I took a Clearblue easy Pregnancy test this afternoon and it has a +. The line showed up within 3 min!!!! It is a blue dye test but it was there! Is this accurate?

i'm sure it is accurate but you could always test again using another brand or same whatever you would prefer.

If you followed the instructions then YES, it is accurate!

Thanks all I am going to go buy a pink dye test to be sure the blue dye make me weary because of the evap lines! My DH is pretty upset though!

please please use a pink dye test (you can see my photos on my profile of a positive with blue dye test- blood negative).  i am sure it is for real, congratulations!!!!!!! but do follow with a pink dye test.

Yeah I've gotten a few false positives on the blue dye ones as well. I would honestly take one with the pink dye, a digital, or get a blood test. I don't trust the blue ones at all and I probably would say congrats except that you keep taking FRER too and getting negatives on those......

I took a pink dye FRER and NEG! I am not TTC I love being a mommy to just Julian he needs his time to be a baby, but I WANT to know! I have not missed my AF so will wait and see thanks ladies!

wow!! well congrats on your non pregnancy,. I was feeling pretty bad for you. I never ever knew the blue dye tests could give you a false + that would be devastating for some ttc

by spade22, Oct 21, 2008 12:03PM
False positives are EXTREMELY RARE if the instructions are followed correctly.  Since Linzola has had 2 positive results with 2 different types of tests, there is a high probability she is pregnant.  The difference in the pink dye test is likely from a difference in sensitivity of this test compared to the others.

i got a false positive on a blue dye test - you can see the pic on my profile.  blood the same day was less than 5.  it does happen, those tests are horrible!

by Linzola1, Oct 22, 2008 02:22PM
