Has anyone ever had a FRER second line so faint it was almost invisible?

...and if so, did you turn out to be pregnant?

2 days ago I took a cheap dip strip test and a faint line did appear almost immediately but I was doubtful as I wasn't sure if it was in the right place (first dip test ever). Will attach a photo.

This morning did a FRER normal test and at 3 minutes I could see a line so faint it was almost invisible. Tried to take a pic but couldn't get it to show up. I've chucked it away as I was driving myself mad thinking I must be imagining the second line.

Background I gave birth April 2, had a period in May and June, not had one since.

Is it even worth re-testing at all?

Sorry I don't see anything.

I see the line you're referring to but I don't think it's in the right place.

Do you have a pic of the frer?

Sayneii · 10/08/2019 17:21

I see the line x

Nabana · 10/08/2019 19:20

Thanks for the replies x

I don't have a pic as I couldn't catch the line on them so I deleted them all. I know it means nothing but a few hours later I took the FRER apart (yes I rummaged through the nappy bin for it!!) and the line has dried a definite pink (it was so faint before it was kind of pinky grey). But that could be an evap I guess?

Lines appear on FRER when you take them apart as they aren't designed to have the test strip exposed to the air

Shine a torch light off phone through the back next time if something is there even if really faint you should be able to see it better

I understand your frustration and I’ve realised on there forums that a lot of women attach other women out of jealousy and whatever other reason they have, I point blank see that line and I think you should just wait a few days and take another test again, I wish you the best of luck x

@Sayneii no one on this thread has attacked the op or anyone else.

Maybe on other threads but not this one.

The op has asked a question and people have given their opinions like yourself has just done.

Perhaps you're frustrated over something you've read on another thread but this isn't the one to react on.

Yes. He’s 2 and a half now...

Can you get a Superdrug own brand one? They’re the earliest ones.

Monday55 · 11/08/2019 04:09

I see a line but it's very thin.

Nabana · 11/08/2019 08:20

Thank you all x

I want to get a superdrug one because lots of other people have said they're really good too. And maybe another FRER to compare to my original FRER. Unfortunately I'm quite poorly today and have barely slept lately so the thought of getting me and bub ready to go out is painful lol. Will def keep you all updated x
