Evap line?

Taken with FMU this morning on Superdrug pregnancy test (I took the other one yesterday and must have done it wrong as the control line didn't show up). Unfortunately had to deal with something so checked it after the 5 minute window (annoyingly). Is it an evaporation line?

It's hard to tell. My early positives were that faint but had more colour. I would repeat on a first response, but I do see a line.

Foodylicious · 25/02/2018 09:34

I can see a feint line on both
Looks positive to me

UnicornsandRainbows1 · 25/02/2018 09:38

I think it's positive, but maybe do a test tomorrow morning too Smile

TeaAndPjs · 25/02/2018 09:47

Looks positive but if do another to be sure

Purplerain101 · 25/02/2018 09:49

I’d say positive too. Mine looked like that in the first few weeks

userabcname · 25/02/2018 10:13

Thanks everyone. I will re-test tomorrow!

Thanks guys! Have been reading lots of stories of evaporation lines on these tests so have just bought a different brand for tomorrow.

Keep is updated :)

My most recent BFP looked just like this about 3 days before I missed AF. Good luck!

Swishswish95 · 25/02/2018 22:22

Mine looked like this last week, it was positive!!!

userabcname · 26/02/2018 06:28

Hmm a negative...full disclosure here ladies, I am on contraception but began to experience some early pregnancy symptoms so took a test expecting a negative in all honesty but to reassure myself. DH thinks the test yesterday was wrong as I checked after the 5 minute time frame and believes the negative today. I still have a niggling suspicion that my contraception has failed. Not sure whether to re-test again in a few days or whether I'm just driving myself crazy! Today's test was on a clear blue digital as they had no first response yesterday.

Clear blue digital aren't as sensitive. I would try for FRER and have another go just to be certain

zaalitje · 26/02/2018 06:33

Clear blue digital are the work of the devil, less sensitive for detecting pregnancy and use a a different dating system to the rest of the world so cause unnecessary stress and anxiety when women can't make the dates a add up.

userabcname · 26/02/2018 06:56

Ah ok thanks - looks like I better re-test! Will get a first response one today.

The strength or otherwise of the line unfortunately doesn't count for anything if you can't check it in the time defined on the package, so that test can't tell you anything. If you think you might get distracted next time, save your FMU in a jar for a moment.

userabcname · 26/02/2018 17:24

Thank you - good advice. Have an frer now so will time it carefully tomorrow.

I'd hold wee for an hour or two and then do first response thats what I did anyway and it worked in the evening. If its showing up on any other tests already it will show on Fr. Best of luck

TeaAndPjs · 27/02/2018 07:31

Have you tested this morning? How did you get on?

userabcname · 27/02/2018 08:27

Yes tested on frer - negative! Guess it was an evaporation line after all!

twobambinos · 27/02/2018 08:39

Oh no katniss sorry to hear that. How many dpo are you

userabcname · 27/02/2018 08:57

I'm not sure - I'm having really irregular cycles as I'm actually on the pill but I thought it had failed as I have been waking up queasy and sick for the past couple of weeks and even today (my first pregnancy symptom with DS!). It's obviously not though. I was quite excited to get a positive though so may be chatting to DH about coming off the pill anyway after this!

TeaAndPjs · 27/02/2018 11:19

Sorry to hear that. Hope your talk with DH goes well and your ttc journey is a short 1 :)

userabcname · 27/02/2018 13:32

Thank you Tea :-)
