Faint BFPs, your experiences please!

[~clover~]

With DS I did 2 test the same brand. The first was very faint. I wasn't due for AF for another week, so I was only just pg. That's why it was faint - low levels of hcg. The second I did 2 days later. Still faint, but I kinda knew I was pg & I'm pretty sure you are too.

Congrats!

I was 4 days late - doc needed to get out his magnifying glasses to try to see the line.

Now i am 14 weeks!

My experience with faint lines is not positive I'm afraid. I've had 4 pregnancies but only 1 that's gone past 5 weeks. With the early losses my HPTs were really faint and did not get darker as the days went on. With one of the pregnancies I got a negative result in the middle of 4 positive ones (two + one - two +) - I then tested positive with a BT but the HCG had halved two days later so we knew what to expect.

With this pregnancy I had a faint positiveHPT 7 days after O so at about 20dpo and by the next day it was a very clear positive.

I have seen lots of ladies with faint + HPTs that have gone on to have healthy pregnancies, this is just my experience with them.

I'd suggest you head off to your GP for a BT and ask what your HCG level is when you get your results so you can compare it to the next one if it is positive (and I hope it is).

Best of luck.

I had faint pos from 11 dpo and they didn't get that much darker all the way up 5wks and we have a happy healthy baby girl. I d say congratulations!!!!

Sorry to say that my faint BFP was followed by my late, slightly heavier than usual period a couple of days later. I genuinely believe that I was pregnant (my breasts were very tender and swollen and I just generally felt different) but it didn't "stick".

The very next month I got pregnant with DS and this time with no symptoms at all, I took the leftover test from the month before after my period was 4 days late, just to rule pregnancy out. I was busy getting ready for work at the same time and I nearly fell over when I strolled back into the bathroom to see a very definite, dark BFP.

Thanks ladies! I am now about 3 or 4 days late for my period and have definitely been feeling pregnant, so I think I probably am, I am very regular. Hopefully it will be a sticky one and not an early loss.
