Question for anyone who has ever done a clearblue (non digital test) be it + or -

[Oopsandoopsagain]

Tested this morning and Im not sure of the results.

The line going agross that was 'negative' was bright blue and made up of 2 rows of blue spots like this ...

:::::::::::::::::::::::::

But going down there was a line but didnt have colour to it was just a greyish line.

So if you have done a test and it was negative - did yours have this line?

Im thinking it may just be a line thats there for the blue dye to go on if you are pregnant.

Or for the test to have a negative result does the rest of the screen have to be completely balnk. Does this line mean anything?

TIA, O&OA

Is the test in date? Did you read the result within 10 minutes? I've had both +ve and -ve clearblue tests. The negative spots are normal but there isn't a line like this for the positive part of the cross. If you have allowed the test to fully develop and have read it within 10 minutes, it sounds more like a feint positive. Try testing again tomorrow morning using another clearblue. Good luck!

yes within 10 minutes and the test is in date.

Ive actully sone a few over the last few days and not been sure of the results.

I did this one and thought Oh! FFS! when i looked at 2 mins because i just wanted it to be negative, with a pure white background so i can get on with my life

But with each test theres a line but it not colured and i just think ALL tests must have this faint line, its where thepositive goes if you ARE pregnant, where the dye soaks ina nd Im just looking t it too closesly

I have seen that grey line on a negative test, but it took a while to come out, it wasn't immediate. I'd wait and then test again to be sure.

Get a digital - so much easier, no more squinting at lines...

FWIW, the cycle I got pg withthe twins, I did about 3 clarblue normal tests and one was completely neg, one had an evap line AFTER the 10 mins was up and one didn't work at all - no control line or anything. I gave up then caved in and bought a digi which immediately said pg. Wish I'd just done taht in first place...

I believe your hormone levels double every two days during pg and the first urine of the day is the most concentrated with HCG. So, maybe wait a couple of days and test again in the morning. If you're still not sure, maybe go to your GP and get them to test.

hi, oopsandoopsagain, did you do another test?
