Clear blue digital 3 lines?

[Allthingsgirlie]

Hi loves! I know you shouldn’t do this but I got so curious after seeing videos on social media. I took a clear blue digital weeks indicator that came up as ‘not pregnant’, I opened it and saw one dark line (control line) a faint line beside it and a faint line on the lower strip. I took three other tests (6 day early indicator) all negative. I’m currently 17 dpo and three days late on AF. On the 20th September I bled for approx 8 days, it was brown in colour with clumps at some point. I’m unsure as to whether it was implantation or a weird period… any advice? Do you guys know if clear blue always have three lines? Do you think it was implantation or a weird period? So confused!

4 tests all negative at 17 DPO would be highly unlikely to be false. I'd assume it's negative and you've just had a weird or delayed period.

It sounds like you had a chemical pregnancy. This is how my last period was. It was about 4 days late and I got a very faint positive on a cheapie test strip at 16DPO. I then had nasty cramps and clots.

You bled from 20-28 September and are 17dpo?
Or you bled 12-20 and are 17dpo? Either way, how long is your cycle? An 8 day bleed sounds like a period to me. I always pass clots on my period.

@PurBal from tracking my cycle I would have ovulated on the 15th September but actually started a bleed on the 20th which lasted about 8 days roughly. My cycle is generally 28 days (normally very on time) it just wasn’t the colour of a regular period, it wasn’t fresh red. It was dark almost coffee brown and small clots
