Silly Question FRER

11 replies

So... I have a silly question about FRER....

Can you see the indent line on a FRER? I'm convinced I could see an indent line today which I have never seen before. I'm going to test again in a few days just in case it was a squinter.

I've never seen one. For me the faintest of faint lines turned out positive after a few days. (But I was serial tester)

I've had an indent on a frer. It was very very slightly off centre though - not completely symmetrical to the control line iyswim.

I have been looking for this answer all day! Did a frer this morning and same thing happened to me, not dark enough to call it a line but can see something there! Let me know how you get on xx

@jellybeans81 how did you get on xx

Yes, I've seen indents on FRERs. They are really obvious though because they're not where you would expect the positive line to be - it's sort of off to the side a bit. You can also tell an indent because a positive is pink and an indent can be grey or super white. Good luck!

Jellybeans I was convinced on Friday I could see an indent on firstresponse. I was so sure it was a line I used the other one in the box to see if it would make me any more pregnant and that was a stark bfn. Today I got an unmistakable bfp so I don't know now if Friday was just a squinter or not or an actual indent or what. It was like when the wee was moving across the test I could see it fill up and a line but then nothing.. Fingers crossed for you

I’ve got an indent on a frer today. It’s dried and well outside the time now and half the time I look at it it has colour and half the time it’s grey. I’ve never had indents before - the last line I had on one that was an indent turned into a positive 3 days later. So I’m on the fence

I got an indent with a frer 3 months ago - still not pregnant. I Googled it at the time and it's very common.

Haven't retested yet ladies but going to pick up another FRER tomorrow for over the weekend. If there's any news I will let you all know. On reflection I think Sunday was definitely an indent line so not holding out much hope x
