Is this an early positive?

Had some spotting yesterday, 4 days before period due. Realised this has actually happened with my other pregnancies and thought I'd just do a test I had in a drawer (not an early response one) and, although very faint, I'm not sure it's negative? Obviously I'll retest when period is due but now it's all that's on my mind! What do you think??

There’s a lot of dye bleed so I’d assume it’s tracked up the positive indent. Sorry.
Re test in a few days using FMU, and dip in a collected sample to avoid flooding/dye bleed.

Looks like a negative

DancingSpider · 10/01/2025 16:05

Oh interesting! Ok thank you!

I would def say positive as it is a thick blue line.x

doopdoopdidoop · 10/01/2025 19:32

I think that is an early positive, yes. Good luck 🤞🏼

Shortbreadfinger2 · 10/01/2025 19:38

I think that’s definitely positive, looks like my test around 10 dpo.

i would say it’s negative.
i hate these tests as they are so unreliable.

i would wait another 3 days and then take a digital

Sorry I agree with those saying there's too much dye bleed. These tests are so rubbish!

Maybe try and get a frer or boots early detection? Agree with the suggestion to dip rather than wee on

DancingSpider · 10/01/2025 23:22

Thanks everyone! I will report back if anyone is interested!

Also sorry what do you mean when you say dye bleed? I realised I don't actually really know what I'm looking at!

I think yours is positive. It looks exactly like mine lol I took this at 11dpo and then I did a clear lie digital the next day and was positive 1-2

Is this an early positive?

Can you get a pink dye test or an early result digital ? I’ve been ttc 3.5 years and have done a lot of tests those CB ones aren’t reliable they give misleading results. I’ve never been pregnant and they’ve given some nasty Evap lines that made me think I was so I never buy them now

CosmicLove · 11/01/2025 08:50

I think this looks like an early positive as the line is quite think and blue. But I know these CB ones can give some nasty evaps. Are you testing again today OP? Good luck xx

*"the line is quite thick" that was meant to say :)

GRCP · 11/01/2025 08:52

There's clearly something there, but I agree it could be positive or a smear from the dye. I would test again today!

An update... Yesterday gave me a bit of a heads up but it still felt like a shock. Thanks again everyone for your comments.

Wow congratulations

Olika · 11/01/2025 15:41

Congrats. Was about to say your yesterday test looks positive but you already did the digital so you know for sure. Enjoy!

Firefly42 · 11/01/2025 15:56

Congrats!!Knew it was a true positive by how thick the line was and not dye run etc like some others commented.x

CosmicLove · 11/01/2025 16:09

Congratulations OP! 🩷

shieldmaiden7 · 11/01/2025 19:51

I was going to say that looks just like mine did when I first tested!

Congratulations op! Wishing you a healthy pregnancy Flowers

Thewaitingseason · 11/01/2025 19:52
