Line or Faulty?

[Figelda]

My periods are super irregular (sometimes 28 days, sometimes a year) so the fact I'm late and TTC means I have no idea what my body is doing haha.

I did the ovulation tests for a few weeks after my last period and got a consistent set of feint lines for 4 days running so am hopeful I ovulated but just missed the test timing for a proper positive surge.

Based on this I've done a pregnancy test 4 days ago when my period should have been due based on 28 days, which was a clear negative.

This morning I've done another one because the past 2 mornings I've had a singular wave of nausea, I feel like I need to pee more and my nipples are ever so slightly tender, plus last week I had 3 days where I just felt exhausted beyond anything I've ever experienced before.

This morning's test, I can only describe it as as smudges rather than a line? I feel like this is probably faulty but hope has brought me here.
I've ordered some other tests but they won't be here for 2 days.

This is totally not helpful, but looking at the left picture I thought it was definitely faulty and a smudge. Then I looked at the right pic and thought maybe it could be a faulty test but you're pregnant so some of the dye correctly attached to the well. It lookes like the test may have flooded. It can be easier to pee in a plastic cup and then dip the test strip. Fingers crossed for when the new tests arrive

I think there's a chance this could be positive! Will keep fingers crossed for you 🤞🏼 please update when tests arrive!
