The faintest of faint lines?

I'm taking the easy@home brand pregnancy test and I keep thinking I see a super faint second line this cycle. I've been trying to TTC since March and not seen it before. But it's very faint if there at all and I need to shine the torch on my phone to see it. But hubby thinks he sees It too. I think I first tested on Thursday, then tested again Friday and now today - all same result. Today's supposed to be the first day of my period, 17DPO, so I was expecting a clearer line! Can anyone recommend a clearer test? I think I'm going mad waiting!

Clear blue - try the early response ones?

@ReadAllTheStuff I’ve found the easy@home tests to give really faint lines when you’re only a few days past implantation. They only really picked up for me the last few days (I’m 18DPO today). I’ve attached my first one from 11DPO and from today at 18DPO. I would really recommend doing a FRER digital because then you don’t have to second guess any of the lines and at 17DPO you should have enough HCG for that to be accurate. Good luck! :)

I ended up buying the FR triple check that I found recommended on https://www.mumsnet.com/swearsby/best-pregnancy-tests

It includes the digital test. Wish me luck for tomorrow! If it's negative, can I safely drink wine to console myself or should I wait until/if my period comes to be sure?

Welp. I didn't have to use my fancy test because AF came like a vengeance this morning. Next month maybe. 🙁 Wine tonight is my plan!
