Hi @Becca12344 maybe you could post a normal pic of the test, in normal light?! Although now it's too late to take another photograph. Maybe you took a normal one at the time?

I was trying to use one of them checker apps @Regenbogen22 yeah that’s it in normal light

Ah, I meant with normal light shining on the test, not from behind. With a lot of tests it's important to be able to see if there is colour, and when the test is backlit it's tricky to see!!

@Regenbogen22 it was the only way I could pick it up by camera my partner couldn’t see it by looking but his sister could

I would say if it is that tricky to see then you should test again on Friday with another FRER 😉

Hi @Regenbogen22 it’s too late I threw it out I’m due my period in 7 days so would it of shown on that early test if I was ? I just don’t know I can’t shake the feeling that I am or maybe I’m not being patient enough but I just taken a digital one and it said not pregnant so I think that’s my answer maybe or maybe it was still to early I don’t know my anxiety is through the roof I never done all this early stuff with my last but I had the same feeling before I found out

If you look at the back of the test you'll see it's the plastic ridge (I've been there).

When using backing light on the FRER tests, it picks up the plastic casing 'fins' on the back of the test. From the front, it can look like a second line unfortunately. Test again in 2 days and good luck x
