Immediate 't' followed by faint 'c'

Desperately waiting to need to pee again. I took a boots pregnancy test, not sure I managed to pee for 5 minutes. The T line came in less than a minute, the faint C a little while after.

Is it still likely to be invalid as there are two lines here, right?

Huh? Two lines means positive. I don't understand what you're asking.

BrimfulOfBaba · 30/03/2022 22:33

It's the C line that needs to be stronger doesn't it? The leaflet says just a t line means invalid

Sorry, pee for 5 seconds. I'm a bit all over the place!

This is a really really strong positive and what's known as a dye stealer - the t line has taken all of the colour from the c line!

It’s positive. The test line can steal colour from the control line once hcg levels get quite high. Do a digital. It will show 3+

It means you're super pregnant! It's called a dye stealer, when the positive line is so strong it steals dye from the control.

A faint C line is a line! That's a positive pregnancy test.
I hope that's good news for you x

Oh my god. It would be amazing news but I'm so nervous as I vaped today out of pure curiosity.

I really need to do another test!

I don't feel grown up enough to be pregnant!
