Chemical pregnancy

5 days ago I got a very faint pink line on a couple of internet cheapies. I've taken a FRER and Sainsbury's test but both of those came back negative (the Sainsbury's one did have a faint blue line but it was after the 10 minutes). I've just tried another cheapie test and there is a very, very faint pink line again but no stronger than the one from 5 days ago. Does it sound like it could have been a chemical pregnancy?

It sounds like you're pregnant tbh

@Sizeofalentil I wouldn't know how to date myself as I haven't had a bleed yet since stopping the pill, but my concern is that the line hasn't got any darker over 5 days?

@Crazymummyto3 in the same boat!

@wannabemummy123 It's so frustrating isn't it?!

@Crazymummyto3 100%. Feel like I'm going nuts. I'm suing different brands aswell but it's still there. CB and FRER are negative though

You could have a bad batch of cheapies.

I'm sorry to say that if the frer is not positive then you're not pregnant.

It's not necessarily a chemical

Can you post pictures of the tests?

Some cheapies don't have a lot of dye so don't have the ability to get much darker.

I once got a faint line when I had a uti- which is apparently rare but does happen
