

I can't see a second line only where the pink dye collects at the end

Those kits are really cheap and hard to read.
I suggest you get to the chemist and buy a clearblue or similar.

That's not a positive, it's just where the dye gathers. A second line indicating a positive test would be further up, in the same part of the strip as the control line.

I used them when I was pregnant, the lines would be closer together.

I'm pretty darn confident it's negative OP :)

Looks negative to me. The bottom line is too far away.

Report
SparklyMagpie · 08/03/2017 08:24

I'd suggest if you're worried trying another test

But I'd say it was negative

Good luck op

Negative , that's justvthe dye collecting.

Fortheloveofdog · 08/03/2017 08:25

The dye starts there and can look red if too much urine is absorbed. Test again just to make sure, but I would count that as negative.

Will go for a better test today. I actually did the same type yesterday but there was def only one pink line.

As I said it's not great timing but I now feel gutted!!

If you hold it in your urine too long you get that fake line. Yesterday you probably didn't hold it in for the same length of time.

This was 10 days after I conceived. I honestly cannot see a line on yours, I'm really sorry Sad

That second pink line is just where the dye collects at the end of the stick. If it was a positive then the two lines would be very close together, usually about a centimetre apart.

Good luck with another test if you want a positive result but this one looks negative to me.
