Hi guys

Me and my partner have been trying for a baby for about 4 months. I've done a few tests in previous months with clear blue and always seen a vv faint line but I think it's always been an evap line.

I am due on my period in 2 days but have been getting symptoms such as slight twinges in my stomach, really achy boobs and feeling a bit emotional. I decided to do a test this morning and a line appeared after about 2 mins. Does this look like a positive? I used first response as I heard they were more reliable than clear blue.

The pic is taken about 30 mins after the test but the line has been the same since it started showing after 2 mins of doing it. Not going to get my hopes up but just want to know your opinions so that I can be more careful - I have a crazy dog who likes to jump around a lot!

Thanks Smile

I should add that the line is a bit more pronounced in real life and looks more pink than grey

@bages1977 I can definitely see a line, I have had an evap from first response before when I looked at the test after half an hour but it had no colour it was just grey. So if it has colour I would say it's positive x

I see a line, but as you’ve had issues with read lines before I would probably wait until you’re due on then confirm with a digital!

Ok thank you guys. It's such a frustrating time waiting isn't it. I have a digital Clear Blue one also and some of the cheap Boots testing strips. Maybe I'll wait a couple of days and try the Boots strips then if that shows a line I'll go for the plunge with the digital.

I'll just be strict with the dog for now as a precaution 😂

That can't be an evap it's way too obvious... I'd say positive!

bages1977 · 17/03/2021 14:35

Yeah it does seem darker than the ones I've had in the past! I'll do another on Friday or Saturday and see what happens x

This is probably a clearer picture of it taken at the same time
