Thinner blue line, evap or faint positive?

Yesterday, at 6dpo, I did a pregnancy test (early I knowww) and it came back very faint but you could see the line.
anyway so today (7dpo) I did a clear blue 6 days early test this morning with fmu just to try and get a bit of a clearer view of it all and it has come back with a line but It seems to be a bit thinner, it’s definitely blue but I just can’t seem to believe it’s a positive.

I had some spotting yesterday at 6po which is what made me think I was pregnant as I never spot inbetween periods and the only time I have ever spotted was when I was in the early stages of pregnancy with my son.
PLZ let me know what you all think?

@mammabird000 looks positive to me, especially from two different tests. Very early! Possibly twins?!

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 09:20

@SnookyPook thank you for replying, I do think it looks positive the only thing that’s throwing me off is that it’s thinner than I would have thought, I did do a test yesterday day time after the positive and get a negative test but that could be due to it not being fmu I’m not sure x

This is the test, it’s dried properly now but something just looks a bit off to me hahaha

Clearblue are terrible for showing lines when negative. Get a decent pink dye test like frer or boots own early results. Although at 6dpo I would say it’s negative. The earliest the egg can implant is 6dpo but can take up to 12dpo. It then takes a few days for hcg to rise enough to show on a test. So either it’s negative or your dates are off. Would never trust a clearblue though. Good luck

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 13:16

@PickledScrump thank you, I have a blood test booked in for today anyway as I get positive and negative results quite often and the go confirms through blood test, as I got implantation bleeding (or so I think it was ib) yesterday, would any amount of hcg show up on a blood test and I’ve read and it says pregnancy can be detected from 7dpo through blood test.
I know I sound so irrational lol but this just drives me mental😂

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 13:16

That’s suppose to say the GP confirms.

Naomi2023 · 30/06/2023 13:58

I'd say that's an evap. I had an evap like that on the 6 day early and always have had evaps that show up very quickly on these tests x

KittyAllTheWay · 30/06/2023 15:19

How long after you did the test were the pics of the lines from?

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 15:29

@KittyAllTheWay the lines came up straight away but like I say they were thin to begin with so it just didn’t sit right with me. Like I say I’m only 7dpo so it still is stupidly early to test x

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 30/06/2023 15:34

Yeah it does seem early. I always thought evaps were like past the time window when it dried though and indents could be immediate but they’re colourless? I don’t know much on CB though (I know frer have AWFUL lines)

a frer today should be a solid positive though if these CBs show I’d think?

good luck!! Fingers crossed for you

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 15:59

@KittyAllTheWay honestly where I live I cannot find a frer anywhere😂 I will have to have a look on Amazon and order one or just wait a few more days and try again haha x

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 30/06/2023 16:02

Yeah they’re gone from my boots too. I swapped to boots early detection (almost as sensitive!) because I’d cried over so many stupid fake frer lines 🥲 so I’m wondering if they’re fixing something and that’s why they’re gone. Hopefully!!

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 16:04

@KittyAllTheWay yeah I’ve seen loads about them giving false hope to mums🥹 what do the boots ones look like? Are they pink dye or blue?x

OP posts:
mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 16:05

@KittyAllTheWay also so sorry you have been let down so many times by frer, are you ttc? X

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 30/06/2023 16:14

@mammabird000 boots are pink too. They’re 10 parts as opposed to more common 25 and frer 6, so really sensitive! And I’ve not had bad lines from them (despite mad scrutiny 😂)

yeah currently on like cycle 15 of TTC #2 after I lost twins last April. The road feels long and the 2ww madness is fully here yet again! 🙈🙈

will this be your first?

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 16:21

@KittyAllTheWay aww I’m really sorry to hear about your loss, the TWW is horrible isn’t it, how many dpo are you? And no I have a 1 year old boy x

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 30/06/2023 16:25

Thanks. Yeah we were so lucky the first time, but not so much now! How are you finding it the second time round? I think if anything I’m MORE mad 😂

I’m 6dpo 🙂

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 16:30

@KittyAllTheWay I don’t really know how I feel to be honest just a bit more confused, the first time round it was unexpected so there was no tww for me, this time round I’m constantly symptom spotting🫣 aw I’m 7dpo so not too far apart from eachother! X

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 30/06/2023 16:41

Picking apart every tiny change in how you feel 😂 when do you think you’ll test again? Do you have more in?

I’ll probably test in the morning because I may or may not have done a not-at-all-sensitive strip test with wee I’d only held for an hour this afternoon at 6dpo and then shone a torch at it for 5 minutes even though I knew it’ll be negative 😂🙈

so I’m sure I won’t resist in the morning!

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 17:01

@KittyAllTheWay I’m exactly the same with testing I have an excuse as to why I test early every time🤣 I’m going to wait a couple of days I think to try avoid confusion lmao, please update me with your test result tomorrow!! I have just been to the toilet and had quite a weird looking cm, do u mind if I attach a pic and you can tell me what u think hahahahs I’m just so unsure about everything😂

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 30/06/2023 18:48

@mammabird000 not at all! Overshare away, it’s what we‘re all here for!! 😀

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 19:50

It’s a bit tmi but I never have this kind of discharge either, I think I’m getting a bit carried away with symptom spotting!

Thinner blue line, evap or faint positive?
OP posts:
rainbowzebra05 · 30/06/2023 19:58

I found cb always have a darker thin strip to the positive result. I'd class this as an early positive but get a first response or boots own (I actually prefer these vs first response) to confirm.

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 20:16

@rainbowzebra05 thankyou for the reply, I will retest in a couple days and see what comes of it, thank you again x
