Faint positive on Pregnancy test

Hi Everyone,

Here goes....

My period is due tomorrow.  I did a test on Sunday and got a very faint positive line.  I then did another one on Tuesday and got another faint line, but not so faint as the Sunday test.

I know this probably means I am very early pregnant, but just a bit worried that the second test was still very faint.   And I guess I'm impatient, and just want to know for sure (without going to Dr)

Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you!  x

I'd say if you did the test twice and they both came up positive then you might want to go and see your doctor and get the blood tests done because i'd say you are pregnant. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!

Belly expanding is not a sure sign of pregnancy though, it could be just a really really bad fart building up. ROFL Had to be said, couldn't resist.

You are pregnant whether the line is faint or not.Wait a week or so and the line will show up stronger but you will still be pregnant lol.

You will have to go to the docs sooner or later anyway.

I would say you are pregnant.  Try taking the test as soon as you get up in the morning, this is when the hormones are the most concentrated.

Wait until your period is about 5-7days late and try the test again.

Advice? What do you want me to say?

You're pregnant, if you go through with it you will likely suffer morning sickness, another random  problem of two just because our babies like us to suffer, you'll be uncomfortable, then you'll give birth about 40 weeks give or take a couple after you conceived, and you'll then have sore boobs, poopy nappies, and sleepless nights for a while but you'll keep telling yourself that it's all worth it - and you'll be right. During this whole time you'll be posting about all sorts of things on minti, asking questions you never thought you would, and getting support and advice from the most unlikely people, but it's all good.

Next question? LOL

Re: Faint positive on Pregnancy test

Thank you for your advice, but this will be my second baby. 

I was more after advice on the pregnancy test....what it means that the second test line was still faint...etc, etc.

I think I have realised that the only thing I can do is wait......wait to do another test, wait to see if my period shows up, wait to start 'feeling' pregnant.  I'm just excited, so I want to know NOW for sure, you know?

Re: Faint positive on Pregnancy test

A feint line simply mean that the hormone levels the test looks for are not yet strong enough to make a huge impression. They build up slowly and within another few days to a couple of weeks there will be a strong dark line if you test again. But the fact that they are there at all means that if you're not pregnant I'm a monkey's uncle. The lines usually are feint until after the time when the period is due, thats why they recommend testing after missing a period, even though the tests are sensitive enough to pick up traces of the hormone before it is fully in your system, thus the feint line result.
