Invalid pregnancy test

So I did a test earlier it looked negative and put it on the side and came back a few hours later and there is a faint line.

Had anyone had this before and actually been pregnant.

I also did an ovulation test at the same time and when I came back to that it was quite dark too.

I know I can't read it as positive but maybe just wishful thinking

That would be an evap line. You have to look at it within the time on the instructions. I would just keep testing every few days or wait until your missed period to test.

That would be an evap line if it came up a few hours later. Try using the red dye stealers they are pretty good

what's a dye stealer??

I looked at my test out the time frame and there was a line which I thought was an evap, I did another test 1 days later as I still hadn’t got my period and it was positive. There could be a chance but to be sure just test again in a few days xx

Do you have a photo??

That looks like an evap to me, it has no color

mine looked like the first pic I just don't think the lighting was all that great

I do think was likely an escape as did one today and couldn't see anything

I do see it but these tests always had evaps for me I had to stop using them! X

see this is the first time it's happened

And IV been using these ones a while

I'm so not meant to be a mother.

My kids won't listen to me get into stuff when they know they aren't supposed to. Telling me no all the time. Only listen to their dad. Laughs when I correct them. I spend most of my time yelling at them because they don't want to listen to me at all. My husband said that I shouldn't have kids. And I am believing him on it. I was never meant to be a mother now. I won't hurt my kids I just want to disappear and make everyone else's lives better without me.

One and done… or not?

32ftm. I’m starting to feel so much pressure to have another baby soon as I wean from breastfeeding so they can be close in age and be friends, but I don’t feel ready for pregnancy and newborn trenches again 😭 my husband and I are all we’ve got. Having just one baby without a village has been really tough. Am I being unrealistic wanting another one soon?

Baby #2??

I really want baby number 2 and am thinking of doing it via IUI as a solo mama!
Has anyone had any experiences with it 👀

Tests

So I had a blood test at the drs bc I keep getting positive tests when the blood test was negative what could this mean? Hubby says the tests are negative and said he can’t see anything. Negative image down below.

Am I pregnant?

I lightly spotted almost 5 days ago, which is not common for me before my period.
My period was supposed to come today. I should have tested in the morning but its 5:30pm.
Is there a second line??

Anyone have this happen before?

We were not trying to conceive, used protection and had sex on week 2 of my cycle (accidentally on my peak ovulation day). Week 3 we had Flu A. Week 4 my period did not come (it’s very regular). I tested and it was negative (2 different brands).
What should have been week 2 of my next cycle (now 6 weeks post last period), I had light red/ pink spotting for one day when I wiped. The following week, I tested again, still negative, but this time almost all the dye was in the negative space, which I’ve never seen happen before. The area where it shows one horizontal line for negative and a plus sign for positive, the horizontal line was super faded at the 3 minute mark, and the negative vertical line in the next window was VERY dark. Now I’m on week 8 of all this, period did not show up yesterday. Nothing in my life has changed (no additional stress, no other illness, no changes in diet or exercise, etc).

Has anyone gone through this and NOT been pregnant? I’m super nervous as we thought we were done having kids.

PS. I know I should go get a blood test, does anyone know if urgent care will do that? I’m past being convinced by a pee test.
