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?

if you wait til your period is due you would save yourself a lot of stress. A lot of pregnancy ends early which is why they say don’t test til after your period is due.
it is attention seeking IMO. If you need support speak to your partner 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

@Glitterstars perhaps coming to comment on a post where someone was taking some small glimmers of happiness in a very anxious time could be seen as attention seeking? 🙂

you didn’t HAVE to comment, you could’ve just ignored the thread if it’s not what you’d have done. You don’t have to be mean to people

mammabird000 · 04/07/2023 22:34

@KittyAllTheWay how is your testing going? any update???🥰🥰

@mammabird000 nada! I did one yesterday (boots) and nothing lol I did a strip test today as it’s all I’ve got left and also nothing. I’m like 11dpo so I think i’m out this month 🥲

mammabird000 · 05/07/2023 07:41

@KittyAllTheWay youre not out until af comes!!!! I am finding that tests taken with my FMU are much much fainter (barely there) than at other parts of the day! Have you only been using fmu?? Also is that normal for flu tests to be basically negative but other times of the day they are darker? Xx

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 05/07/2023 08:58

@mammabird000 im sorry I know you probably don’t mean a flu test but I can’t guess what you did mean 🙈🙈

yeah using fmu. Strip tests aren’t sensitive but I’m not holding much hope! The boots yesterday was BLANK and they’re pretty sensitive 😂 ah well! Onto the next month lol

mammabird000 · 05/07/2023 10:47

@KittyAllTheWay Sorry I meant to say can it be normal that FMU tests are very faint and then tests taken at other times if the day to be darker, as that’s the case with me at the moment!!

your very strong to not get too disheartened by it, how long did you say you had been ttc? Xxx

OP posts:
KittyAllTheWay · 05/07/2023 11:51

@mammabird000 ahhhh I see what you mean! Yeah I have heard fmu is strongest but also women say their evening tests were strongest so not really too sure! I don’t think it’s too weird, thankfully.

after our mc this is cycle 14 🥲 so a good while. But only 2 months before we caught with the twins we lost. I didn’t expect it to take this long 🙈 but that’s life I guess!

mammabird000 · 05/07/2023 13:13

@KittyAllTheWay Oh I’m really sorry about your losses❤️Fingers crossed for you that you get your baby soon enough♥️♥️♥️

@KittyAllTheWay implantation window is up to 12dpo so if you've not implanted yet or only I'm the last day or so, HCG might not be detectable yet... 🤞🏻 With both my pregnancies I didn't test until day after AF didn't show (15dpo) and both were squinters! So I think I must be someone whose HCG starts quite low - there is a whole range of 'normal'. I highly suspect with both mine if I'd tested at 11/12dpo I probably wouldn't have seen anything. So... I'll keep hopeful on your behalf! Not out until AF shows!

7dpo here and entering the most difficult and symptom spotting phase of the tww...!!

KittyAllTheWay · 05/07/2023 13:21

@mammabird000 thanks lovely ♥️

@SnookyPook ooh that does still give me some hope then! I’m like 5 days from my period now I think so still a way off but I got my peak early this time. I’ll still keep testing 😂 when you will start do you think? 👀

SnookyPook · 05/07/2023 13:45

@KittyAllTheWay I'm a boring "wait for AF" type so haven't ever tested early! That said, another week to wait... 😩 However after a MMC in April I'm a bit wary around the whole thing tbh. Not wanting to get hopes up etc. Not stopping me from manically symptom spotting though!

So sorry for your loss too. ❤️

KittyAllTheWay · 05/07/2023 13:48

@SnookyPook its so hard isn’t it? Sorry you’ve been there too. Well one more week! It’ll fly by (such a lie, it’ll drag lol but hopefully worth it!)

I get why you’re nervous, it’s all so daunting

mammabird000 · 05/07/2023 15:05

@SnookyPook @KittyAllTheWay i have my fingers so firmly crossed for both of you, everybody deserves to have their baby and by the sounds of you both, yous will be the most amazing parents one day♥️

After all the confusing negative and positive tests I have had the past few days, this fully confirmed it🤍

Thinner blue line, evap or faint positive?

@mammabird000 yay! Congrats! Nothing beats seeing it written clearly on a digital! 😃

And thanks for your kind words. Got a 2yr old DS already but a little sibling for him would be the icing on the cake 🥰

mammabird000 · 05/07/2023 15:13

katieelizabeth34 · 05/07/2023 15:18

@mammabird000 ahh congratulations. So happy for you.

I also did another test this morning and it’s definitely more positive and it was within the timescale.

Thinner blue line, evap or faint positive?
SnookyPook · 05/07/2023 15:24

@katieelizabeth34 ah lovely! So great seeing BFPs on these threads! I'll be due to test next week ... 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

mammabird000 · 05/07/2023 15:29

@KittyAllTheWay yes definitely a little sibling!!! The time will come♥️♥️

@katieelizabeth34 ahhhhh amazing!!! Looks positive to me! Take a clear blue digital the 6days early one as it’s suppose to be sensitive and detect 10mIU!!! Let us know how it goes!!!

@SnookyPook fingers crossed, let us know when you have tested and keep us updated!!xx
