Hi everyone

I was just wondering if anyone had any experience of indent lines on boots strip tests? I tested early (3days before my period) and got the below result within the 5 mins. This was at midnight so not the best time either. I did it again the next day but it didn’t get darker, I just got the same result!

was just wondering if indents were common with these tests

the picture on the tissue was last nights, and on the foil was this morning

HCG takes 48hrs+ to double, so you likely won't see a difference day to day, especially in the early days. Give it 48hrs if you want to test again (or use a different test), but those look positive to me.

They both look positive. HCG takes 48-72 hours to double. When going from an early HCG of maybe 5 or 6... it could take 2 days to hit 10/12 so you definitely wouldn't see a big change for a few days.

I'd leave the testing until Sunday morning if possible and you should see a notable difference

Thanks both! I am too impatient and ended up taking an early detection test later that morning. Another faint line but I’d imagine that it could be because it’s not first morning!

I will wait until Sunday and go again with a digital!

For that type of test that line isn't actually that faint,they always look a bit washed out!

The clear blue isn't faint.
I would probably just step away from the tests altogether now... you've had multiple positives. Congratulations 🎊
