Can anyone else see the faintest of lines here? I inverted the photo just to be sure...

I can see it 😀

Breannabruce · 29/09/2018 01:05

Really?!
How sure are you? 50%? 60% 80%?! As you can tell, I’m panicking here

fieryginger · 29/09/2018 01:11

I see a very faint line 😊

Breannabruce · 29/09/2018 01:17

Not just my eyes looking for one then?

OP posts:
peterpanwendy · 29/09/2018 01:18

I can see it too!

Breannabruce · 29/09/2018 01:20

Ohh 😧

Is this not good, OP?

Breannabruce · 29/09/2018 01:50

@justgivemeasoddingname I’m not sure what OP means, sorry! I’m a newbie here!
It’s not planned if it is a positive result. Far from it! I’m going to get another one first thing and retest. I’m now 6 days late, with pretty regular to the day +/-1 periods. My skin has gone really bad, headaches, bad stomach, back ache, really really tiredness all of the time. These could be symptoms of my period though so who knows! Maybe I’m worrying unnecessarily

I am 99% sure that's an evaporation line/false positive. How many days past ovulation are you? These tests are notorious for them.

Breannabruce · 29/09/2018 02:00

@wineandwhine if I’ve worked it out right then 12. I only realised as I’ve been using a period tracking app that I was late. Then my mind went wild 🙈

OP posts:
Breannabruce · 29/09/2018 02:01

It could all be wrong though, I’m not entirely sure! Everyday that passes without me updating my period arriving, my expected period date and “fertile window” moves on, so 12 days might be right as my period is 6 days late. Does that make sense?

wineandwhine · 29/09/2018 02:02

I'd buy a pink dye test like First Response Early Response. If you get a faint line on that one, fair enough. I've had so many false positives like yours and darker with these tests. FRER has yet to fail me.

Breannabruce · 29/09/2018 02:05

Thank you, settled my nerves a little! I’ll buy one first thing and keep you updated x

Took two different tests this morning. Definitely negative

Line or no line?! Help!!

Thesnobbymiddleclassone · 29/09/2018 11:32

Give it another 2 days to be sure. I thought mine was a negative and 2 days later still no period and a positive.

wineandwhine · 29/09/2018 11:41

I can see lines on both of those.

Lorddenning1 · 29/09/2018 11:48

Same I can see lines too

Breannabruce · 29/09/2018 12:04

@wineandwhine @lorddenning1 really? That photo was just after the 3 minute mark so it’s not an old result. I inverted it and I’m still sure it’s negative. What do you think?

Line or no line?! Help!!
OP posts:
Lorddenning1 · 29/09/2018 12:24

I can see one on then first picture
More clearly

wineandwhine · 29/09/2018 12:57

First one is absolutely positive. Second may be an indent. That's either one hell of a false positive or you need a tie breaker.

anitagreen · 29/09/2018 13:15

These are all positive tests ?

Breannabruce · 29/09/2018 13:16

I’ll wait until Monday or Tuesday and if there’s no sign, take another and see what happens. Because it’s not glaringly obvious I’m going with negative, as is my partner. But I don’t know!

OP posts:
SparklyMagpie · 29/09/2018 13:19

I can see a line on the first pink dye test and I think I can see the faintest on the second one.

I think give it a couple more days

Hope you get the result you want :)

saze4 · 29/09/2018 16:07

I can see a line in the first picture as well

Iscreamforbenandjerrys · 29/09/2018 16:12

I can see a hint of a pink line. Although if you are six days late I would have expected a stronger result considering squinters are usually tests taken before the period is actually due.
