Super squinter... am I just seeing things?

So... we're not planning to try for baby number 3 for a few months yet, but yesterday I noticed some light blood streaking through some discharge and it’s not yet time for my period. It’s gone today, which seemed odd, so I took a cheapo pregnancy test this morning to check. I think it’s negative, but upon closer inspection I thought I might be seeing the faintest of lines. I just need some verification that I’m just seeing things and it’s definitely negative!

We would be happy to have another baby, even if it wasn’t planned, but I’m now feeling a little scared by the prospect as our twin girls are only 10 months old! Still, closer age gaps have happened. Anyway… here’s the test for your keen eyes and photoshop skills.

I'm not sure.... could the streaks in your discharge be related to ovulation? I had something like that a few weekends ago (I thought I was 4dpo but symptoms said otherwise). I'd wait until AF is late and test again.

Did you take the picture before the time limit (usually ten minutes or so?)

It could be, Pisghetti. I thought it might also be implantation bleeding? It's so faint that I honestly can't tell if it's even there or if it might be an evap. The pic was taken right near the end of the 10 minutes.

I can see something, but it doesn't seem as wide as the control line, and ime any bfp has been the same width, no matter how faint it is.
Can you test again tomorrow?

I just tested again this afternoon and this is what it looked like. Evap again?

I'd say it's a positive as I had a million tests the same when I was the number 3 Grin

I was testing ridiculously early. Must have been about 8-9 dpo.

Good luck Op.

Hi, I can't see anything on the first pic, but must admit I see a line on the second one which I would say was positive. Maybe leave it a couple of days and see if it is stronger.

I can definitely see a very faint line on that second line OP, congratulations! Maybe test again in a few days to make sure it gets stronger.

All the best!x

Cn I just say thank you for this thread. I was convinced all my tests were neg until reading it and now I have had my bfp. Thank you!

I would say yes. My BFP was this light. Tested the next day and it was a bit darker. The day after that it super dark. Congrats!
