Evap line limbo

overthinkersanonnymus · 06/11/2022 08:33

I need a reality slap please 🤦🏻‍♀️ I know this is an evap line as there's no colour and it came up after about 20 minutes but my little voice in my head keeps saying "maybe it's not"

I'm not due on until Wednesday and I've got quite bad cramps so I could come on even sooner. Please tell me what you think and be brutally honest x

Hey @overthinkersanonnymus I’ve never had an evap so dark but like you say if it was outside the time it could be. Do you have any different tests you could try in the morning? Wishing you luck! 💕

Palmface · 06/11/2022 08:47

That's a thick faint line right there, I would be considering that the start of your bfp. Good luck!!

peonyjam · 06/11/2022 08:55

I think that's quite clearly an early positive! I understand your caution as it is early but it is exactly what my tests looked like at first. X

overthinkersanonnymus · 06/11/2022 09:22

🤔 there's no colour to it though. I'll test again tomorrow and stay in limbo again today 😂😂 thanks for your replies ladies, I'll keep you posted xxx

Discard after the time so you don’t ever have to worry about evaps

overthinkersanonnymus · 06/11/2022 09:49

@ScrambledOrPoached I know, I was so naughty!!

Who really does that though? 🤣 I know most people, even on here, scrutinise them for an hour after lol.

I do think it's an evap as there's no colour in it. Different pic below with the flash on

There is colour to it though

babynoname22 · 06/11/2022 10:22

I think this is a bfp. I would try and get a frer today or tomorrow

Mortima · 06/11/2022 10:45

I think evap lines tend to be quite skinny? I think there's a hint of colour too.

I would also try and get a FRER today - if it's a positive showing up on a cheapie strip test then I would think you would get a positive on a FRER even if it's not FMU. Good luck!

ChickinMarango · 06/11/2022 10:54

Way better than my first bfp with my second. A FRER should confirm it :)

overthinkersanonnymus · 06/11/2022 11:01

I'm in work all day today so shops will be shut when I leave but I'll get an FRER tomorrow and do a couple more cheepies tonight.

Feel a bit nauseous but that's probably nerves

And I won't read it after 5 minutes 😂

That looks like a positive to me!! Def a faint line with colour. I’ve never had an evap that looked like that!

sarahc336 · 06/11/2022 11:05

It looks pink to me with the flash on x

overthinkersanonnymus · 06/11/2022 18:05

Definitely an evap. Just done another test (and read within the time frame) and it's negative

Thanks for all trying to be positive for me today girls x

It to her your hopes up but I would test again with FMU in the morning. An evening wee won't be as strong

overthinkersanonnymus · 06/11/2022 19:43

@babynoname22 I know what you mean but, the evap line test was taken yesterday evening so I'd think this evening would show something if too if it was a true positive

To be honest I think maybe it was a genuine bfp but not stuck and if it was, this is the furthest I've ever got. I've had period pains since last night so I just have to wait till next month and try again 🙂

I am in a similar boat! Have been testing with FRER. These lines came up within the 3 minutes but this is 11 and 12 dpo and I think they are getting lighter? The 11dpo one was blaringly pink but now I'm doubting myself and wondering if they are indents?

That'll teach me to test early

Hi, if these are like the standard tests then you need two lines to show up for pregnancy. There is only one line on each of the tests in your picture.

Lulie77777 · 07/11/2022 07:40

I've been ttc for 4 years I know how pregnancy tests work lol. I'm talking about the faint lines next to the control lines.

overthinkersanonnymus · 07/11/2022 09:36

Right I'm fully clutching at straws here and faffing about with filters on tests (which I know is stupid) is there a shadow on this or are my eye balls scarred from the line stress 😂😂

Reality slap needed please!

@overthinkersanonnymus I can see what you see, but for yourself, step away from the test!

How many DPO are you? Is it worth getting a frer for a clear answer? I’ve had lots of evaps and indents on cheapy strips so maybe a better test will put your mind at ease? X

overthinkersanonnymus · 07/11/2022 09:57

@thelma57 thank you!! I absolutely do need to step away from the test 🤣🤣 I'm 12dpo

I just want AF to start now so I can stop obsessing!!
