CB Vertical Line

[tobermory29]

When you do a CB test can you always see the vertical line if you hold it in a certain light? 10 dpo, if you just look at the test it's negative, but hold it at the window and I can see the vertical line, is that always there? Thanks :-)

I recently got a BFP on a digital test and I reasearched the reliability of them. Unfortunately they do give out false positives it's certainly not heard of. There was a thread on here that I found and many people had added to it saying the same thing.

It's just that other tests are BFN so keep an open mind....

Typical. I can't find the thread.

That is to say, if I found it difficult to find then at least Google isn't throwing up loads of false positives. Nonetheless, keep an open mind if the IC's are stark white because that's very unusual...

So now I'm getting concerned...Yea Hotpink it's one step. Did another test this morning and it's still bfn on the IC! But I've had 2 positive digital! Also, AF never came, I have mild pregnancy symptoms! Why is nothing showing on these tests?

One Step are shite, read the reviews on Amazon. You've had two positives on a digital test, don't stress yourself over a shitty IC. They're 5p each for a reason.

Thank you haveacupoftea I hope you're right. Getting upset now that it's all a mistake.

You probably just got a bad batch of IC's - much more likely than 2 FP's on a digital. Could you get a FRER this afternoon?

Tober put your mind at rest and run down to your nearest Boots and pick up an FRER. You'll feel much better afterwards

Can't get a FRER where I am but I did another cb digital and it's positive. So i'll take that for today, there's no way 3 could be false xx

Not sure if I can see something squinty on a ic after holding wee, hate having line eye!!! 😂 @tobermory29 is it a cb digital? X

Yea it is Hotpink xx

They're usually strong so I think it's a good sign!!!! Xx

Your post made me smile Red. Thank you so much. I am going to abide by your professional opinion, as I agree, they are shit! xx

Any updates @tobermory29??? X

Started spotting yesterday. Still spotting. Don't think it's looking good.

Oh no tober thinking of you!

Don't give up hope, can you get a doctors appointment? X

Been to doc. It's heavy now, cramps, so that's it, wasn't to be.

Oh no. I'm so sorry. I've been following this thread and willing your news to be good. So sorry. Take care of yourself

Oh tober I'm so sorry. Look after yourself x

Thank you. Feeling a little low but going to take it easy and hopefully start looking ahead again once the bleeding stops xx

Hugs xxx

Just wanted to check up on you tober I hope you're feeling a bit better

This whole chain is just so sad I'm sorry it didn't work out @tober.

I've had two false positives this month, a day of brown spotting yesterday then nothing today. Loads of ics and all bfn so definitely share the frustration that it's not black and white with these tests. Nightmare.

Hope you're doing okay and good luck everyone - onwards and upwards xx
