Very faint line at 9DPO after negative tests, what do you think?

Hi everyone!

I'm 9DPO and going out of my mind. I've had negative tests so far, and decided to take another one tonight, where I swear I can see a very, very, very faint line.

Unfortunately the camera isn't picking it up too well. What do you think?

It's still very early, so a negative at this point doesn't mean you're not pregnant, but also that line doesn't look like it covers the width of the test and I'd expect the LH test to be stronger if the HCG test is picking up any hormone at all. So for now I'd say negative.

They both look positive but it's early days. Is the bottom one an ovulation test?

Because it’s not a pregnancy test.

OP it’s too early, hopefully you get a faint line in the morning though if you think you can see something tonight 🤞

The bottom one is an ovulation test. I didnt notice the line on the pink one until I compared them. I'm going mad at this point. Really hoping it's an early positive.

I can clearly see a faint line in person. It's just really hard to catch on camera.

Hopefully it gets stronger for you

Try and hold out another few days before testing if you can… easier said than done I know!!! For context, I tested positive 9 DPO with DC1, but with DC2, I tested negative at 13 DPO (then decided I definitely wasn’t pregnant and drank a shitload of champagne at a party that night) 4 days later no sign of AF, and low and behold I tested positive 👀😬 Wishing you luck!

If the pregnancy test touched the ovulation test at all it can give false positives or false lines

it almost looks like some dye has bled across from the opk on the picture you circled
