Have I been staring at this test for too long?!

Hi!
So I'm 2 days late for my period & no signs of it coming.
My last period was 4/8 so I should've O'd around the 18th I think.

I did a test last Wednesday which I thought was 12dpo & was negative.
Now I'm 2 days late & just done a clear blue positive/negative test and can't tell if I've just stared at it too long or if there actually is a very very faint blue vertical line.
I know everyone's probably sick of seeing tests but please lend me your eyes! Thank you ladies

Yes I see a very very faint line

outofmymind2 · 03/09/2017 16:25

Thankyou ouch!

I'm worried because if it's positive surely it should be darker than that if I Od when I thought I did.

Tests are so stressful!

I think I see it on your second photo!! Fingers crossed for you x

MrsDc7 · 03/09/2017 16:25

There could be a very very faint line but only way to know is retest in a few days with first wee of the day. Good luck

Fridgedooropen · 03/09/2017 16:25

I can't see a line, sorry.

outofmymind2 · 03/09/2017 16:25

Thank you everyone
Don't know what I'd do without supportive forums sometimes!

Hold it up to the window... that's how I could see my last positive test - it was hardly visible to the naked eye. Get a digital one!

outofmymind2 · 03/09/2017 16:28

Thanks mrsD ! The first photo is taken in front of the window as our house has bad lighting anyway. Will keep testing through the week if period doesn't show up

Also meant to add in original post - this was done with a wee literally 30 mins after I last went for a wee. Not exactly held in 😂

I can't see anything. Try again with FMU. It's pretty pointless to use any other wee unless you're well past af date. Good luck!

BabyKangaroo90 · 03/09/2017 19:43

I don't want to put a downer on it for you but I just had a test like this, same brand and a faint vertical line. Got my hopes right up and then AF arrived this morning. Devastated.

Ps really hope it is your BFP! FlowersSmile

demirose87 · 03/09/2017 19:50

I can see a very faint line but it would normally be darker if you're late for period. Clearblue do have evap lines unfortunately. I'd retest on a frer in a couple of days.

Orangebird69 · 03/09/2017 19:52

Sorry OP, I think that's an evap line.

outofmymind2 · 03/09/2017 19:53

Sorry to hear that Bambino they do look identical as well. Flowers

demi I had heard they're bad for Evaps so I aren't trusting these and will test again in a few days

Thank you ladies

3 days late now, done another clearblue with FMU & it's definitely negative.

Wonder what's going on with me!

How long are your cycles normally and when did you ovulate? It's probably a case of late ovulation or hopefully late implantation. X

outofmymind2 · 04/09/2017 07:56

mouse usually bang on 28 days. I think I ovulated around the 18th, I had some bleeding around the 22nd that literally lasted less than a day and was just brown blood (sorry!) which has puzzled me even more so!
