OK...i'm shaking - can hardly type ...how faint is too faint? I have jsut POAS and looked and saw nothing (as per the last thousand over the last 10 months) then I liiked agian and thought I saw something - got out close to light and thought ...maybe...and now there is def a REALLY faint line - but def a pinky/purple line. I am CD 28...could I be UTD ...I am crying as I type....please advise....
lay down with you feet in the air darlin, until you feel less faint, and then come back and maybe try another POAS it's more important that you don't faint right now. Have a glass of water and raise your feet up while lying down ok
Omigawd, settle hun - you certainly have the right username!!!
Go to the shops and get more pee sticks. Get a couple of boxes of 3. My record is 9!
Do another in the morning so it might be a bit stronger. When that one comes up do a few more for fun. Hell you can even get silly and put one in each room then run around like a mad thing looking at them all .
A line is a line and if you have seen enough negs in the past, its almost too much to handle .
Wow - was just looking at your signature, can't believe we've both been POAS for the same length of time!!
Sounds pretty good to me - hope it sticks for you!!!
I'm going to say the opposite though...try to keep calm and try not to get your hopes up too high until you get a stronger result, which by the sounds of it will come if you got a faint line pretty quickly.
I'd say if you tested again tomorrow or the day after, you should get a stronger result.
I don't mean to rain on your parade at all, but just had the same thing happen to me this week. I am up to the same cycle number as you and just POAS from Thursday last week until 2 days ago (went 5 days overdue with AF too) and got the faintest of faintest lines ever on like 5 tests...kept testing for a darker line each day but never got one. Got my AF 2 days ago
I really hope your one sticks!!! Good luck.

Sounds like a BFP to me! Definitely test again in the morning with FMU, you may get a stronger line. I got a faint line at the GP in Feb of last year and went on to have my beautiful DS2!
I would just like to say, that the same thing happened to me this week. To the extent I took THREE tests before finally building up the courage to see the doctor (i work with him, and I was quite nervous) Got my results today! BFP!! I
So keep those fingers crossed hunny, this could be it! =)
Thanks for all the support... i would be lost without the expertise and understanding of the BB people.
I havn't managed to get another BFP...so I am declaring myself NOT UTD. There is more evidence against and I need to stay calm and rational.
I have my usual AF type pains plus a back ache...so am planning for the worst ...well AF anyway.
The evidence for Pg? Tired, dizzy, sick feeling in back of throat, dry mouth (awful all day), burping (WTF?) Also haven't manged another dark urine specimen -all fairly pale.???
But the lack of another BFP say NO...I am going to respect the 6 (4 + 2) POAS that said I have not succeeded ...but will live to fight another day....my baby is out there!!!
When is AF due? I got AF type pains when I just found out I was pg both times, I was sure she would arrive at any moment! When I got a backache with DS2 it was a dead give-away to me that I was pg. Don't give up hope yet!
Thanks Trish ...you have given me hope!!! although I am also scared to hope... AF due today she usually arrives day 28 - 29ish...but a few cycles hit 30-31?
I am also very emotion ATM ...but this may not be just hormones! Thanks again for the advice and especially the HOPE
I also got strong AF cramps/feeling right before I got my last BFP. I only did a HPT because I had a strange urge to & got a pleasant surprise.
So I wouldnt give up just yet.....
If you go to your GP and explain that you're going crazy with anticipation you may be able to have a blood test, which will be able to tell you for sure whether you're pregnant or not immediately. I had a false negative when I tested a few days after my period was due so even if a home test doesn't immediately show up anything, that doesn't necessarily mean you're not pregnant. Good luck!
