9dpo, shadow.. but is it in the right spot or invalid.

Sabrina

So I know it’s still a little early to be testing but I did this morning because a lot of women on here have had a BFP at 9dpo. Well I took an easy @home test strip and I don’t think it’s positive But can anyone explain this shadow next to the control line!? It’s definitely just a shadow cause when I look straight at it I can’t see it. And it’s kinda a little TOO close to the control line , I think.. I’ve never used this brand so I’m not sure if it’s just an invalid test or not. Thank you for answering 😊
