I took this test this morning when I got home from work, it looked negative when I last looked at it within the first minute or so, so I went to bed. When I got up, about 3 hours later, I looked at it again and this is what it showed. I have read that this particular brand only has a sensitivity of 100 and AF isnt due til Tuesday. So, I need opinions..... is this probably an evap line? I am refusing to think otherwise until I test again in a day or 2 but it is driving me crazy!

i'm guessing evap, but only because it doesn't seem to have color to it. that said, it doesn't mean you can't have a real BFP tomorrow or the next day! fingers crossed for you

If it was a FRER I'd be more convinced it could be a positive, but I just don't trust blue dye, so i dont even wang go guess lol. Do retest tho and update us!!

I dont trust the blue dye either! That is exactly why im not getting my hopes up yet. I will have to just wait and see in a couple of days. Thanks for replying!

Looking at the test hours after is such a bad idea! I know- I did it and got my hopes so high only to have then dashed. Just don't do it!
I hope you do get a BFP in the next couple of days but I don't think this test tells you anything.

Since the line appeared so late, it's probably a evap. I recommend throwing out tests after 10 minutes!
It's still early though! POAS again soon!

Ugh, blue dye is the devil! Fingers crossed for you for this cycle, there is still hope.

My BFP showed up about twenty minutes after the time limit. But it was on a pink dye test. If there is any color it's not likely an evap. I'd test again with a FRER. Good luck!!

Definitely test again with a FRER!!!! Keeping my fingers crossed for you!!!

Blue dye tests are horrible. Keep testing, but with a frer!!
FWIW, the same thing happened to me on a frer...and then 3 days later I got a BFP.

I plan on testing again in the morning if no AF and I will make sure to get a pink dye test. I am not sure if that result showed up in 10 minutes or 2 hours. I looked at it right aeay and didnt see anything so I went to bed. If I was positive it had shown up within the time frame I would be excited, but I dont know. 
I will find out tomorrow I guess! Thanks for your input!

This is the photo I meant to post of yesterdays test. The line is blue, but so light I think it is an evap line unfortunately.

I dunno... my BFP (with blue dye test I bought by accident) was just as faint, I immediately took a digi and it said Pregnant pretty quickly! So I say NOT an evap and FX... test again!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would totally test again later today. Hold your pee for a few hours! I wouldn't be able to wait until tomorrow if I were you

@fotolori1: it's hard with you not knowing how long it took to show up but I see color in it and I have took so many blue dye test that never steered me wrong even tho I have heard things about them now but good luck with testing again and fx for you

I can easily see the line in both pics, but I have no experience with evap lines or trouble with a blue dye test, so I'm just not sure. I'm a big fan of digitals that clearly spell it out for you

Is this an EPT test? I also took one and my line was very faint, even though it was quite dark on a FRER. Yours seems the line is tinged blue, ever so slightly which makes me think it's not an evap line. I would confirm with a FRER asap!

Thank you thanks everyone!
@Runnerd: thats so sweet of you! I am a nervous wreck!
I am going to try and wait until tomorrow!! Is an evap line usually a different color? I have to work tonight, so how long should I hold my pee to make equivilant to my fmu? Anyone know?

@fotolori1: i would stop drinking for a few hours and then try again but i don't think you need to go the equivalent of overnight, 8hrs, before testing. i'd say 3 should be good enough. how many DPO are you? thinking lots of good thoughts for a 
for you!

I see lines in both pics you posted! I don't have any experience with evap lines though.
I don't know how you could wait until tomorrow! fingers crossed for you!

Please please please do not buy blue dye tests. If you must buy blue line tests, please don't buy plus sign ones as they tend to run. If you must buy plus sign tests, do NOT read them after 10 minutes, as any line you see will be really hard to discern whether it's real or not.

I see lines in both pictures that you posted! Normally I'd be skeptical of blue dye tests but the fact that both tests have lines gives me a lot of hope! I'd retest with a pink dye ASAP

@fotolori1: if you can hold for 2 hours, that is ideal. Try and use a FRER.

@Running Elley: Just fyi, my understanding was that those are two pictures of one test.
That being said, I'm inclined to agree that even with the wait it looks legit. You didn't look at it past maybe 5 minutes, until the 3 hours. That line could have appeared within the normal window and you just didn't see it till later. And for what it's worth, all my tests were blue dye last time, and they were real. I've had no trouble with those.

It was the same test, just 2 different pictures of it. I will get a pink dye test and wait 2 hours and see what happens! Today I am 15 dpo. My temp is still a little up. 98.2 with my coverline being around 97.72 (per FF). Last month it dropped to my coverline on day 15 and below on day 16 and I started.

@fotolori1: You have to let us know asap! I love seeing good news on here! Fingers crossed for you, and lots of baby dust!

I think I just bought the wrong one! I was in a hurry to get to my sons school to pick him up and I dont think I got the early result one. Is this one just as good??
apricot / 386 posts
AF is due tomorrow so will this one pick up a low hormone level as well??

@fotolori1: I got a positive on this exact brand at 8DPO. This is what I consider a FRER. Pink dye with a line, not the plus sign.

I hadn't seen ones that had regular and digital. May pick that up to confirm wondfo results when/if the time comes.

Well, looks like no good news this month. BFN on the first response. I waited 2 hours to test, so I dont think it is because I didnt use my fmu. Oh well.....
