Successful pregnancy after faint tests and cramps

Hi everyone, just looking for some advice really please 😊

My last 2 cycles were 26 days but I have been known to go 28 days and very rarely slightly longer.
Didn’t track ovulation just went by the rule of “it’s most likely to fall within this timeframe”
Day 26/27 I had some brownish discharge and thought my period was on its way but nothing!

I would now be on day 29 and have actually been having cramps and lower back pain since day 16!

Took abillion tests over the weekend all with very faint lines, took a clear blue early yesterday with a stronger line (but it would as it’s more sensitive??)

I wanted a clear answer so did a digi last night showing pregnant 1-2. Probably should have just done that from the start but ohwell…

Is it normal to see such faint lines? Are the weeks indicator actually reliable? Plus the cramping I’ve been having? Albeit intermittent but can be quite strong. I’m going insane googling chemical pregnancies, ectopic, missed miscarriages… after a very regretful abortion earlier this year.

I have 3 children and took one test with them all and that was it, certainly didn’t symptom spot or scour the internet (clearly I was a much more relaxed person back then!)

This baby is wanted and I know I am very fortunate for the 3 I have but it’s really worrying me.

I've had cramps throughout my pregnancy, it's very common. I only got faint line the day my period was due. Wait and test again in a few days, and stop Googling! There's nothing you can do about the outcome.
