Hi all,

Hi all. I took a negative pregnancy test this morning, but it was the smallest wee, don’t think it lasted 5 seconds, so thought it wouldn’t be very reliable.

I’ve just done another after holding for a couple of hours. Am I going insane, or is there a TINY pink dot where the positive line would be? (At the bottom). It’s so much less visible in the pic but it’s there. It shows up a lot more pink in real life too, but hopefully you can see the place it's in.
Has anyone had this?? What does it meeeeaaaannnn??!

Help please!

I can see a dot, but not a line. Pee into cup and dip one in the morning.
Good luck.

I would wait a couple of days (if you can) - and take another test using the first wee of the day (I found it easier to see into a lot and dip the rest in). I know the waiting is horrible.
I can see the dot but that might not be an indication because the rest of the line isn't there.

Thank you! Like I said, it's much clearer and "pinker" in real life. The picture is rubbish!! I'll try again in the morning! Thank youuu xx

Think positively.
An annoyingly long wait. Don't cave and do it this evening though. Wait. Good luck.

Aw thank you. I don't think I'm going to be that lucky but I really hope so!!.

It's making me feel a little better that people are saying to wait and try again. Like a negative result isn't the end of the world - gives a bit more hope Smile

How many days late are you?

user1490195192 · 21/11/2017 16:30

I'm six days late .. I hadn't really noticed until my boyfriend gave me a look yesterday! I think I'm just late though, maybe this was a faulty test and I should just take it as a negative.

If it's not usual for you to be late then yes it could be just that. It should definitely show in the morning though.

Would wait a while if u can took till I was 5 or 6 weeks before mine showed up

MaggieS41 · 21/11/2017 18:23

Get a digital one! I went through a few and the lines just weren’t clear and confusing. After wasting my money on them I ended up spending a few ££ more and got the right result!

CL1982 · 21/11/2017 19:33

That could be a very faint line -stick to FRER-they are expensive but by far the best very early tests of you think you have a bean in the can....

Did you re-test?
