How many DPO are you?

Mummaof1boyx · 14/08/2023 10:47

I am 12/13 DPO

I had a line exactly like this and it was a horrible evap. All pink dye tests were negative.

Try a pink dye as these ClearBlue ones are awful.

DixonD · 14/08/2023 10:49

I’d do a pink dye test to be sure. It’s possibly positive but as blue dye tests are know for evaporation lines, I’d never use them.

Mummaof1boyx · 14/08/2023 10:50

Thank you for your responses. I will nip out to Tesco this morning to buy a pink dye!

Feeling slightly nervous as am a single mum of a child (nearly 5) with additional needs

It looks faintly positive for 12dpo.
Would you like to be pregnant? Having read your update I'm not sure.
Do get yourself a FRER as they're more reliable.

Mummaof1boyx · 14/08/2023 11:07

If I am pregnant, I will have a lot of thinking to do. I’m currently in quite a difficult situation. I own my own flat but financially am struggling as was made redundant from my job as a Domiciliary nurse. Plus am a single mother to a lovely son who does have additional needs and is very full on

I would think the line would be much darker at 12dpo. I've had darker at 9dpo.
I've also had evaps like this from clearblue.
Given your situation I hope the next test confirms it's just an evap x

MaggieBsBoat · 14/08/2023 12:14

I would expect it to be darker and clearer at that stage.
Get another test asap if you don’t want this pregnancy.

Mummaof1boyx · 14/08/2023 13:13

Hi everyone, thanks for your replies. I have re calculated and am actually 9DPO.

OP I am 10 dpo today and my test looks similar buts pink dye. I am going to buy some more tests as I don’t trust it?

Out of interest what is the best place to buy a FRER? I can’t find them in the supermarkets.

Mummaof1boyx · 14/08/2023 13:20

Hi, I would recommend buying them off Amazon. My rapid response pink dye ones will be arriving tonight. I’ve just bought another clear blue early response and I still am unsure of results as I don’t trust them due to evap lines. I’ve also done a pink dye test and negative but this one was not as high sensitivity one as early response. X

I think that pink dye rapid response ones are much better than clear blue from what I have been told x

Its hard to say if its an evap line or not. It looks like my test with DD2 at 9dpo but mine came up within a few minutes and CB are bad for evap lines but I think given the time frame it's more likely to be an evap rather than a BFP.

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 14/08/2023 13:30

I think that’s a line. Well, it’s much more distinct than the line I had when I was pregnant with either of my two.

HariboFantastics · 14/08/2023 13:44

I had similar and it was an evap. Clear blue are awful for them i’ve found. I will attach my own. Hoping for the news you want. 🤍

This is the line I had this morning OP. I’m still not getting my hopes up!

@Headchog9 yours looks like a BFP.

OP if you're only 9 dpo you are unlikely to get a clear answer.

It's none of my business, so don't answer if you don't want to, but if you don't want to be pregnant, did you take the MAP?

Mummaof1boyx · 14/08/2023 16:51

Went for annual smear and coil had fallen out of place, not sure for how long!

Mummaof1boyx · 14/08/2023 16:52

So sorry xxx

OP posts:
Mummaof1boyx · 14/08/2023 16:53

Looks faint but definitely there!!

OP posts:
FawnFrenchieMum · 14/08/2023 16:55

No experience of the clear blue but I’d say pregnant if I’d have had that test. Fingers crossed you get the result you are hoping for.

YouCantBeSadHoldingACupcake · 14/08/2023 17:09

In the picture it looks like an evap line. If it is grey not blue, that is more likely to be an evap line.

TheShellBeach · 14/08/2023 17:29

What a difficult situation for you, OP.
