Positive on CB but not on red dye?

Just a bit weary as I've not heard great things about clearblue tests and don't want to get my hopes up.
Red dye test was fmu (I'm 10dpo). Maybe I can see a squinter but I'm not sure if it's just line eyes.
Clearblue pic is taken at around 5mins - it's thick and definitely blue.
Both tests say they detect at 10miu so I'm weary of getting my hopes up. Anyone else had a similar experience?

Sorry, Op, but I don't think that Clearblue test is showing positive - for a positive you'd get a blue line in the larger rectangle as well as the small one (as shown in the little diagram on the test next to the word 'pregnant') and I can't see one in your photo....

Attached another photo that's a bit clearer, do you not think so?

I definitely see something on the CB. Not sure I can on the pink dye. If you’re only 10dpo it might be worth retesting if you miss your period?

The CB test definitely looks positive to me. What brand is the other one?

Edited to add I've just looked more carefully and seen the brand. Iswym about the squinter, though. Sensible advice would be to test again in three or four days, but I know I'd have been testing again tomorrow!! Good luck

7gdr5 · 23/12/2024 18:07

Thank you both.

@Bowietips I'll definitely be testing again in the morning 😂

I can see a line clearly on the Clear Blue and think there is something vv faint on the other one! Good luck.

I think they both look positive but maybe I have line eyes too!

kdmummyx · 23/12/2024 19:34

I can see something on both of the tests - congratulations!! each test can vary and also depends on which time of day you took the test etc. if you’re still unsure take another test with first morning urine and see the result, however I can 100% see a line on both of your tests!xxx

Definitely see one on the clear blue. Is the clear blue one more sensitive? Test again in the morning! Good luck ❤️

They are both the same apparently, and I took the red one with fmu and the clearblue mid morning after a cup of tea so that's why I'm questioning!

I can see a really faint line on your red dye test too!!

Whatsthatcatdoing · 24/12/2024 05:27

I see both. Hopefully this morning you'll see a stronger line 😊 let us know, 🤞 for you..

7gdr5 · 24/12/2024 06:51

Feeling disappointed because I did this test this morning thinking I would see a line but there's nothing.
It was 20miu test though when the others were both 10?

You are still sooo early! The CB does look positive to me!
I wouldn't give up hope yet!

Also FMU is better for some people, but maybe SMU is better for you!

Don't lose hope!

Hcg levels double every 48-72hrs, so I wouldn't expect much progression in just the morning after - and you answered your own question, the test you've just done now is less sensitive 🤍

7gdr5 · 24/12/2024 08:56

Clearblue from a different pack. Surely couldn't get 2 false positives?!

I agree that that many thick clearblue lines are unlikely to be false. (It’s the thin lines that are almost always evap lines) However I detest clearblue (except the digital ones) and I would never ever fully trust them. HCG doubles every 48-72 hours as someone else pointed out. So give it 2 days more and you should see a positive on a less sensitive test. I’d advise a digital one so you’re not trying to analyse lines. Don’t get the weeks indicator ones as they’re less sensitive. Just get the one that says pregnant or not pregnant as I believe that’s 10miu sensitivity as well.
