Is this a positive test?

I’ve taken five clear blue early detection pregnancy tests but have since read they’re notorious for false positives!

four days post five day frozen embryo transfer it was a clear negative

yesterday I took another and saw a faint line, repeated in evening saw another faint line.

this morning took another and can see a faint line.

or am I imagining it?? They showed up within 3 mins of testing.

Is this a positive test?

Looks positive to me but clear blue are crap. Try a pink dye. Boots do some cheap early detection ones

Thank you! Have you had experience with these tests?

Thank you! I’ve read their strip ones are fairly accurate even before missed period. Will try those!

I used boots strip ones for my ivf positive :) they’re not as sensitive as others but I got a clear faint positive 6dp5dt.

I have had a million (like 5?) clear blue false positives, but the lines look odd, thin etc. I would be feeling tentatively excited if I got a line like yours.

I can’t remember if I’m honest, there have been so many, but they never looked like a defined rectangle like yours. I stopped using them 2 years ago (apart from the ones that come with the digital tests). But they’re always a weird spindly little line. You’ll see online if you google it. Clear blue refunded me once or twice! I was so angry at the non clarity.

Definitely get pink dye ones. All the cheap big packs I’ve got from Amazon have always been spot on, and at a fraction of the price the clear blue ones cost. Having said that, it does look like a good line you have, so fingers crossed for you. But do double check with a pink dye.

Thank you!! Took the boots ones and I think I can see something but wasn’t definitive. Took a clear blue early digital and that says pregnant so it looks ok!
