Hello, I have done 2 dip tests this morning in first pee - i am 1 day early. I got 2 faint lines within the time stated
I went and got clear blue early test to check and it says not pregnant. Any thoughts?

Those strips are more sensitive I believe. Maybe keep testing and as it gets thicker and darker then look at a digital. I didn't do a digital til I was roughly 12dpo x

thank you, that's helpful... i do have a niggling suspicion that I have some mild pre period sign, hormonal headache, not quite cramps, slight change in bowel movements. :(

The strips are more sensitive. That’s how mine looked when I started testing and then they got stronger every day (I used the same strips).

I never had any false positives with them, but a lot of women were saying they did get evap lines from them.

i suppose i should say i have used these same batch the past two months they say read between 3-5 mins and each of these are at 3 mins. never before have they showed this... however, i suppose time will def tell

The digitals don't pick up such faint lines, looks positive to me though! Test again tomorrow and hopefully line will be darker then digital should pick up in a couple of days ☺️

I'd trust the strips. I didn't get a strong line for over a week after AF due day

Hi OP, any updates?
Im in a similar situation 😫🥺.
First Vue stick came back an extremely extremely barely able to see faint positive then I tested this morning with a strip of the same brand and neg! Frustrating!! X

polo35 · 20/07/2023 10:42

update - continue to have two lines.
I had extremely hydrated pee this morning when i got up at 5am and frustratingly had peed at 3am.

But this is the test result I have today

My line on exact same test was even less than that and I've now got 10mo D's. Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉

The only test I took with DD was possibly even lighter than that CB and she is a very much real 2 year old!
