those tests are so difficult to interpret before test day as they aren’t amazingly sensitive. I can see a shadow of a something in the window but deffo get a frer if you can but hopeful it’s a positive!

As 1st post says frer test but try to wait till nearer OTD before retesting Keep busy - eat a healthy diet - drink plenty of fluids Take any meds you were given as directed

Good luck for the future

Definitely a line in my book but do you know the sensitivity of the test brand? Some are less sensitive than others meaning you get different line strengths so best not to compare lines on these to others you may see on social media etc. For me FRERs were always the most easy to use early on if you can get them. Or you could get HCGs done and avoid the rabbit hole of comparing lines completely.

I'm hoping so. It was a Morrisons own brand one, with a sensitivity of 25ml/U! xx

It would be quite a bit darker on more sensitive tests then. No need to do them, it's just so you didn't worry unnecessarily - I panicked a bit when I saw how faint the line was on the one my GP uses as I was used to FRERs but I got the HCGs back and they were good.

I see a faint line but I'm always very wary of evaporation lines. FRER are best around this time but also hard to get hold of. I've everything crossed for you xx

Thanks all. I've just bought a pack of 3 ClearBlue ones so will use one of those in the morning. xx

I think that looks like a line, and similar to mine at 8dp5dt last week! Really similar in fact.

Sending lots of 🤞🏼🤞🏼 and hopes it continues to darken!

I see a faint line! If you want, try to use more sensitive ones like 6 days early etc, fingers crossed for you 🤞
