Default pregnancy test question....

I dont know much about the different pregnancy tests. Do the internet cheapie test have evap lines? How long are supposed to look at athe results before they are invalid. I took one of the internet cheapies this a.m. with fmu and I forgot about it while I took a shower and got dressed. Then when I looked at it, it had the faintest 2nd line. But I was thinking by then it could have been an evap line.

Thanks

Hi There! I am brand new to this board.

I have lots of experience with the internet cheapie tests, well I've had lots experience with all kinds of HPTs and I do have to say that the internet cheapies are famous for evap lines.

I think the rule of thumb is that anything that shows after 10 minutes should not be considered an accurate result.

I've never used internet cheapies.. but I too have heard they get evap lines after a certain amount of time. Not sure how long though.. Melissa (WANNABEMOMMA) on the IVF board has a link of a great site that shows pics of different tests with and without evap lines...

GOOD LUCK!! I hope its a !
