So confused, evap or too early

So I'm one of these ladies that likes to test as early as possible. I had read people getting their bfp as early as 9dpo and thought I'd try my luck yesterday. Straight away the faintest of lines came up, you have to REALLY look for it so I showed my DH and at first he said "you're just seeing things" but then he went "oh no, I do see something" and I asked him to show me where he thought the line was and he pointed exactly where I see it. I read last night that you can store your pee in a container and test it so this morning (10dpo) straight away I saved my first morning wee and went out and got a 6 days early clear blue came back straight away and tested it, I waited the 3 min then decided it was negative, made my breakfast and had the urge to look again and saw this line. I know you shouldn't look after 3 minutes but it was only about 5 minutes in total. I've read that evap lines are colourless and usually appear 10+ minutes after you've done the test when it's dried and this line is DEFINITELY blue and it had only been about 5 minutes. The photo isn't the best, my camera doesn't want to pick it up but I've shown two people who have both said they definitely see a blue line there. So confused

It's not a full line so it would be classed as negative. I never use cb due to having bad experiences with evaps.

Clear blue are absolutely horrendous for these sorts of lines. There’s loads of posts of people thinking they’re positive when they aren’t. Get a frer or a boots own early results test.

I think you’d have to read that as negative as it’s not a full line and it was read outside the time frame, albeit not by much. As a pp said CB are terrible for this sort of thing. BUT this test certainly doesn’t mean that you’re out, it’s still early and you could well get a true positive on a different brand. Good luck!

I wouldn’t count this as a positive unfortunately, looks more like a dodgy test which is common with CB

Thank you for all your responses. It was just a dodgey test, AF came very suddenly yesterday evening even though Im not due until Saturday, no warning just randomly started 😞 maybe next time
