Is this a fading BFP?

The top test was taken on Saturday 3rd June when I was 1 day late.

All symptoms seemed to fizzle out after feeling really quite sick so I took the bottom test yesterday to calm my mind, it's had the opposite affect 🙄

It doesn't say on the test or the instructions which is the control line. The pee bit is to the left. Can anyone help me out? Is this is fading BFP? It's a First Response test.

When your 'really' pregnant the dye can be all sucked up by the pregnant line and leave not much for your control line. Why not try a digital one to put your mind at rest.

Owiseones · 13/06/2017 11:57

I'm just confused as to which one is the control line. I think it's the one on the right which means it's the test line that's become lighter?

Try a clear blue digital.

Can you post a photo of the full test? So we can see which is which line?

Owiseones · 13/06/2017 12:02

Hotpink, I can do when I'm home. There is nothing on the test to identity which line is which but the dipstick is to left of the result window

The line on the right is the control line. I suggest testing tomorrow with FMU - it could just be a dodgy test! Worst case scenario is a chemical pregnancy but the first test was so strong that a doubt it.

Digi!

Owiseones · 13/06/2017 12:13

I'm supposed to be 6 weeks on Thursday so I wasn't sure if FMU was needed, I will try tomorrow morning though

I've found the instructions in my bag I'm in pretty sure the control line is on the right so it's the result line that's faded Sad

Hi the control line is the mine furthest from the pee end so on the left if you hold the pee end to the right which is what is pictured. Looks like a super strong bfp to me rather than a fading one. The test line has sucked almost all of the dye from the control line.

AmyB1986 · 13/06/2017 12:49

Oh and congratulations 😁

Owiseones · 13/06/2017 16:39

Are you sure AmyB?

AmyB1986 · 13/06/2017 16:48

@Owiseones definitely! I've attached a pic of mine. The control line is furthest from the pee end on all the tests

@AmyB1986 they aren't the same tests.

Hotpinkangel19 · 13/06/2017 16:56

Op if you can get another frer and do with FMU you should have your answer x good luck x

Owiseones · 13/06/2017 16:56

This is a full picture of the tests for the person who asked

@Owiseones it doesn't matter the control line on all tests is furthest from the pee end

mcdog · 13/06/2017 17:06

I do loads of pregnancy tests (professionally!). The result line is the one nearest the pee end in every test I've ever used.

Hotpinkangel19 · 13/06/2017 17:36

What @mcdog said, it's a really strong line! It's pulled it from the control line!!

Hotpinkangel19 · 13/06/2017 17:37

Fab line OP! Really dark!!!! Congratulations x

NoWordForFluffy · 13/06/2017 19:54

That's a cracking BFP!

Congratulations!
