I'm currently trying for baby number 3. Both my last pregnancies I tested early with clear positives. So I can't help but keep testing again. I know it's a little early - I'm probably around 9po today, so 8dpo yesterday when I took the tests pictured. However with my first two I tested positive a good week before my period both times. That was 9 and 11 years ago though. Back then I had regular 28 day cycles. Now I have anything between 22 and 29 days, with the average being 26 days. I tend to see EWCM from day 9 or 10. I had unprotected sex late on cd12. My period would be, if an average one, due in 5 days.

Yesterday I didn't drink much all day then did a frer in the afternoon... But missed the stick! The control line wasn't up even.I know that's so dumb. I was distracted and hurrying and thought it was there. So I chucked it in a drawer to try later but I didn't wait the full 3 mins as thought I'd missed entirely. Came back maybe 2-3 hours later and I obviously had got some wee on it as the control line was now clear and there was a second line too, so a bit dodgy looking but pink. I then did another frer that was definitely negative. I did an ultra early clear blue this morning that was negative but showed a blue line half an hour later. I just don't know what to think I've never had evaps before it's either positive or negative and stayed that way. Pic - top is the first test that showed the line later (I don't know much later the second line came up though), bottom is the second I then took that was negative.

With my first I had a negative fmu, didn't believe it, did another about 4pm that was clear positive.

EDIT this pic doesn't look as pink as it looked. Have added more in a post.

My advice….save yourself the headache and ambiguity, and test if and when your period is late. It either will be, or it won’t be. Either way, you will know that whatever result you get, it is accurate.

Evap

needs to be a solid line even if very very faint

Could be either! Have another test tomorrow and fingers crossed for you. ☺️ Tip though: pee into a pot of some sort so that you can dip the test instead.

Update - got this within a minute this morning. Fmu, Boots early test.

Had convinced myself this wasn't happening this month!
