    Like Lulu2 said, you've probably seen enough BFN's in the past to know that you're now seeing a line. Off to bed for you, at least if you're asleep you can't stress about it and when you wake up it will be time to POAS again!

    Good luck

    POAS @ 5am all BFN? But wee much paler than when I got the BFP yesterday (I hadn't been the the toilet ALL DAY? Going slowly mad. If AF doesn't show up by Monday I'll go the the docs - AF offcially due today and have some mild cramping and backache - so prob a false positive - I think the line came up too late I have NEVER had ANY line before tho?!?

    On the other hand - feeling unwell - lump in back of throat, dry mouth plus my episodes of low BP earlier in the week?!? Also - this will sound weird - my nipples are "looser" - more space "behind" them and peaks of BBs feel "lumpy" - i know my BBs well as they get close examination for two weeks every month! But maybe just wishful thinking?

    Fingers crossed for you hun!

    FWIW, I always get faint lines (maybe that's because I test so darn early LOL). They do get progressively darker as time goes on. I would suggest doing two different brands of test each day, and see how you go! You might not need to go to the Dr after all

    Question

    Wwll more than an hour after I POAS I looked at them again (I know - bad idea) and 3 out of 4 (yes 4 - i'm obsessed) had a REALLY faint line - heaps fainter than yesterday - but my wee was paler too. What are the odds of 3 evap lines on 3 diff brands? Who knows, just more to torture myself with...being an obsessive control freak can be REALLY annoying sometimes. Thanks for all the support Girls!!! I'd be even worse without you all

    Control Freak - that the lines get stronger. Have been following your journey for a little while now. I don't think 3 evap lines for 3 different brands would be very likely at all - actually I've never seen an evap line and I'd hate to think how many hpt's I've taken over the years.

    ** GOOD LUCK **

    The same thing has happened to me today CF! Very very faint line on Clear Blue brand. I have had a false positive with them before , but if you've had lots of negatives previously , you get pretty good at spotting a difference! for you (and me ) hun. Loads of babydust and sticky vibes. Test again tomorrow morning. Like AJC has said, I doubt that 3 different brands will have evap lines. Can't wait to hear your news tomorrow. Goodluck.

    I PIAC at 8 DPO and got the faintest line - you could only see it if i held it up to the sunlight. I left it 2 days and got a stronger BFP.....good luck with it all !!!
