Hi All

I'm needing some advice please. I took a pregancy test on sunday morning 10th Nov and there was a faint line on it. I then took another test on sunday and it was negative.
I dont know if I'm pregnant or not, though my boobs are tender to touch at the sides and on top, I feel sick but no actual being sick, I was on bus today and when going over bumps it was going right to my stomach and making me feel sick. I have been dizzy etc.

When I showed my friend my first test she was convinced I was pregnant aswell. I just dont know.
Any help would be great, I'm going to take another test this friday 15th

Were they different brands? Some brands are more sensitive than others, hence why some would be positive + some would be negative

Yeah they where different brands 1 was a cheap one got from ebay and the other a first response.
The 1st one stated even if line faint it's a positive.

Have you missed a period yet?

Drugin86 · 13/11/2019 08:56

My period is due tomorrow, I took the tests early to see if I was pregnant.

So you took the test four days before your expected period. Was it a FRER, as they are the most sensitive.

Was the second test the same brand as the first one? They all have different levels of sensitivity, which might explain why you got a negative result with the second test.

Can you upload pictures of the tests?

Drugin86 · 13/11/2019 12:29

The first was a non brand I bought off ebay at it says it tested my miu at 10 and second was a clear blue and I'm sure that was 25miu.
I only have a picture of first test and I dont know how to post. When I click on clipboard it wont let me select the picture
So confused as to how it works lol xx

Honestly your better of waiting till your period is late then take a frer test as they are the most sensitive tests. Could of either been a faulty test that came back negative or wasnt as senstive so wouldnt pick pregnancy up yet. X

If the FRER was a faint line then I'd take that a positive - they're the only tests that are sensitive enough to show up for me before my period. But to be 100% sure just take another one a day or two after your period! Good luck Smile

@Drugin86

I hope you get a darker line on your next test. Let us know and good luck!
