Wondfo evap line question - PIP

[CloudBee]

Okay, so here's my situation:

I took a Wondfo HPT this morning. We were running out the door, and I forgot to check it until a couple hours later. I know, first rule of testing is to not check a test outside of the appropriate time frame.

I have been known to check tests well after the fact, just for the thrill. I have never seen an evap line on Wondfos. Not even a faint white line.

So when I got home today, I checked the test that I had forgotten about. My intention was a quick glance, then toss it.

There are two lines. Both are colored. The positive line isn't even white, it's colored.

I don't chart, but use OPKs. I think I am about a week post O. So super early.

I took another test - negative. I have been drinking water all day and recently had a huge smoothie. So I'm guessing my urine is pretty diluted.

I plan to test again in the AM, but what has been your experience with Wondfo HPTs? I don't have my hopes up, but I keep looking for evap lines via Google images, and I don't see colored evap lines.

Here are my tests. Top is from the afternoon and is negative. Bottom is from the AM and shows two lines.

Notice how the test from this morning has a very narrow control line. Could that mean the test is defective?

The control line is narrow because it has evaporated and contracted.

That makes sense, thank you.

I've seen evap lines like that. You really can't tell anything from it, except that it's an evap line

Hmm I don't know but good luck.

Yeah, another vote for evap line. Plus 7DPO is waaayy early.

Fingers crossed though!

Thanks, ladies. I wish I had OPK evap line experience so I wouldn't be that crazy lady posting pictures of her HPTs online, lol.

[hannamarin]

No idea. Fingers crossed!

I know it is hard, but I would stop trying to over analyze the tests from today. If the one was in the normal window I would say it is a positive. I have not seen an evap line like that, but it could be possible. I don't think there is any way to know at this point (at least for today). Good luck!

Thanks. It's in the trash! I'm happy to have a place where I can type out what's on my mind and get input.

I'm going to PM you so you know who I am.

I've seen lots of comments about another bad batch of Wondfo's. I think 1st Tri and TTGP have a thread about them, exp date of 11/13.

Found a link to another site as well:
community.babycenter.com/post/a33537853/wondfo_hpt_-_bad_batches

I agree that its probably an evap line, but if its from this batch, it could be one of the false positives that have been reported.

[CloudBee]

Thanks for the batch info. Thankfully mine are from a different lot. I would be so annoyed, as I just ordered a new pack from Amazon. I need to get into the habit of Googling the expiration date when I get them in the mail to be safe.

Good luck sweetie!

Starry - the results def aren't valid outside the window of time.

[CloudBee]

Negative this morning, so I'm not going to test again until the weekend.

[barefootcontessa]

Good luck Cloud. FWIW I never get a BFP until a day or two before my period is due. I hope you are celebrating next weekend.

I still have my Wondfo tests from my BFP and my control lines/result line never got narrow from evaporating.

Good luck!

Sorry to hear that but like everyone else said, it's really early. Fingers still crossed.

Maybe it was a defective test then. Thanks for your feedback.
