FRER - faint line - is this positive?

Hello ladies,

I'm pretty new to this game and would like your help. What do you think - is this positive?

Yesterday, I took a test first thing, I didn't wait a full 5 mins but it looked negative so I threw it away. Had a peek later and there was a faint line. Waited until first thing this morning, tested again and another faint line! I've read a lot about false positives with FRER and I'm going to get more tests when the shops open but thought I'd see what you think! I'm due on in 3 days.

I'm nearly 35 and have PCOS so I didn't think it would happen easily, so don't quite believe it!

Aww congrat I defo see a line ♥️

NoWordForFluffy · 11/09/2022 08:03

That's not a faint line! Congratulations!

Violet238 · 11/09/2022 13:11

Ooh thank you, I hope so 🙏
I'm being too impatient and took a Boots early detection test and it looks negative, but it wasn't first thing and I've read they aren't as sensitive, so I'll just have to wait!
Thank you and good luck to you all ❤️

@Violet238 how are you getting on?
I’ve today taken a frer and it very much looks like yours…

Anon778833 · 13/09/2022 17:53

Definitely a positive!

Violet238 · 13/09/2022 18:27

Well I did another Boots test yesterday morning and it was a darker line!
I'm due on tomorrow...I've just bought a Clearblue digital, I feel like I need to see it in words before I believe it, eek!
Good luck @blueeyed92

Thank you @blueeyed92, I'm over the moon as I wasn't sure it would ever happen but also so overwhelming, things are about to get real 😁

Hurray, that is definitely darker! Ooh congratulations 🎉

Would anyone class this as positive? I don't know what to think... its very much blue and there, just not a complete line 🥺

blueeyed92 · 15/09/2022 06:49

@anon1411 i don’t have any experience with the blue dye tests, I would recommend you do another one incase it is due run. From my experience you should be able to see a complete line, even if it was very faint. I have seen the other ladies here only recommending pink dye ones, the first response 6 days early ones (frer) are the most sensitive.
Good luck 💫 xx

blueeyed92 · 15/09/2022 06:49

@anon1411 *dye run

anon1411 · 15/09/2022 07:17

Yeah I have heard about blue dye tests do thats why I'm a bit unsure... I did take a frer not long after but it is like the faintest line ever. It did have a slight pink tinge to it but again I'm just not sure. I changed it to black and white purely because my camera quality is rubbish so didn't pick it up due to lighting etc.. let me know what you think 🌟

@anon1411 sorry but that line is in the completely wrong place

blueeyed92 · 15/09/2022 08:32

@anon1411 how many dpo are you? I would wait to retest in a few days and that way you should have a good comparison 💫

anon1411 · 15/09/2022 18:30

sausageandbeansx · 15/09/2022 07:53

@anon1411 sorry but that line is in the completely wrong place

I do agree as I thought that myself but with it being quite distinct I wasn't sure if sometimes this happens? 🤷‍♀️ I have heard from friends in the past of their test lines being closer together but have actually been BFP. I am going to test again tomorrow that way its been a good 5 days so I will know for sure then no doubt

I'm not actually sure, I don't track anything like that and I have extremely irregular periods so I have no idea 🤦🏼‍♀️ which is frustrating at times as I don't have alot to work from 😅

I did have bad cramps and twinges Tuesday of last week which made me think Implantation Bleeding as it was nothing like I get with periods.xx

@anon1411 how many dpo are you? I would wait to retest in a few days and that way you should have a good comparison 💫

So I managed to work out a few dates which may help you help me me figure this all out 😅

20th August- Horrendous Cramps
07th Sept- Pink Spotting for 24 hours
09th Sept- Took the Clearblue test
10th Sept- Took the FRER test
