Reluctantly posting because I am trying not to be a crazy ttc lady but on 4th cycle and just took a test 4 days before af due and got this... it's a very faint thin line If my eyes aren't playing tricks?! Only ever had stark white before. Am I being daft?

No you are not being daft, I can see a very faint line too.

I can see a faint half of a line, fingers crossed :)

Think I'll do a frer tomorrow... eek. Don't want to get too excited and not told my hubby I've done a test!

Second test looks a wee bit flooded. You're not supposed to take them apart either as it invalidates them.

I can't see anything on the first test but that's because this bleddy device barely displays the text, let alone anything else.

Have you tried posting on canyouseealine? I like it because you can invert it which usually helps.

If you can see a faint line, chances are it's there. My early tests with both dc were proper squinters. Best of luck.

Thanks for your advice, might try that site.

Did you wee on the test or did you dip it?

Wee'd on it!

Now I can't see a line and I can generally always see a line! Wee into a pot tomorrow morning and dip it. If there is a faint line today then tomorrow it should be darker - if pregnant. Good luck! Xx

Yes, wee in a pot and dip! If you peed on the test, there's a fair chance of flooding it or splashing urine in the wrong place which results in the sort of smudgy thing you're seeing. It's made the test useless. The test instructions might tell you to wee on the test but you should ignore them. They are wrong. We are right.

Have you tried again? Fingers crossed! X

Showy thanks for the info on can you see a line. The inverted picture helped see it much better! Still need to take another test, but at least I know I'm not going crazy!
