Unsuccessful IUI

Line eyes 🤓🤓🤓 👁️

Hi all, can anyone else see a VVFL on this or is it my imagination? For context I am only 6DPO after my first IUI (no self-discipline to wait 🫣). Thanks for any/all responses! Update: Thanks ladies, did another test using a different brand and got the same VVFL. Hubbie says he can’t see anything 😆
