Is this a smudge or vvvfp?

[glasshalffull0]

12dpo today so would expect a clear line. I don’t know if I’m clinging onto false hope and it’s just a smudge or it it could be a very faint positive

The more I stare the more I just think it’s a figment of my imagination 😞

I can’t see anything I’m sorry X

I can see it, but it looks like it might just be the indent. Looks silvery and a bit shiny.

Doesn't mean you're not pregnant though, test again in 2 days, you just might not have enough hcg in your system yet.

Absolutely no reason to expect any line at all by 12dpo, we all have different base level of hcg in our system (between 1 and 5, but can be less than 1) and implantation can happen between 6 and 12dpo (8,9 and 10dpo the most common), then hcg doubles roughly every 48-72 hours, so it can take a while to show a bfp.

I didn't get a v faint bfp until 13dpo.

It's always best to wait until a missed AF to test, but if you are early testing remember that you're not out until AF shows.
