Accumed pregnancy test?

Anyone use these kind of tests. They are called accumed and are from amazon. Are they known for false positives

    Do you have any FRERs ? At this point you would not have a false positive.

    @pachamama: I don’t. I thought was gonna start my period this weekend but I did not. I’m in cycle day 36. Odds are i just ovulated late. I’ve had bad cheapies before and last week I have some clinical guard give me false positives. I’m afraid I just have bad luck and it’s happening again with this brand. 🙃 I’ll have get some FRERs again.

    @Sams Mom: I’ll have to try those.

    I keep getting tests like this. Not sure if it’s cause I am pregnant or it’s just bad tests like the clinical guard ones. I’ll get another brand tomorrow. I’m sure that’ll give me the answer. Ugh I hate this limbo. My body has been so weird these past two weeks.

    My understanding is that most people have pretty wonky cycles for a little while after having a baby, and I believe you just recently had an LO in late July, right? Are you counting being on CD36 as in it's been 36 days since you stopped bleeding after giving birth? Have you had a period already, other than the lochia?

    I wonder if it could be a sign of some retained tissue. I know that caused me to still have a tiny bit of HCG after a D&C earlier this year. Perhaps your doctor could do an US to check.

    @smuckers: yeah I had my period already. I normally do and get right on track pretty quick but odds are I just ovulated a little late. I’m not too worried but I still test a few times to be sure cause I’m cramping a lot.

    @JennyPenny: I had a c section and he told me he got everything out but if this keeps happening then I’ll talk with him for sure!

    I honestly just think they don’t make tears like they used to. Some are poorly made and these cheapies can just give evaps and false positives. I’ve had it happen to me before several time in my ttc journey with both my daughters. I’ll test with a different brand today to be sure though.

    I’d just get a digital one at this point! When I was pregnant with DD, several tests were unclear until I took a digital a few days later.

    I hope whatever happens you find peace! And I really can’t believe you could be pregnant at 2 mos out! Impressive you like your husband that much .

    Well yesterday morning I took a test and it was negative however my period started. It’s light though. I hardly need a pad till today and even then I don’t need it much. It’s really just heavy spotting. I took a test this morning just for the heck of it and both of the tests have very very faint lines on them
    @Sams Mom: do you’re tests look like this or am I getting bad indents still?

    Im confused to why I’m bleeding and getting faint lines. Odds are if I am it won’t stick but idk

    I just wanted to let you know since I noticed you’ve posted a lot of squinters recently that I get an evap or faint line on every non-BFP test I take. I’m wondering if it’s something weird in system. Perhaps you have a similar thing going on, especially since you haven’t seen any progression and currently have your period so definitely are not pregnant. From what I’ve read in your posts you just had a baby, so having a light period isn’t odd at all.

    @Becky: yeah I’m mostly posting to see if I’m crazy and to update. I see stuff a lot so I need extra eyes to see. So who knows
