Question

Am I seeing phantom lines?

Okay so I'm not sure why, but I tested early....4 days before AF is due and between 8-10 DPO. At first I thought is was a BFN, but then I stared at it, and stared at it, and stared some more until l thought I saw something. It was an Answer brand test which I've heard is a good brand. I was pregnant a few months ago but lost it in an early MC so now we really really want a baby. I've felt so different this month. So similar to my first pregnancy and my SO keeps saying I'm pregnant so I'm afraid of breaking his heart. I have mild cramps and tightning in my abdomen and the occasional sore breasts and nausea. Long story short, I tested this evening around 7PM and thought I saw something but I'm not sure if it's positive. Almost looks like the outline of a positive if that makes sense. Please help. My SO banned me from peeing on anything else until AF is due :P

the tests you uploaded look negative, except for one but that one has been tweaked a bit too much, but 8 and even 10 dpo are very early still. i got my bfp on 12 dpo and many women have to wait till 14 dpo. the hcg is only produced after implantation which can start any time between 6 and 10 dpo.

I see what ur talking about with an outline. It looks like a white line when I stretch the pic. I've had those before, it's the antibody strip. When I had it, I wasn't pregnant, but it very well could be the start of something. Time will tell! Try again in a day or two.
Good luck! =))
