Is this an evaporation line? If a line at all?

I really don't seem to know anything about pregnancy tests. As such, I shouldn't have even looked today but sense went out the window.

I have just poas. It was a cheap one from pharmacy. I only just read the leaflet which says use as early as first day from missed period and with morning urine. I am 10 days post ovulation (so not missed a period yet) and it was 2:30 in the afternoon so I really haven't done this right.

Is this what I have read is an evaporation line?

Thanks

My cycles are all over the place-some have been 45 days long but my luteal phases have been short-8/9 days. I got a very clear OPK positives on the 23rd and 24th and only tested because I had gone longer since OPK+ with no period than usual. If this happens again, I must not test so soon!

Thanks Jelly-it's because it's lighter today that I'm sure it's not to be this month plus cramps are strong.

My first pregnancy I got pregnant first cycle with a very clear positive but this second time around, it's so much harder to get pregnant.

Mine looked just like that at 5days after my missed period! I must have ovulated layer which made the line very faint. I think yours is positive! Test in a few days.
Or
Try clear blue digital- no guessing games then. It says 'pregnant' or 'not pregnant'

JustDontGetItAtAll · 05/08/2017 08:45

Run out and get a digital! X

ThatsWotSheSaid · 05/08/2017 08:46

Mine were all very faint. Fingers crossed.

I will get a digital. If it was the same colour as yesterday I'd be more optimistic but fainter is what's making me be so negative!
Thanks everyone-I'm feeling quite cross with myself and was expecting people to
Tell me what I'm thinking which is I'm ridiculous!

Thank you. I miscarried DC twin last pregnancy (only other pregnancy) so I have little idea of normal at this stage.

Really, thank you.

Congratulations! I had such strong cramps I went to buy some tampons as was sure it was imminent.
It's so nice to see it in writing isn't it.

buzzmoon · 05/08/2017 13:35

Congrats! :)

Scarlet I've also had 3 mcs, there used to be a thread for people pregnant after miscarriage I got loads of support on there.Flowers

It is odd because my pregnancy before was really challenging so although I've only had one pregnancy, I've had a baby and a miscarriage and no idea of what to expect.

I'm so glad I posted - wish I had been on MN last time.

Not even super faint-I'd say pretty faint which is better than super faint Smile
