Shadow of a line?

Soooo, after promising myself I wouldn't rest early... I tested early (about 9dpo) 🫣 is there a very faint line on this one?

How do people stay strong enough to not tear early?

Thank you 😅

I'm going to say it's too early to test (from a former early, unable to wait tester). There could be a slight whisp of a line but 1) I have tired eyes and 2) it's very early and anything can happen. I'm not saying I can see one, just that I wouldn't be definite that it was negative in your shoes.

@MaverickSnoopy thank you so much, that is a very good response... I seem to have lost all sense this morning.

I am going to try (really hard) to put it out of my mind and wait to test again 🤞🏻

It looks similar to my super early lines! Good luck!

@Welshcake15 thank you so much ❤️ I'm trying not to get too excited yet (not doing the best job haha)

This was my shadow a few weeks ago. So, so faint, and sometimes I could see it, and other times I thought I was seeing things! I had a much clearer result the next day with a Boots own brand early detection test, and then had a positive result on a Clearblue digital a few days later. I'm now 6 +3.

I found my lines didn't get much clearer with easy@home until about a week later, which surprised me as I used them a couple of years ago when I was pregnant and found I had really clear lines. I've got dye stealers with them now, but took a couple of weeks to get there, whereas I had much stronger lines with other tests, particularly the Boots early one.

@Welshcake15 congratulations! 🥳
The tests look so similar :o

Thank you, I might nip to boots and get one 🤞🏻

Sorry OP, I can't see anything. It's crazy early though so wouldn't expect to yet. Fingers crossed for you.

@LinearPenguin interesting I have found it the other way round with Boots tests, both control and test line seem very light? They are the top 3 below. What have yours been like?

@Delphina17 thank you for checking for me :D I definitely started testing too early haha

@northernsunshine I've only tried the easy@homes for now... Been trying to hold off buying more.

The top ones do look a little faint :o If I manage to get hold of some today I'll let you know what mine are like.

Hello, so I didn't manage to get to Boots so I ordered a Clear Blue from Amazon.

The easy@home are getting better slowly but I am happy it was confirmed with another test too...

I am going to try my hardest to stop testing and thinking about it for now and see if it is better in a few days.

Thank you all for helping ❤️

Hello :D I am about 11 dpo.

Congratulations! How many did you get the positive digital test? I want to try one and see the words written in front of me but don't want to do it too soon 😅
