16 dpo should my tests be this faint and shouldn't the digital say 2-3? Worried it's a chemical. Am driving myself crazy googling and researching and crying all the time :(

ClearBlue Digi's are FAMOUS for panicking people - the weekly indicator bit can often tell lies.
So, if you have a positive test, you're preggo... unfortunately thats the only thing you can really count on as a sure thing at the moment as it's really too early to tell whether its going to be viable or not just yet.

Try and calm down and just ride the storm... we've all been there and its horrible but its all you can do.

Try and flip that on its head if you can - you want to be sending positive thoughts through your body.... first part of being a mamma is constant worry, the second part is trying to make everything feel ok for everyone else Grin

I'm almost 32 weeks now and STILL fretting... welcome to motherhood!

First of all, congrats!

Secondly, stop testing and googling, you are not doing yourself any favours. Today you are pregnant. It can go either way from here, and obsessive testing will not change the outcome in any way. Try to enjoy it as much as you can, stress is not good for baby.
