Im 11-12 dpo and took a frer with smu and looks like a faint positive but 2 hours later after holding i took a clear blue digital and it displayed not pregnant 😞 What do you think?

Oh, one I can actually see!!! (I can't see the blue ones because of an eyesight problem) No, I can see a very faint line... as in VERY faint. It's a bit clearer if you tilt the photo up but I'd wait a few more days to do another test just to be sure. My tests were all very faint when I finally got positives and I had to wait several days after my period due date for it to show. Fingers crossed for you!

With my youngest I never got a positive on a CB digi test until a few days after that of my FRER's. There's definitely a line there although I had to tilt my monitor to see it (terrible laptop!). You're super early so the line was never going to kick you in the face! Congratulations though - there's a line!! I thought I was imagining mine so had to check with others too!

I can see it 😁clear blue needs more hcg..Frer more sensitive. Congrats x

Sallywiththegoodhurrr · 11/09/2017 13:46

I can see it! The digitals aren't as sensitive so it won't show for a while on there

2furbabies · 11/09/2017 14:37

Sorry to say it looks like an ident line xx

This might be a better picture, once I had started the test I checked back on it in 5mins would this still be an indent? Bugger, we have been trying for 3.9 years so I really hope not 😞

I can see the faint line but it looks slightly more to the edge of the window than the control line. I had one like that, an off centre 'line' when I wasn't pregnant. I think a positive would be slightly closer to the control. I've attached my negative frer from last year. Mine is fainter (you can see I turned contrast up) but isn't symmetrical if that makes sense.

I'd test with a frer again tomorrow. CB aren't as sensitive so all is not lost.

Can't see a line at all on my uploaded picture! Can see it clearly on my phone Hmm

TiramisuQueenoftheFaeries · 11/09/2017 16:04

It does look from here like it might be grey, which unfortunately would make it an indent line rather than a valid positive. Is it pink?

user1470147116 · 11/09/2017 17:30

Yes thats a line

Niclou98 · 11/09/2017 18:03

Iv had these sort of tests in the past and beat myself up about it , putting a negative filter on it to see if the second line shows but no hope! Really sorry it looks like a true negative :( if your still unsure I'd get blood test done at the doctors ! Are you using a ovulation app?

Misssmoo · 11/09/2017 18:57

I can see a line good luck xx

This is my test from fmu but the digital still says no... it came up straight away... why is this so difficult 😞

The last photo looks like a like but I doubt it if the digital says negative. I'm sorry.

elfinpre · 12/09/2017 04:51

They are all clearly negative, I'm sorry.

OuchBollocks · 12/09/2017 04:55

I can see a line in this morning's photo. Digitals are usually less than half as sensitive as FRERs so you probably won't get a positive on a digi for another 48 hours or so.

accendo · 12/09/2017 05:06

That's a line, congratulations.

Lenl · 12/09/2017 06:58

This morning looks like a line for sure! I've attached my early positive frer - they look the same to me.

CB digi is way less sensitive so you could have positive frers for 3 or 4 days and a negative on a digi. They feel more reassuring than a normal one because they display words but they just have lines inside the same as any other.

If you are a poas addict like I was want more reassurance I'd ditch digital for a bit and get more frers. I know people sneer/laugh at constant testing but it's whatever gets you through in my mind. I did loads with my first.

The pic I attached, I'd had a clear negative fmu that day so I didn't drink or wee for 5 or 6 hours then did the pictures test and got my line.

Definitely positive from this mornings test!

For comparison, here's mine from 12dpo.
I'm now 12 weeks with twins!

Thanks for all the replies, I guess I'll just test again in the morning and see if it gets any darker 🙏🏻

NoWordForFluffy · 12/09/2017 10:38

A FRER is 10 miu and a digi 50 miu, that's why the FRER is positive and the digi not. Give it a day or so and the digi will show positive.

Congratulations!

Lenl · 12/09/2017 10:38

Looking at your latest one again it's a proper line that came up straight away - it has to be positive. Have my fingers and toes crossed for you that it gets darker. X

blueonblue · 12/09/2017 14:43

The last pic is fairly clear to me. I thought digital tests were less sensitive at picking up v early pregnancies?

BrutusMcDogface · 12/09/2017 14:48

Hmm, looks like a line to me....good luck for the morning Flowers

ChocolatePancake · 12/09/2017 18:34

I think it's a positive! And I know from recently uploading my pics that all pics come across as grey lines instead of pink coloured, when irl they're definitely pink. I can see the lines, and my FRER that are 4 days old (negative) haven't developed Evaps, nor have the 3/2 day old ones. It's a BFP imo - congratulations!
