We have been ttc since we had our son almost 6 years ago. I'm 10days late, I'm feeling that the clear blue tests could be evap lines, they looked like this before 10mins too. I have been urinating more ( even getting up in night which is so unlike me) , discharge and painful breasts. I have called the Dr they are assuming I could be pregnant too and told me to wait next week to do more tests. But it's killing me not knowing and not much help when late period is instantly put down as pregnant.
My first pregnancy took time to show positive but went through bin and old neg tests all turned positive. I now don't trust negative tests if only it were definitive and not a wait and see if hormones
please can anyone share any helpful advice if you have had tests/experience like this and outcome. What I should do next?
I know there is a lot about evap lines with cb
Any other tests that show up early that have been reliable?

If you’re 10 days late I’d expect really strong lines or at least more obvious lines. I know it’s hard but try not to look at pregnancy tests once they’re outside the timeframe, if a line shows up that didn’t appear in the timeframe and appears later it’s more than likely an evap. If your dates could be wrong or you ovulated in the last couple of weeks you could be very early days. My doctor has always offered me a blood test if I’ve been unsure, can you request one to know once and for all?

When she called she just said "test again in a week but it sounds positive"
It's so frustrating it did happen with my first we waited for about 3 weeks for our positive however we weren't expecting it and I didn't mind the wait, however this time we have been wanting it it makes it so much more difficult to cope with.
Thankyou for your feedback x

So frustrated and can't wait any longer yes or no?
Cb positive but potentially evap and fr negative.
10 days late, frequent urinating and more discharge. Sore boobs. I did have the worst abdominal pain 2 weeks ago.
Have I just missed or should I continue to keep testing?
My Dr has said to test in a week and given me folic acid but I worry I'm getting hopes up too high, been wanting this for almost 5½ years now
Please any advice would be much appreciated

@Trytomakeasibling well you'll be surprised at this I think your pregnant by that ovulation digital test as I tested with my digital ovulation stick first before buying a pregnancy test! I got a static smiley around 4 days I think after i knew i had ovulated! 😂 just go to shop and buy a clear blue digital pregnancy test please & keep us updated! Goodluck x

I used the easy@home test strips from amazon, they were cheaper (considering i was obsessed with testing) and they're so accurate. When i had a positive i double checked with CB because I couldn't believe my eyes! To me its looks like a positive but its faint because the hcg levels are still fairly low perhaps. One thing i will say is, (someone mentioned above), if the line comes up within the timeframe it's probably a positive, if its outside the timeframe probably an evaporation line. (Having said that evap lines dont show on every test, so if you're testing and testing and you get a faint line, chances are its a genuine positive) Fingers crossed for you x

Trytomakeasibling · 08/10/2023 17:19

Thankyou I will go pop them in my basket now 🤞

Hello, I've been trying to convieve for 12 months. I am currently 10 DPO. this morning I've tested and think I see a really faint line but I'm not sure if my eyes are deceiving me! What do you guys think?

choberry · 07/11/2023 17:02

@Laur3n2004 definitely can see a faint line! Did it come up immediately after testing? If so then may be test again tomorrow and day after to see if it goes darker.

Laur3n2004 · 07/11/2023 17:04

Thanks for your reply! It didn't come up straight away, was around 5 minutes wait when it developed! X

choberry · 07/11/2023 17:10

@Laur3n2004 hmm its a tricky one, when i used these sticks the lines came up straight away. But youve had the same on two tests, so can't be evaporation lines (highly unlikely), i guess you'll only know for sure once you keep testing (the wait is a killer, think i peed on 20 sticks in one dat lol), try again tomorrow with morning pee. Sometimes even when using apps and stick's ovulation can be a few days off (mine was), so fingers crossed its a positive and its just super early days which is why line is faint. Fingers crossed xx

Laur3n2004 · 07/11/2023 17:14

Yeah thats what I was thinking it seems unlikely to be evaporation lines but I don't want to get my hopes up! I've used these tests for past cycles and never had a line before so I'm just praying 🙏🏻 I've got some clear blue tests I may try one of them tomorrow morning! Thankyou lovely xx

choberry · 07/11/2023 17:17

@Laur3n2004 no worries at all, do keep me posted, thats if you can and wish to so of course! :) Best wishes x

Laur3n2004 · 08/11/2023 07:27

Morning! Done a clear blue one this morning and this is the result...
I am again confused as this test should only show 1 line if pregnant but its developed with 2 lines that looks like a plus sign.. I think I'm going to buy a digital one today! Xx
