Super-de-duper faint line on my pregnancy test.

[MoonGlorious]

I am considerably late for my period anyways but I am putting this down to un even cycles as this is only my 2nd cycle since coming off the pill!

I bought a £1 pound land test (i usually get the cheapie ones from ebay) and did the test this morning.

The faintest, faintest line came up, it was so very faint.

I took it down stairs straight away and laid it on white paper, I called to DH who said he could see the line (usually I can see a line anyways - but DH never can so I guess HIM seeing it is the big event here!! )

Anyways, its was unbelievably faint, I couldn't get a photo of it (not that I tried)

Over the day it has faded and now looks like an evap line, but I can't believe it to be true as I have seen 'lines' so many time on those cheap tests!

Hi MoonGlorious

I was always under the impression that all HPTs were created equal, and you just paid for a brand name and a more elaborate casing, but having read a few posts on this site, I think that the opposite's true.

Lots of people have reported getting BFNs or v faint BFPs on cheaper tests then going on to get a full-on BFP on a brand name test. I reckon that, if you've got a really faint line, you should upgrade to a better test and try it with that. Good luck!

it slike this one

Well, they say that lines get darker as the levels of HCG increase, so maybe POAS again in a few days? Or try a better test if you reslly can't wait (and are made of money )

Fingers crossed for you!

I got hideously squinters could almost be evap lines on the internet cheapies - even now with like week 7 pee the lines still aren't awesome on them - I just htink they're faint as part of their characteristics.

For comparison purposes - fertility friend has a gallery of positive test sticks and there are some right royal squinters on there!

I'd go buy something decent like a First Response (try to avoid the blue dye ones and go pink if at all possible) - I got a much more definite line with one of those... even though the internet cheapies were meant to be uber uber sensitive.

Hi, I agree with empty I POAS on Wed and got an almost invisible line but that night (11pm) it was darker - these were internet cheapies then the next morning I got a really clear BFP on a FR.

Hope you get the result you want

Thanks, keep getting bits of spotting but its like brown not my period.

Will get another test today or tomorrow

well no, its not even spotting as its only a streak when i wipe on 3 diff days!

mine was exactly like this one, too faint even to see colour really but there straight away

I had a very faint line on one of those poundland tests, DH didn't believe me, it was almost not there - waited till first pee of the day the next day, used another of the same tests, and it was a definite positive. Also had the spotting, was implantation. 4month old DD gurgling here next to me! Good luck!

Get one of those ClearBlue digital tests - there's no messing about trying to interpret lines, it just says 'Pregnant' or 'Not Pregnant'

Yes, I agree about the digital test. I tried 2 cheapo test and got one too faint to tell if it was there and the other negative- but the digital one came up positive (it was right!). Boots do their own digital one, I think it's a bit cheaper than the clearblue one.

Hmmm, i might get a digital one.

Am feeling quite sick now, lol. it will be my mind playing tricks though!

sorry that link abouve with the digi and FR isn't the right link!
