The last two months I have had faint positive tests from 12dpo and then a really late period (a week late). The same seems to be happening this month, although showing up earlier. I'd like to be optimistic and say that I have had a bunch of the same preg symptoms as with my son, and feel different from the last time. But if this does end the same way I'm starting to worry that there's something else at play here that is causing the hcg, because three times in a row seems a little unlikely!!
