Evap line?!

Hi - I’m about 10-11 dpo and af is due any day now. I tested this morning and this came up on my easy at home test. I also did an lh test and it seems quite high for this time of the month?! Seems like it might be an evap line as it’s not consistent all the way down the test. What do people think? Thank you :)

Definitely wouldn't rely on that test but could be an early positive or just invalid. Need to retest.

Mine looked exactly like this yesterday at 8DPO (which was actually first day of missed period due to late ovulation)! How did you test today? I'm negative which I guess is unsurprising at 9DPO!

Ah there’s still time for you! Fingers crossed. I tested again this morning and got these (now 12dpo) but I’m still feeling really cautious due to the other weird looking tests and also I tested again this afternoon (I know, probably a stupid thing to do haha) with another Premom and it was totally negative. Ahhh so stressful haha!

Also definitely feels like my period is coming so I’m totally confused :(

Oh those are like a clear positive. I'm about 7 weeks now. I was at the hospital a couple weeks ago becuase I was adamant there was something wrong. I felt premenstrual, cramps, poops, mood. Had a scan then and the sac was empty. Had a scan a couple days ago and there's a baby with a heartbeat. It's my 3rd, you'd think I'd be less anxious but pregnancy is hard. It's all on faith, you can't see the baby, you just have to trust they're going to be OK.

Ah thank you for the reassurance! I don’t think I’m helping myself by testing again this afternoon and it now being negative haha. Congratulations by the way! I don’t think we ever stop being anxious do we?! This would be my second and I feel more anxious than the first one at the mo haha.

From everything I've read they look positive to me! Testing later in the day means diluted wee, so ignore those negatives! I don't know how people just "go with the flow" but wish I could be more like that 🤣 I'm currently doing some retail therapy to distract myself! Keep us posted!

Ang1989 · 08/02/2026 18:03

Ha ha same! It’s impossible. Really hoping for good news for you in a couple days - retail therapy is the best distraction! Keep me posted too :)

AF seems to have appeared tonight :( absolutely gutted. Either a chemical or very dodgy easy at home tests.

Oh I'm so sorry, I don't think the tests were dodgy tbh, I'd say it must be a chemical, which doesn't mean it was false, a very early loss. If its any consolation the cycle after a loss is substantially more likely to be successful.

OneSereneShark · 08/02/2026 21:49

Oh no, I'm so sorry 😔 Sending lots of love. TTC is such a rollercoaster x
