Question:

Does this sound like an evaporation line to you??

I did a pregnancy test this morning with first morning urine.

It looked negative after 10 minutes so I assumed it was negative but I left it out.

I then looked at it again about 30 minutes later and there was a pretty strong positive line there.

I looked at it another 30 minutes later and the line has faded but is still there as a faint line.

Is this an evaporation line? Anybody else had this - were you pregnant?

I've used these tests quite a lot and never had this happen before!

  1. I would test again so that i get a clear line, if that happens again, you may be pregnant, and you should call the doc for the next step.


  2. i would test again hun, iv heard about evaportation lines (although iv never had 1).

    i really hope its a BFP fingers crossed all the best xx

  3. i would re test flower. i did the same thing and it turned out mine was positive! im not saying yours will be the same obviously but i would deff re test in the morning when the hormone is strongest.

    good luck i hope you get the answer you want.  

  4. I had something like this happen to me. After the development time of 5 minutes there was no line. I threw the test in the bin and went about my business. About an hour later for some reason I got it out of the bin and had another look. There was a positive line there, as the test dried out more it faded a lot but I was pregnant. Take another test, I bet you are too!

  5. Good luck it sounds good but.......its best to go to see a doctor then you will now for sure

  6. If it wasn't the color of the dye in the test it could of been. And it really depends on what test you take too. I have never came across an evaporation line. When I took them in the past if it was a neg at first it stayed neg. The month I got pregnant this time I took one really early and thought it was neg. and looked at it a lot later and it was really faint positive but I just thought that it was an evaporation line or something. Then when I was about 4 days away from my period I took another couple tests and all of them were dark positives. And I am 15 weeks pregnant now.

    Take another one in a day or two and see if it gets darker faster just to be sure.  

  7. id re test just to make sure a evaporation line tends to be almsot clear

    my  cousin had loads with evaporation lines she wouldnt accept she wasnt pregnant!! the was no line for her just very clear almsot invisable lines!!

    if u have a strong positive line think its safe to say u are but retest just to be on safe side

    good luck x x x x

  8. If it hasn't come up within the recommended time (usually 10 minutes), then the answer is void. I'd recommend doing another test in a few days as it may still have been too early.

    I have seen an evaporation line appear on a negative test, they don't really mean anything.

    Good luck.
