Evaporation line or faint positive line? Very confused!

Hi there. I'm new to this site and currently am not a mum.

I have had pregnancy scares before however never actually was pregnant! I've always been very nervous that i potentially cannot have children due to the amount of years gone by with no result and unprotected sex with my boyfriend, however not confirmed!

However i have noticed for a few weeks now i have been continuously sick at random times, i also had a point where i couldn't eat food i loved with out feeling sick. I am continuously tired and sick, the last few days while at work (Metropolitan police service as a PC) i had noticed that keeping my stab vest done up with my belt and trousers caused extreme discomfort. I haven't noticed any weight gain. My mood swings have been very drastic recently however not uncommon for me. I have had a lot of continuous migraines which is unlike me, and have had cramp like feelings. I have back and forthed with needing to pee constantly and being constipated. These are my only "symptoms" however i just get a feeling i could well be pregnant.

my periods are always at the start of the month however last month i didn't come on until the end of the month, and when i was on it was only very light for three days, it was definitely not a usual period for me and i now have no idea when i will next be on, however i do not feel like it will be any time soon!

Today i had enough and went and bought a basic tesco's blue ink pregnancy test.

I took the first test and the single line appeared instantly, disappointed, i put it away and didn't look at it for a while, when i re looked there was a blue faint line in the shape of the second pregnant line, this got me very excited and i took the second instantly to make sure, I took the second, and once again, it was a single line, after 10 minutes or so, a faint blue line appeared just like the first, the lines are clearly there however not strong enough to know for sure.

I've read a load of different threads and read bad reviews for the tesco's blue ink tests, and have been made aware of evaporation lines.

Any advice? :(

Try a different test?

Try a pink dye test.
