I've only used these at 12dpo. Anything else feels like burning £5 notes. 3/5 times I've used them I've got a very faint second line within 3 mins. You can always barely see it (I'll attach a photo, but it's even harder there). The first time I got one I thought I was pregnant and then my period came. This time I'm pretty sure I'm not pregnant as I can feel my period on it's way. Does this happen to anyone else? I thought these tests were supposed to be good but then I end up trying to work out if the second line is pink enough rather than visible or not. That or wondering if I'm having repeated chemicals

I normally can't see faint lines on the photos posted here, but when I zoomed in on yours, I could see something. My FRERs were always stark white when I wasn't pregnant, so I was intrigued. Used the Lightbox to invert the colours and

I think it's there! I hate to get people's hopes up but I know how lonely it can feel when you see a line and nobody else can. It's so faint, I can't see if there's any colour to it. I would test again in a couple of days.
In terms of chemicals, they are very common, more common that we thought before the super early testing was a thing! I don't know if you've had chemicals, I suppose there's no way to definitively tell at this point, but even if you did, you're not alone and they are not uncommon. One study found that only 40% of fertilised eggs complete implantation.
Fingers crossed you get a BFP and a strong, sticky bean this cycle! 🤞🏼 🧚🏼‍♀️

Oh wow you can defo see it on your invert. Thanks so much for looking in that much detail! 🤗☺️ I keep wondering if I'm going crazy imaging it or if other people are just better at recognising what counts as a line or not. It's happened to me once before so I won't get my hopes up too much as it's so faint. There's always hoping though.

I'm waiting to get a small fibroid removed too so I guess if this one's not sticky it would still be good news that I can get to this point and once I have the fibroid sorted I'd have a really good chance!
