This is the inside of my clear blue digital. Both strips. Test says not pregnant but could I be ? As one strip has 2 lines but one is very faint so might not show on digital test? Help !

I think it's completely invalid if you've taken it apart. You'd be best to try with a FRER as they are more sensitive.

Digitalis always have two lines on the inside...

cindersrella · 19/06/2019 21:09

I can't even tell what's what on the test. I didn't realise they came apart like this... I'd take a test on the morning if you have one OP 😀

Clear blue digital tests always have two blue lines on the inside. Once the second reaches a certain level of darkness the test is positive. It's not like a regular test where a line is a line. Maybe try am FRER in the morning? They turned positive for me the earliest. Good luck!

I'm just so confused as I swear I see a faint line on a cheapy test but it could just be in my head. I had a miscarriage and d&c 6 weeks ago Friday and the hospital said that I should have a period in weeks 4-6 after the surgery so I'm super on edge.

I hope you're pregnant if you want to be. But sometimes it's like a watermark. I had a few tests like that. Go to a cheap store and buy 3 for a pound. They're super sensitive and work just as well. Good luck.

Hope you're doing OK after the mc. Its so awful. It took me 3 months to conceive after my mc and those 3 months were so dark. You do move on from it although at the time it's hard to think you will x

Oh dear I am really sorry for what you have been through. I miscarried my first baby and it's awful.

You could quite easily be pregnant then it's just the confirmation you need 4-6 you are at the 6th week then... do you have another test to do in the morning. X

Thank you so much :) I got pregnant straight away so just a bit nervous. And it didn't show on any tests until I'd missed my period either. Not sure when I ovulated or even if I did so it's just all confusing at the moment but definitely worried as they told me I should have a period by 6 weeks. Which is Friday.

The first time I got pregnant we wasn't trying ( caught in the sept we were getting married the following August) I lost in the December. We then decided to try again after we were married and I was lucky enough to catch straight away but I was a wreck until my 1st scan she is now 9. It's horrible trying to get pregnant after you have miscarried I found with both of mine I was a wreck until my 1st scans and I new everything was okay. DD2 is 4.

I really do hope you get the answer you want x

I'm so sorry to hear about that. And so glad that you finally had your baby! I didn't know I miscarried until my 1st scan. I lost a lot of blood and almost died in the following days due to a clott so was very traumatic and not a textbook miscarriage really. So the thought of being pregnant or having a scan is terrifying at the moment. Just wish I knew for sure I was pregnant or wish to have my period so I can at least deal with it from there. Just very worried

Oh gosh what a time you had.. I miscarried in the same way which I didn't want to say yesterday as I thought it may scare the crap out of you. I never bled and had the problems after though... I did have to go into the hospital and take meds for baby to come away (not a d&c) it was all traumatic enough but I was okay.

Give yourself a few days and test again.. I am sure you will be okay and will become pregnant again if you are not already.

Feeling anxious and really down about a an unfortunately won't go away I don't think. It never did for me anyway. X

Thanks for your messages I'm sorry you went though the same. Is so tough. Did a first response this morning and definitely negative. Started to bleed a little too so hopefully it's my period. Saw my doctor and she's signed me off for a little bit so takes the pressure away a bit. Just so relieved to (hopefully) be having a period. Will definitely put my mind to rest knowing I'm working properly again haha ! X

It will and at least it has come. Now you can start tracking your fertility window.. do you have any apps on your phone to track? X

cindersrella · 20/06/2019 13:08

Take time out. I took pregnacare conception when I was trying plus I had apps to. It will happen for you but you do need to recover too x
