Faint 2nd line . Am I pregnant?

Hi. I'm on my first round of ICSI IVF and I am 5 days away from the official test date they gave me. So right now I'm 8 days post a 5 day embryo transfer. The doctors said wait until day 14 to test but couldn't help myself as some online forums say they tested earlier. I have a v faint 2nd line and just really wanted opinions. Could this turn into a bolder line as the next 5 days go on or should I prepare myself for the worst ? We have been TTC for 16 months .

It's hard to read the photo, there's a shadow over the test line area. But yep, broadly speaking that looks positive to me.

Looks like a line to me, colour and everything x

TurquoiseWeekend · 30/09/2018 18:48

My first was fainter than that and I'm now 18 weeks pregnant. Looks positive to me! Fingers crossed x

Yellowsunredroses · 30/09/2018 18:49

Positive Smile

Looks good to me!! Congrats Flowers

Iwantaunicorn · 30/09/2018 18:53

I’m definitely seeing a line, congratulations! Mine were fainter than that 11 dpt with twins. Fingers crossed for you, and congratulations!

tastylancs · 30/09/2018 20:29

That's looking good to me too! Whoohooooo!

Sivyer · 30/09/2018 21:26

Thanks everyone !!!! Praying you are all right. Going to do another each day now and see if the line gets stronger. Will keep you informed

I wouldn't even say that was particularly faint, good luck OP! Thanks

Eleanor90 · 30/09/2018 21:44

Not faint, that’s a good positive especially for 8dpt! Congrats Flowers

pemb · 30/09/2018 22:08

Wow defo positive congratulations xxx

Sivyer · 30/09/2018 22:12

Wow really ? I am so shocked and overwhelmed as I was sure this line looks v v faint and at first questioned whether the tests come like this with a faint line which just goes bold if positive. V optimistic though with all the responses

Don't judge how pregnant you are by the depth of colour - that way madness lies!!

Sivyer · 01/10/2018 08:26

Hiya So I did a clear blue and a test strip test this morning using the first urine this time and I got faint line on both . See photos !!! V excited now as I'm sure this can't be my trigger shot as that was 16 days ago now.

What does everyone think ?? Can I get excited

Definitely! Congratulations op, two lovely lines Thanks

Talcott2007 · 01/10/2018 08:31

That's very clearly positive. No question about it. Time to get excited Grin

CountessVonBoobs · 01/10/2018 08:33

Those are both clear positives. You're pregnant!

Now STOP TESTING. More tests can't tell you anything new. Unless and until you experience bleeding, you are pregnant. Take it one day at a time. End of finger-wag. Smile

Sivyer · 01/10/2018 08:48

CountessVonBoobs. Ah I just wanna see the line darker.. but someone said don't judge by the darkness of colour ? My official test day is still not til Friday. So I'll pray I don't bleed and just wait and do a test Friday. 4 sleeps xx

Congratulations!

You can take paracetamol.
When I have a cold I put fresh lemon slices in a mug, with full sugar lemonade and microwave it and take 2 paracetamol with it.
Sounds gross but it's actually nice and helps!

MaverickSnoopy · 05/10/2018 06:37

Congratulations!!! Definitely positive.

You can't take much but can take paracetamol and I usually have a honey and lemon drink (manuka honey has healing properties). Rest up.

TokenGinger · 05/10/2018 08:52

Congratulations, OP! 16 months of waiting has paid off. Xx

Sivyer · 06/10/2018 00:22

Thanks all xx
