You're pregnant, you're pregnant! Congratulations

I only got a faint positive and that was 5 days after period was due. Nurse at my GP's said to test again 2 days later - did and the line was darker. Had 12 week scan last week!

Good luck

I had a very faint line at first (a few days before my period was due) which got darker over the following few days. I used a super-sensitive test stick that I got mail order (really cheap - about £4 for 10 sticks).

I think I tested myself 9 times altogether!!

It depends on how sensitive your test is. But if there's a line, apparently its positive no matter how faint it is so congratulations!!

First Response is the most sensitive test, although I never got a dark line on it. I got a faint positive with FR the same day as I got a negative with a Clear Blue digital, and since I'm now 22 weeks, I'd say that FR had it right...

So yes, would say you're pregnant!

I had a faint line on a boots test 2 days before i was due on. Little monster now 1yr old. I also did a first responce and a tesco's the same day (oh my i was a little nuts!). Clearest line was a boots one but faint.

I had a really feint positive with a boots test. Went to Family Planning Clinic the next day and they did a dip test. Again a feint positive but as nurse said a + is a + however feint. I was only 3/4 days late.
20 weeks now so all the best.

I think you probably are pregnant.

I got a really really faint line of a sainsburys test at about 7DPO within about 5 minutes - thought I may have imagined it. next day I did same test - slightly darker line but still super faint.

Got a first response next morning and got faint but def there line again within time limit, next day darker etc etc

If it appears within the time limit, chances are its positive.

If it appears after the time limit then its probably an evap line.

Good luck

Great, thanks. I'll give it a day or two and try with a first response one

If faint and within the right time frame for reading it probably is positive.

The reason I asked about shop bought/internet is that I did an ebay cheapie and it was so faint I had to hold itup to the light, decided I was imagining it (2 years ttc!) but next day couldn't shake the feeling something was up and did a first response - dark line within seconds.

Somewhere there is a site with the sensitivity of different tests on it.

Thanks for the advice all! I'm just so impatient!

fingers crossed...

The first test was a shop bought one (first response) and the second one was an internet bought one

My cycle is still a bit all over the place since I came off the pill, but I thought my period was due 2 days ago?

I had a very faint + with my second pregnancy, she is now 5!
I always thought a + is a + if you get what I mean.
Maybe the digital test is less sensitive, I take it its still very early? Maybe wait a couple of days and try again!

Good luck! xx

Faint should mean positive. Is it very early on to test? If so then I would wait a few days and retest, as if you ovulated later in your cycle it may take a little while longer before you get a darker line. Have no experience of digital ones, sorry. I had a negative test this time at 4 weeks exactly - retested a few days later when I started to feel sick and it was positive.

How late are you ?

Digital tests aren't very sensitive so possible that they aren't picking up the pregnancy but a sensitive one is.

What sort of sensitive test - was it shop bought or ebay ?

Hi! I've been trying to get pregnant for about 5 months, and could really do with some advice. I did a preganacy test last night (one of the really sensitive ones) which had a VERY faint line i.e. could see it if held in the right light. I then did another one this morning and it was a shade darker but still very faint. Was by now feeling very unsure, so went and bought a digital test which came back negative!

So now dont know whether preg or not

Any suggestions hugely welcomed...
