Hi girls!
im after some advice and previous experience with faint lines!!
im 6 days over due my period
I have taken about 6 tests in the space of 2 days - 2 x digital both say not pregnant however all the strips have faint lines?? These tests was from last night and then this morning with first urine!! Do they look positive to you?? I’ve got a midwife appt booked for a few weeks just in case but I just really need to know if I’m pregnant or not!? GP won’t do a HCG blood test and I’m told they only do these at routine midwife appts but I cannot wait another 4 weeks to know for sure! Help a gal out xx

Get some pink line tests, blue are notorious for evap lines.
You could have ovulated later than you thought meaning the HCG might not be high enough for digital just yet.

Definitely positive imo! Get a digital test

It looks positive to me but agree with first post, grab another test and check in the morning x

Agree with everyone else, get a pink line test and repeat again with first urine tomorrow. I can see a faint line on your second pic, so if tomorrow's is a faint line too Id take that as an early yes

She said she’s taken 2 digitals and both were negative

Update - taken a pink test this morning and this is the result - at a very good squint & angle which the photo doesn’t really pick up there is almost a line but I think that’s more my imagination! Will keep testing over the next week or so but looks like it’s a non! Thank you for the help 😘

I’d trust that test over the clearblue so at the moment I’d go with no. But you’re still very early though so it could still test positive later. Why do you have a midwife appointment though? Just a bit confused about that. Surely you only get a midwife appointment if you’re pregnant? As far as I know they don’t routinely check HCG at midwife appointments either?

That’s what I thought!
The GP just advised me to contact the midwives with a potential faint positive - they booked me an appt for what would be classed as 8 weeks based off LMP & said to keep testing until that date for either a more positive or sure negatives and then cancel the appointment if needed🤷‍♀️ I only called for advice and that was what I was told so I have no idea.
