blessedwithabeauty · #1 May 1st, 2012, 08:28 PM

So i got a very pretty faint but definitely there and definitely pink! Bfp on an frer within the time limit, right around 3 minutes...by 20 mins or so it had faded a lot...i can still sorta see it but it doesn't have color now.. am i pg or not?? Help! Will test again in the am.

Btw, my ticker is wrong, i am 12 dpo.

Definitely believe the lines. I hear it all the time, and I try and pass it on as often as possible. If you see a line, no matter how faint, you're probably positive.

But i have never heard of a bfp fading that fast before- and i have had evaps, so not *all* lines can be trusted...

If you seen a pink line within the time limit then I would say it is pretty accurate!

Well, just to update this, i took a clear blue easy digital test this morning that came back a bfn. And i did find something online about some women experiencing the rapid-fade bfp with first response, which are usually not true bfp's.
Upsets me because i had an intense reaction when i saw that second pink line show up immediately!

Sorry about the BFN

I have seen the lines that pop up immediately but then fade away but I've never seen a line that lingered for 3 minutes and then faded away. Can you post a pic of the original test? It makes me wonder if it was a faulty test or something. In any case, good luck...I hope the next couple of days brings a true BFP!

Ive read about this happening and most companies will tell you that tests that do that are BFN's..if youre still early there is still time and I'll keep my fingers crossed..

I have had a faint pink line when the urine went across the test and it lasted a couple minutes but went away,I was not pregnant.

I have experianced that too. just the dye running across it says not to read the test until the 3 mins is up.

I am sorry about your BFN. I am no longer a fan of FRER. The last two months I had what I thought were faint lines. Happened to be evaps or those false bfp. I won't use them anymore. I think I will try Answer now.

Yeah, the frer's used to be so good but i guess not anymore! This line wasn't just the dye running across it...i have seen that, too, but this one lingered for a good 10-15 minutes and was sooooo pretty! Thanks for all your input, ladies! No more frer's!! I will add a pic of it if i can...it is so convincing!
