Faint positive or evaporation lines

Hello, I’m new here and just wanted some thoughts before bothering a nurse or doctor. I’m older (40) and just have not got pregnant, but still like clockwork with periods. However I am late, so I tested Sunday and this morning. Does this look like an evaporation line? I plan to re-test at the end of the week. Any thoughts welcome.

I think that looks positive! I'd have to test again the morning!

WiseDog · 20/05/2024 18:50

Your having a baby

Positive. If you can try a digital test. Always helps it sink in seeing the words. Congratulations!

Thanks for looking, I was doubting if it was pink enough and so it hasn’t really sank in, just keep expecting to come on. Ordered a couple more tests and will then go to see the doctor. Should have ordered digital, MsSandyToes, you are right.

@Mumof888 hi huni it looks like there's just a mark on it not a proper line I would test again x

Hi ladies my husband and I have been trying for a baby and I after having already tested with CB test and upon reading a few posts about clear blue not being reliable, can someone please tell me if this is a positive test or a evaporation line, both lines are blue and so was all the 7 tests prior to this one in the box that I have done was also like this? Has anyone experienced this kind of evap line at all or was this a positive result and did The doctor confirm it for you to be positive or negative with further tests. I am so confused

@WiseDog im going to re test in a few days I think 🤔 1 day before my actual Af is due , I’m not convinced because you have to shine youre phone camera torch through the back for the 2 pink lines to be proper visable .

WiseDog · 27/05/2024 13:54

@Kppm211590 that's a positive hun I would go doctors so they can do bloods x

WiseDog · 27/05/2024 13:55

@Mumof888 yeah I would test again or try a digital test hun x

Kppm211590 · 27/05/2024 14:01

WiseDog · 27/05/2024 13:54

@Kppm211590 that's a positive hun I would go doctors so they can do bloods x

I really hope so cause we have been trying for a really long time to get pregnant, does it matter how thick the plus line is cause that one is really thin. Thankyou hun xx

WiseDog · 27/05/2024 19:32

@Kppm211590 no hun it doesn't matter that's a great positive test u definitely are x

unsurebut · 27/05/2024 19:41

I've been caught out with evap lines that looked exactly like that.

Mumof888 · 27/05/2024 22:35

Okay so I did test again today 🙈🙈 I’m going to do a dearer one in a few days time (once I’ve actually missed my period ) I’m currently 8dpo this was done in the time frame took about 1 minute to be visable ,
my last positive test looked exactly like this to start with and colour darkened with more hcg . Thoughts on this ??
