I know there's a million of these but...

Hi lovely people in my phone! Ok so I'm 42, mum to 2 amazing kids (10 and 12), very happily married and finally in a job I love.
We're not actively trying but we do dtd most nights.
The other day I'd noticed I'm more irritable lately and when I've been shopping (this'll sound ridiculous) I've noticed the scents in the laundry aisle more than ever. I know that sounds odd but it's something I remember from my second pregnancy, that the laundry aisle of the supermarket smelled absolutely bloody incredible beyond what it normally does. I'm also absolutely knackered but that could be due to the hot weather at the moment I guess?
I know I'm also peri menopausal though so maybe could be that.

Anyway- I asked hubby to pick me up a test to put my mind at rest and I've just taken it. He's out with our daughter just now and I'm sitting trying to decide if I can see a second line or if I'm imagining one because I'm overthinking.
There was the very faintest pink line to begin with as it developed but I think it's vanished now? Or am I going round the twist?

I can't see anything..

@Whereland thank you for replying so quickly! It is definitely clearer in real life than the photo but it could be an evap line. I took 13 pics to try and show it 😄
Though I'm thinking if it's that tricky to show in a pic then maybe it's not there lol

@windowof can't see it either. Maybe try again tomorrow x

@CR7 thank you. You're putting my mind at rest and that helps a lot. It's a 2-pack of tests so I'll keep the other one and do it in a couple of days but I think you and the other poster are correct and it's in my imagination. Feeling calmer!

Sounds like a good plan. And do it with your first wee of the day x

@CR7 I will 😁 Thank you again!

I must be the only one that can see it! Definitely keep us updated, to me I see a line

@Ems1992 at least this makes me feel a little less crazy 😄 I felt so sure I could see something when I posted but now I've no idea if I can or if it's my imagination.
It can be so tricky since phone screens probably show it differently too.
I'll definitely take the other test in a couple of days and keep you posted.

I can't see anything. You say you're dtd most nights - are you using contraception?

I can see it but can’t tell if that’s indent or a faint line x

Fair question! I have the mirena although it's very close to expiry at this point.
I hadn't realised until a week ago or so when I noticed I was feeling some symptoms.

That's exactly where I'm at too. It definitely was light pink but doesn't show as pink on the photo.

I can see a shadow of a line, but if it's vanished then it might just be where the line would have been? I would test again

Thank you, yes shadow of a line is a good description of it!

Can definitely see something maybe try a different brand test.

Thank you. I'll try to give it a few days then re-test. It's hard not to just go do the other test right away but resisting that urge cos it'll probably be the same and I won't be able to tell 😄

i can see something

I can see something too... let us know how you get on OP.

There’s definitely something there but hard to tell whether positive or evap

Just in case anyone wanted an update, I tested again this morning and it's negative.
Thank you again for all the replies and for taking the time to read my post.

So sorry @windowof xx

Thank you. Just not meant to be, and probably for the best as I don't have very healthy pregnancies really. I'll cuddle the two children that I have and count my blessings ❤️

@windowof a lovely and graceful way to look at things x
