Evaporation lines or Pregnant?

25 replies

RebeccaJ1995 · 15/07/2024 16:00

Hi ladies. Have any of you had experience with evaporation lines? I know I'm not supposed to do this but I've taken 3 tests today and 1 digital one in that order. The 3 tests all had a very faint line each time but the digital one said I am not pregnant. If I am pregnant I will be very early maybe 1-2 weeks and not due on until this Wednesday. Any advice please. (I've not taken a pic of the 3rd as I'm now out and about) x

Depends on what tests, how long after dipping the lines appeared, what colour they are etc. some are worse than others for evaps/indents and dye runs.

I don’t see any pictures.

RebeccaJ1995 · 15/07/2024 16:06

Sorry the images didn't upload. The faint lines showed within 3-4 minutes and they run from the top to the bottom. There is a tinge of colour in person

Tricky. That top picture with the two in, the lines are different thicknesses. I’d expect them to be the same if both showing positive.

Buy a branded, non digital, test and hold your bladder for 4 hours before re testing, or wait until morning and use FMU. Fingers crossed they are the beginnings of a positive for you.

Those look positive to me but I'm not familiar with that test. An ultra early clearblue displayed positive for me at 10dpo. Most digitals (including the standard clearblue one) you need to do later.

They look positive. 🥰

RebeccaJ1995 · 16/07/2024 09:21

Thank you! These ones are ultra early detect and they measure from just 10ml of HCG. Whereas the digital one I did check and it measures from 25 HCG which is alot higher! I have purchased a clearblue which measures 10 HCG too so will see what that says x

These are from this morning. I think it's positive as the line came within the 3 mins and is faint blue

Im really sorry but I’m not seeing it, clearblue positives are as thick as the control line, and a consistent thickness and colour the whole way across. If AF doesn’t arrive tomorrow then give it a couple of days before retesting.
Wishing you lots of luck 🍀

You're better off with a pink dye test, like FRER

Use FMU and dip the test in

Hold them up to a light/over a lamp and see if both lines show. I did this and even faint lines showed if very early. Only one line showed if negative.

Sounds promising! Fingers crossed for you! 😉

I've attached a photo to show how faint mine was and a couple of days later showed as 1-2 weeks on a digital test.

Keep testing! The lines will get stronger if you are pregnant. x

Honestly I don't think that feeling ever goes away! At every stage you will be amazed and even when they're eventually born; you'll still look and think I can't believe you're here and you're MINE 😘

Hey all. Just reopening this thread for some advice.
I started heavily bleeding followed by a few clots last Thurs. A&E said suspected miscarriage but to test in a week and see if still positive.
I should have been 5 weeks this Weds just gone. Tests have been progressively getting stronger but then started to get slightly weaker, however today seem stronger again. Same tests taken the same time of the day before I have any fluids.
If I did miscarry is it possible the tests can get stronger before they get weaker?

Just to add I did start bleeding again last night and passed some tissue in my blood

Hi all, thank you so much for your support 💕 I have been for scans and unfortunately had confirmation I have lost my baby. They are still testing my bloods as HCG did rise again, but it's now at 41 from 101 last week.
