2nd line showing up later on FR?

I, like many of you I suppose, am a serial HPT'er. After having a Depo shot 8 months ago, and because I'm still nursing my baby who'll be 1 next month, I haven't had a period in forever so I'm always testing. Well, I've used First Response a million times and it's never given me ANY kind of evaporation line. I've been kind of suspicious of being pregnant since about 2 1/2 weeks ago I had fertility symptoms and unprotected sex, and about a week ago I had a little spotting for 2 days (I thought it was going to turn into a period, but didn't even get to be enough to get on my panties or pad, just a little when I wiped). It was very similar to what I had when I got pregnant with my daughter, but with her I tested + a few days later. about 4 days ago I took a FR and it was -, so I put it aside. I always keep them for a few days, don't ask me why. LOL. But day before yesterday I was getting something from my dresser where it was and I saw that there was a second line. A very obvious pink second line, about half as dark as the control line. I was like "OMG!" and I ran out and bought another 2-pack of FR Tests. The first one I took right away even though I had just peed and drank a soda. It was -.I saved the next one for FMU and when I used it it looked -. I had to go to work yesterday but when I got home in the afternoon, I went in the bathroom and there it was, a second line. it was a faint pink line, with the top and bottom of it darker than the middle. Now I'm going crazy wondering if this is a sign of very early pregnancy. Especially since FR never gives me an evap line like some other brands. I would go and buy another test but I am stranded today since my car is broke down and dh is at work. I guess I should really wait a couple days anyway. Has this ever happened to anyone? Thank you for reading this novel. LOL. Tonya, Miranda 2, Mikayla 10 1/2 mos

I just dug through my trash for you!! :) I took a FR this morning at 3 a.m. (I couldn't sleep thinking about it) and it was definitely negative. I am only about 8 days past when I think I ovulated so its still kind of early. Anyway, I read your post and went and dug through the trash to find the test and it was still completely negative. No second line of any kind. I hope this helps a little! Good luck.

I had that happen with an EPT, I had never got an evaperation line on one myself and out of the 3 pack I had, I stuffed them all back in the box after I used them, then a few days after the last test I took, I went to throw it away and looked at them real quick and only one had an obvious line on it...but like I said it had been a few days. The others had no sign of a line. I havn't gotton any tests since then, except one at planned parenthood, but they look at 3 min and then throw away, and that was negative. I still think I am pregnant, but its a long story behind my situation so I won't get into it right now.
