I'm so sorry, I don't see anything there. How many dpo are you?

FairfaxAikman · 15/12/2017 08:48

I might see the fainted of faint squint ears in the first, but absolutely nothing in the second.

I'd test again in a few days to be sure either way.

FairfaxAikman · 15/12/2017 08:48

*lines!

haveacupoftea · 15/12/2017 08:49

Yeah I can see that. It's hard to capture those very early lines on camera. Shine the torch of your phone behind the test window and you'll see it clearly

chocolateorangeowls · 15/12/2017 08:51

Personally I can't see anything, sorry 🙁 Have you missed a period? I had a weak but obvious line with FRER at 9dpo with both my pregnancies. I'd test again tomorrow and see what it looks like.

What a lovely bday present for your DH if it is a line Grin

ClondawWarrior · 15/12/2017 08:56

Thank you, so try pulling it apart do you mean?

haveacupoftea · 15/12/2017 09:18

No definitely don't pull apart. Just shine a light behind the part with the lines

SydBound27 · 15/12/2017 09:28

I zoomed in and can see a second line. Exciting!

passemoilevin · 15/12/2017 09:34

Can definitely see a line when zoomed Grin

ClondawWarrior · 15/12/2017 09:38

Oh my gosh! The light thing worked!!!!

Thank you!!!!!

Hi OP. I've just tested today and got the exact same result! I shone my phone torch behind it and can see it clearly!
I have tested 6 days early with one of those very sensitive tests. I'm just trying not to build up my hopes too much but st the same time I'm a bit giddy!

ClondawWarrior · 15/12/2017 09:51

@LongWavyHair tentative congratulations!
I feel exactly the same!!

OP posts:
LongWavyHair · 15/12/2017 09:55

Thankyou! Congratulations to you too! 🙂
When are you due? 29th August for me! God I hope this is the real deal!

haveacupoftea · 15/12/2017 10:00

Glad to help! I sat with my phone torch too when I got my BFP at 10 dpo with a FRER Grin congratulations to you both

ClondawWarrior · 15/12/2017 10:05

I haven't got a clue I'm 9dpo I'll work it out

SydBound27 · 15/12/2017 10:54

@haveacupoftea do you know whether the torch trick works on tests done after the proper waiting time? I thought I saw a line on my IC this morning and only this afternoon (I'm in Australia, it's night time now) did I shine the light behind. There's a definite line there but concerned it might be an evap or something. What do you reckon?

ClondawWarrior · 15/12/2017 10:56

I've done another :-)

Mind that isn’t the plastic behind the test window. That’s caught me out before...

ClondawWarrior · 15/12/2017 11:49

I'll check it thank you

OP posts:
LongWavyHair · 15/12/2017 12:23

Mine are very faint. I did one this morning and one just now. I'm worried they are evap lines!

Have I got a faint positive?
haveacupoftea · 15/12/2017 12:30

@SydBound27 I would think that's an evap after sitting out all day sorry...I'm not a fan of ICs. With a FRER you either know or you don't. If you get a positive on a FRER at say 9am it'll be very clearly positive later that day/next day because they are so so sensitive and reliable.

haveacupoftea · 15/12/2017 12:31

@LongWavyHair definitely not evaps

user1500124076 · 15/12/2017 12:36

I think that's the plastic showing up as a line there. That happened to me every month.

Emmastone123 · 15/12/2017 13:06

I think I can see a line. I had this and the next day it was a bit darker but it then went and I got my period. I think in my case it must have been a chemical because apparently frer don't do evaps and a line is a line. I really hope it is for you but please try not to get hopes up. I did and was devastated when period arrived. Wishing you lots of luck Flowers

Peanutty86 · 15/12/2017 13:17

I've never heard about Evap lines or plastic showing through on FRERs.
Both of you, @ClondawWarrior and @LongWavyHair look like you have positive tests in your hand! Mine looked like this on 10DPO, I'm 11 weeks now. Congratulations!
