Save yourself the heartache & only read tests within the time frame. After about 10 minutes, the line you're seeing is an evap, not a bfp. Most of the time, a true bfp will come up in 3-5 minutes at the most. I would wait at least a couple of days before retesting. Gl!

Any time after your missed period is when they consider the pregnancy tests 99% accurate. If it's after your period and you are seeing what you think is a faint line, test again in two days to give yourself time to build up more hCG. Good luck!

If AF is late and you see a line appear within the time specified on the test, chances are you a preggers. Do not read results after time specified. I've had to learn to the hard way. Evaps are the devil. Good luck!
