Internal workings of the CB dig preg test...

[puffins'mom]

Hi, just for those clearblue digital pregnancy test users.....

I was interested to know why there where 2 lines (one dark and one faint) on the strip inside the test but it said 'not pregnant', when most tests are postive when you get two lines....

I found this website which shows the internal workings and explanations of the strips inside!

https://www.clearblue.com/uk/HCP/pdf/CI_monograph.pdf

also i know some of you will say you shouldnt be pulling them apart, but if you read the instruction leaflet, it tells you to dismantle it, remove the battery, put a coin in its place, recycle the battery, and discard the rest of the test appropriately, hahaha who does that????

sorry for long message just thought i would post incase anyone is curious!

Hey guys, I thought I'd share this thread I did awhile back. These were the regular clearblue digital tests, not with the conception indicator. But I did a "progression" of the inside stick and of my lines from "not pregnant" to "Pregnant". Thought I'd share
