Indent. Not supposed to take the test apart

I can see a line on the one not taken apart. What dpo are you? If you're testing before your due on, it's possible it will go darker over the coming days.

I saw the result before I took it apart, there was a line so after I saw it and timeframe was up I took it apart and saw it still

no idea. I'm on CD 43. Period 18th-23rd march and brown spotting 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th April. Could potentially of happened in next cycle and missed a period or I could be about 5-6 weeks. Honestly don't have a clue. I had a faint positive yesterday too

Defo a line

If you were 5/6 weeks there would be a obvious line

Emmamoo89 · 29/04/2023 11:50

I'm sure you keep making different threads with the same tests. 🤔

When my mum had me she didn't have an obvious line until 13 weeks. It can be different for everyone. However I reckon I conceived in next cycle and missed a period.

Well I don't see a line. And the line on the test thats been taken apart doesn't look right. Looks too far apart from the control line.

I can see a line on the test but I’m not sure if it’s an evap? Also I have seen your other posts too and you aren’t happy with peoples answers as they are saying they can’t see the line I would wait another week and test or phone the doctors for them to confirm good luck x

I don't believe it's an evap as it's pink and it came up within timeframe x

@orange516 test in a couple of days it will get darker ♥️ Congratulations 👏🏻 x

Cakencookieobsessed · 29/04/2023 12:09

There is a line but if you're past your period it should really be darker. Are your cycles usually regular? Maybe you had a chemical pregnancy? It's unfortunate, but it happens where you pick up the pregnancy hormone and it shows on the tests, but it sadly tails off as the pregnancy ends, happened to me twice .
I've had faint tests like that and gone on to be pregnant, but that was when I was testing like 3 to 4 days before I was due on my period.

I've had negatives up until yesterday so I think it was a cp they would get lighter so I will see if they get darker. My cycles are irregular so no idea how far gone I'd be.

I think all you can do then is just to retest. Maybe in a day or 2. Pregnancy hormone is meant to double over 48 hours I think, so if you are pregnant it should be darker. Hope it all works out for you.

I didn’t get a really faint line until the day of my period so it’s not true that it always has to be super dark. It does look like a line to me. Congrats!

Thank you! I've done two of the pink line Tesco tests now (yesterday morning and this morning) with both having pink faint lines. Not sure whether to trust even tho they came up in timeframe just because they were £3.50 haha. When did you get a dark bfp or darker bfp?

ThomasinaLivesHere · 29/04/2023 17:29

I can’t help with that sorry. With my son I only did pregnancy tests until I got a faint line as the tests say a faint line was positive so I’ve no idea at what time it would have become darker but obviously was correct as I gave birth 9 months later. And with current pregnancy I also haven’t been monitoring that either though I did get a few days of cheap faint tests but I got these ones from Amazon and I don’t think they were that great and I used a frer to confirm but that was over a week after period and was reasonably strong.

Oh wow so do you think I should take my lines as a positive then? I know I'm definitely late for period just don't know the dates properly as irregular cycles

I think I may have just got my bfp!! I couldn't wait and wanted to take a 3rd one and it's positive again! Clearly can't be an indent/evap or false positive. Timeframe is 5 mins and it came up in the 3rd minute!

There's something there but personally I wouldn't regard it as a positive as it's really faint for how late you are. It is possible you are pregnant and it's not showing strong lines, especially as you say your cycles are not regular.

I think I may not be as far gone as I think or hcg levels are just low. There's definitely a pink line that came up quickly and I've done 3 now and they all have a line so must be preg, I just have no idea on the dates 😫
