Boots pregnancy test- is there 2 lines?

Been trying for a baby and had 3 miscarriages, one last year and two this year so praying it’s a positive but my partner doesn’t think it is. Thoughts?

Something catches my eye but can't say for 100% certainty it's there. If you can see something in person, I'd test again tonight with concentrated urine (a 4+hr hold) and see if there is a clearer line.

Good luck!

DPO?

DPO?

9 days, according to my Flo app my period is due tomorrow

Ah ok, I personally can't see a second line , I'd expect to see something if you're due on tomorrow, but you do have quite a short luteal phase.

I'd test again tomorrow with a FRER!

Coconutter24 · 26/08/2025 15:38

I can’t see anything, maybe wait a couple of days and try again

Yeah I was expecting to see more if it was positive. Since the miscarriages everything has been all over the place so I don’t really know

Can you see a second line? I think I can but not sure of the lighting?

SErunner · 30/08/2025 10:16

If your period is late you’d have a blazing line. These are negative, sorry OP

Get another red line test. CBS are rubbish to interpret in the early days…

This one looks positive to me, fingers crossed for you

I definitely see a faint line! Fingers crossed it gets darker over the next few days! 💜

Not necessarily true, everyone’s cycles are different and with my other pregnancies it was the same, I’m just hoping it will stay when I test again 😊

I’m so sure there is a line, I’ve taken the test out side, inside, natural light and indoor light and I’m certain there is a line! I’m going to see if I can get strip ones so there is no plastic screen on the front

I will do! I used to use the boots pack of 5 strips, they were so good but can’t find them in our local boots so might order online

I was a serial tester when TTC baby 2. I tested tested from as early as 6DPO, multiple times a day... 🙈 This of course meant that I got through lots of them. I ordered some fantastic strip tests from amazon! About 50 tests for a few pounds. Just make sure you get the extra sensitive ones.

Fingers crossed for you, I’m sure I can see a line but didn't want to congratulate to early as I wasn’t sure if it was just the lighting. Although it does look positive 🤞

I second this. I didn't have a blazing line when I was due on my period and currently 3 months pregnant. I ovulated late so maybe that's why

Tysq2 · 31/08/2025 17:16

Worriedaandconfused · 30/08/2025 17:31

These were the ones I used if it's helpful: https://amzn.eu/d/3aDAK9K

Just make sure whatever tests you get, they're 10miu (some are as low as 25miu).

Thank you! I’ll order some 😊
