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?

I don’t remember having anything similar but probably anything new is a good sign! Any other symptoms?

mammabird000 · 30/06/2023 20:56

@KittyAllTheWay I haven’t had any symptoms as such, just some slight spotting and then that discharge, but they’re both symptoms I’ve never had before x

mammabird000 · 01/07/2023 08:06

Did you manage to restrain? Honestly kudos to you because you’re stronger than me 😂🙈 I’d be like 4 tests down by now!

yeah it’s too early tell but I’m a fool 🥲🥲

mammabird000 · 01/07/2023 10:09

@KittyAllTheWay I haven’t tested today, I’m 8dpo, so I’m going to hold on and try test at 12po!!! It’s so bloody hard but I’d rather wait and save the confusion😂 I’m usually terrible but the more I test the more I get line eyes and I imagine things😂I’ll update you when I have done it!!! X

@KittyAllTheWay i have checked my cervix just because I’m obsessed with symptom spotting, and it is extremely high today and like tucked under so really hard to reach (sorry if tmi) and is also very soft, is that a sign as I have never checked my cervix before?

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 01/07/2023 19:50

Oh you’re doing so well not testing! I’ve no idea if that’s a symptom or not but it sounds plausible? I’ve never checked mine but I know it’s not supposed to be all soft and open!

mammabird000 · 01/07/2023 21:45

@KittyAllTheWay I read that when your pregnant or have a fertile cervix it’s suppose to be high and soft, and a short and firm cervix is an infertile cervix, fingers crossed but we will see!!! I might do a test tomorrow at 9dpo but I know it will probably be bfn!

KittyAllTheWay · 02/07/2023 06:59

@mammabird000 ah that makes sense! Let me know how it goes 👀

mine was unsurprisingly again a bfn 😂🙈

Tryingfornumbertwo2 · 02/07/2023 21:43

Jumping in on this post as we are similar days post ovulation. I think I’m 7dpo, yesterday and today I have felt so tired, but definitely symptom picking! So hard to refrain from testing 🙃

KittyAllTheWay · 03/07/2023 07:41

@mammabird000 how are you getting on? 🙂

mammabird000 · 03/07/2023 10:00

@KittyAllTheWay I caved and did a test today lol 11dpo according to my app, I feel like I can see a shadow of a line but I’m not sure hahah, I’m going to try my best to hold out until Thursday, hopefully by then hcg will have chance to properly build up (if there is any😂).

I’ve got some mild cramping in my stomach right now, since I got up this morning. Hopefully it’s a good sign but who knows!
how are you getting on??? X

mammabird000 · 03/07/2023 10:02

@Tryingfornumbertwo2 hi!!! Hope you are okay? I am 11dpo now according to my app, have you got any symptoms that stand out other than tiredness, it’s so hard when your so early on, everything seems like a symptom! I would defo try stop yourself from testing but I can’t say much because I tested 6dpo😂😂 it wasn’t worth it though as it just causes confusion!!! When do you think you will test? X

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 03/07/2023 10:11

Do you want to show us and see if we can see it too? 👀 fingers still firmly crossed for you!!

hi @Tryingfornumbertwo2 ah the symptom spotting is so hard! 🙈 when do you think you’ll test?

mammabird000 · 03/07/2023 10:14

@KittyAllTheWay i haven’t got the test with me at the moment I’m at work, but I might end up caving tomorrow and doing another😂🫣it’s so hard, have you tested again?

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 03/07/2023 10:25

@mammabird000 lol yeah every day. BFN every time! Even taking apart the test and holding a torch to it in the most lunatic way 😂🙈 nada! I think I’m 9dpo today

mammabird000 · 03/07/2023 10:30

I’m exactly the same @KittyAllTheWay !!!😂😂 I’m ripping the test apart standing on one leg on a chair holding it right up to the light😂😂 bloody ridiculous isn’t it😂😂 hopefully with a few more days you might start to see something as you are still early don’t count yourself out yet!! It’s so stressful honestly I think the closer you get to being like 12/13dpo the more you expect to see a line but forget that then couple days make such a big difference😂 I hate it lol x

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 03/07/2023 10:45

@mammabird000 oh I’m so glad im not alone!! 😂😂 my husband gives me the strangest looks like I’ve totally lost it lol but I keep checking as if the line might magically appear! Bloody daft really but I can’t help myself lol

yeah we’re still early. A few more days of hope for us 🥰

Tryingfornumbertwo2 · 03/07/2023 10:46

@KittyAllTheWay im so tempted to test today, but think it is just to early?

Tryingfornumbertwo2 · 03/07/2023 10:48

@mammabird000 @KittyAllTheWay what are your go to test brands to use?

KittyAllTheWay · 03/07/2023 10:50

@Tryingfornumbertwo2 yeah logically and realistically it’s way too early lol I still did but that doesn’t mean it’s a good idea 😂

mammabird000 · 03/07/2023 11:43

So quick question guys help!!!

I took this test and after 3 mins the dye was kind of everywhere, so I left it and looked at it like an hour later but this looks way too dark to me to be an evap what do you all think??? @KittyAllTheWay @Tryingfornumbertwo2

Thinner blue line, evap or faint positive?
OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 03/07/2023 11:50

@mammabird000 omg I dunno I think it does look positive lol I would say an early detection test would probs show with a wee from the middle of the day with a few hours hold though, so maybe nip to boots and get another and see? It looks promising!

I’ve never seen one with the dye everywhere though

mammabird000 · 03/07/2023 11:51

But also, as u can see there is a like splodge in the middle so I’m not sure, the line is completely pink and the exact same thickness but like I say, it was looked at completely out of the time window.
