I'm 2 weeks late and while I can be irregular I'm not THIS irregular. Decided to pick a cheap test up tonight just to rule it out as I've been under eating/stressed and thought it may be that. DCs are 13 and 17 so really not trying. Test has come up with this and I'm still none the wiser, suppose it serves me right for choosing the cheapest test! Is this positive? Faulty test?

I can see something. Is this happy news?

I think it’s a failed test but it could be positive. I had great success with Poundland strip tests so you might not need to spend a lot to confirm. It does need another test to be sure though.

I think you might need to test again to be sure, but yes looks like it is a positive.

Dependent on your age, missed periods can happen. I have children between 14-18. My periods can often miss a month these days.

Looks more like an evaporation line to me as it’s not a full line and the whole window looks saturated. I suggest testing again if this is not good news!

I had similar to this on an Asda test- ended up retesting with clearblue and was in fact pregnant! I think take another test to be sure

Retested this morning and it was negative so I'm assuming it was a faulty test. Feeling quite relieved though. Will test again in a week if I've still not come on.
