Well, I tested yesterday morning and got a very very faint line on ic and a very very faint line on FR. So I started to get really excited thinking that I would get a darker line this morning and its even fainter. My heart sank. Could this mean a chemical? or has this happened to anyone else who got a darker line a few days later?

I'm not exactly sure when I ovulated but i am guessing i'm anywhere from 11 to 14 dpo. AF is suppose to arrive on Monday.

I've attached a photo (hope it works) The left test is yesterdays which is darker and the right one is this morning which is hardly visible. The tests are first response early but I broke them open to check they wasn't evap lines or anything (went a bit crazy).

I'm freaking out a little. Would love some advice girls :) Thank you x

up-date.... I actually think these could be evaps.. ive been researching other threads. I held the test stick in the pee for longer than 5 seconds too... whoops half asleep... do you think that would have given my these evap lines

Im not sure whether these are evap lines or not - its really hard to tell by a picture.

Are you due your af? If not you might need to wait for a couple more days to see that big fat line!!

Love to you xxxxxx
 
Too much urine can give evaps. But they also say a faint line is a line nonetheless. HCG is supposed to double every 2 days. If I were you, I would keep testing every few days. Also, you might want to consider trying a digi.
 
And good luck with your tests!!
I know how frustrating those evaps are- I get those on almost every blue dye test I take.
 
I'm pretty sure that I see lines on both tests and unless I'm mistaken the evap would have totally evaporated by today leaving only what should be there ie the pink line! Whether it's a chemical or not only time will tell but those tests have picked up something, GLxx
 
Thank you for taking the time to look :) The more I think about it the more I think its too much urine.... I just got this feeling. Its so frustrating isnt it. I cant complain though.

I've got a digi but dont want to use it until im pretty certain.

Yeah these IC arent very nice. Think I will just see if AF arrives on Monday....thanks ladies x
 
No probs Megan - keep us informed of what you find on Monday!

Its always frustrating to be in the two week wait. Ive lost count of what cycle Im in now. Keep going!!

Hope you get your BFP soon. xxxx
 
it looks pink to me, so i dont think its an evap...did you FMU on yesterdays?? sometimes ladies test better in the evening with NON fmu,....

Hi, Yeah I used FMU with both. I may try a test at night. Thanks :)
 
I got better lines with evening wee. I see lines on both of yours. My doc says lines are always gonna vary because hcg levels will always vary in urine, so if you're really unsure, wait a couple days and test again or try to get a blood test. Good luck!
 
I had exactly the same thing in December, did you open up the tests right away? I went to the docs because I was unsure if chemical or not....she said tests shouldn't turn pink within timescale unless BFP ( Obviously) but i opened the ones I had up straight away....my doc put it down to a chemical but im still not sure that was the case..... maybe test again in a few days and dont open the test up.... Good Luck!! :hugs:

Up date... The witch arrived today. Thank you for all you comments, appreciated :)

I didn't open the test early but I'm pretty sure the lines were there because I dipped it in the pee for too long. I've now decided I don't want to keep doing tests the next time we try in may (hubby works away April) it does my head in and takes over my life. I'm just going to b'd lots and let nature take it's course and if I miss a period then I will test.

Good luck to everyone :) x
 
Sorry Megan. Good luck to you thismonth!
 
It's hard to say. usually evap lines arent the color the result line should be. I know its hard waiting and wondering. you can always get a digital test and try that in a day or so... I have been ttc since 9/2007 and all BFN
i also have pcos. hope all goes well for you
