Faint Line?

[Nikoel]

I just took an HPT (I've been feeling odd the past few days) and I got a VERY faint line.

I'm going to test again tomorrow when i first wake up...but I was wondering if any of you ladies got a very faint line? And if so what did it mean?

 

[karla]

A faint line is a positive line. I would restest again in a couple of days. My second line was faint and then I retested two days later and it was stronger. I'm praying for ya

 

[Nikoel]

Thank You Ladies for your thoughts!!

I am retesting tomorrow, just to make sure I didn't just want to see it so bad that I saw it... (am I even making sense?) I wish I had a digi cam so I could get a second opinion!!

Thank You Girls

I am still not sure that the line was there or I just wanted it to be so I'm going to test again in the morning with a different brand!! (Please keep your fingers crossed for me!

I agree, use a different brand... one where you aren't left scratching your head afterwards.

The first test I used was so simple, a dot either appeared or it didn't. If it appeared you are pregnant. Then my husband decided we should do another test just to be sure. So, we bought another brand where a cross was supposed to appear... well half the cross was dark and half was light and we were just all confused and decided to ignore that test.

In my opinion, simple tests are better!

Hope your next one comes back a BFP!!

Also if you want a fre test (insurance often requires this) I can refer you for one. or you can just go to www.optionline.org click on find a center and plug in your zip code (more accurate than city).

Took another one this morning (First Response) and it was empty And after a second opinion, I was probably just seeing things.

Oh Well... it will happen when God wants it to happen.

Nikoel, where are you in your cycle? It may still just be too early.

I'm still praying for you. Remember all in God's time...although I know how frustrating his time table can be at times. Maybe it's just too soon to test.

I would agree that it's too early to test.


I would say that a faint line is a positive, but only if it's read in the first 10 minutes or so. Because after that a faint line can appear but it is something to do with the test, and it's not that you're pregnant


Anyway, I would wait a few more weeks until you have skipped your period completely (as in it is around the time it would normally have FINISHED) and then test. (this is what I did and boy was it a positive line, bright pink or whatever colour it was ROFL. I did 3 of them because I could scarecely believe it)

 

[Nikoel]

When you get a positive, does it show up before the test line shows up? (I know it's placed before the test line on the stick) or does it sometimes take awhile?

When I tested positive, I seem to remember the line that indicates + showed up more slowly....

i tested 8 times b/c the first few were super faint. i did it and waited 10 minutes and came back and looked. the doc said it was so faint b/c it was before i even missed my period.... it was super early to be testing but the faint + i saw was a true one. good luck to you.

 

[Nikoel]

Thank You Everyone

The hardest thing is to keep remembering that God will make it happen when he wants for it to happen!

I tested 5 or so days early and I had a really faint line and I thought I was imagining it too so I tried another brand the next morning and I really had to strain to see a faint line. I tried yet another and it was a faint line again so I went in to get a blood test, which was + still a few days before my period was due. If you are covered, I would go get the doc to test so you don't drive yourself crazy (I know I did ) Good Luck!!
