Positive clear blue, negative first response?

Hi can anyone help,
I am two days late and yesterday I got what I thought was a positive clear blue, so today I bought a first response, but this appears to be negative. Any ideas ? Am I pregnant?

Can definitely see a positive in the first one, perhaps wait another day 2 or take a digital? 🤞🏼 x

Blue dyes are notorious for false positives.

I’d give it another day or two and use another first response.

Is the first response and early response or a rapid response? There are two varieties in almost identical packages. The rapid response is Far less sensitive than any other pregnancy test.

Looks like a positive on the clear blue test, did you use first morning urine for the first response test?, tends to have more concentrated hormones. X

Do u have any ovulation sticks lying about? They pick up on the pregnancy hormone. That's how I found out x

I used fmu with the clear blue, but then the first response I did this afternoon after work, although my urine was quite dark as I'd hardly drank anything. I have another one I can use in the morning. But the clear blue looks blue rather than grey so that's what I am thinking is it positive? And I am never late!

If it's an frer I'd expect the line to be stronger but I can see a line on it. Blue tests do give false positives but they're usually a thin line off centre, that looks pretty positive to me. Hmmmmmm

Yeah who knows! Will just have to try again tomorrow

As a PP said, which first response test do you have?
There are two types:

First response early response, which is the type that picks up before you miss your period (sensitivity is 6.5mlu)

First response rapid result, which is far less sensitive and picks up a result after you’ve missed your period (sensitivity is 100mlu)

I think you must be pregnant. Please do update tomorrow!

Darkstar4855 · 06/11/2018 23:24

Was the Clear Blue one an early result test?

I agree trying an FRER with first morning urine would be the next step.

FrangelicoCandyBoughs · 06/11/2018 23:31

I can see a really faint line on FRER

endofacentury · 07/11/2018 06:53

I've just done another frer, think I can see a really faint line but not sure?
I have pcos so never sure if I ovulate or if I do at all it's normally late, maybe this is why I still have no period and no positive test?'

I can’t see anything on your latest test, sorry.

FrangelicoCandyBoughs · 07/11/2018 08:04

I can see something in your new test, but really faint

Sexnotgender · 07/11/2018 08:05

I’m usually pretty good at spotting lines on FRER but can’t see anything on your latest one. Sorry.

zaralouise · 07/11/2018 08:38

Hi I’m currently in limbo as I’ve had 2 negative first response tests at 13dpo and a negative Clearblue rapid detection, I did a Clearblue digital this morning (14 dpo) and I’m 3 days away from my period, but still negative, however I opened up the inside and there’s clearly two lines? I’m not sure how to add a photo to my post so if someone could tell me I’ll attatch pictures? Just wondering if anyone could help

RLOU30 · 07/11/2018 11:27

If it’s the clear blue easy read test (with diamond shaped control box) all mine come out like a positive before I was actually pregnant. I once got my partner to wee on it and it come out with a blue centered line. They should be recalled

zaralouise · 07/11/2018 11:44

it was a Clearblue digital, I got a negative result in the window but took it apart straight away and there was clearly 2 lines on the test,

Tattandthis · 07/11/2018 11:46

Fingers crossed for you x

zaralouise · 07/11/2018 11:48

Thank you x

RLOU30 · 07/11/2018 12:05

Sorry Zaralouise, my reply was aimed at the OP. Perhaps you would be better starting your own thread for more of a response. If you are a new member you will not be able to post photos straight away.

costacoffeecup · 07/11/2018 18:11

@zaralouise if it was a clear blue weeks indicator clear blue there are always two lines even if not pregnant
