Positive...or Negitive??

HEY all!!
Okay okay, i have a tough, but really important question to ask!!
I tested this morning...with my first pee for the day and everything. The 20mlU from LC is the test i used...Did everything right, about 2 mins after putting it flat, i noticed a extremely faint line, thinking it was just my eyes i didnt mention anything, BUT DP also saw it!! it was a purply colour like the line, but like i said, really faint, i mean, really really really faint, but you could see it from an arms lenth away. So DP and i are like Hmm...is that a faint positive or what??
So we threw it away and just thought we will just test again tomorrow or monday...
There shouldnt have been any line, faint or not, if there is no HCG in my pee...right?? Being faint it could mean i do have HCG in my pee, but just not enough to come up dark enough?? There is no mistake the line was there, you could see it in any light, from an arms lenth away...
Im taking it as a negative, for now, but i want to know what you girls think...
Im 12DPO today...i was going to test tomorrow coz DP and i calculated the best time to test would be 12DPO at least because of the HCG levels rising etc and we just wanted to give it that extra day to let the levels rise nice and high :)

Hi Meg,

It doesn't matter how faint the line is.... if it's there it is pretty much guarenteed a positive!!

Good luck with your next test... I will be waiting to see!! *hugs*

A line is a line, congrats are in order I do believe, but test again tomorrow and see if it is darker but I think you are defineately pg.

hugs xoxo

Yep i agree! A line is a line. Congratz!

Thanks girls for the answers so far :) im just soo unsure because of how faint it was.but i guess the fact i could still see it, and DP could see it, and from an arms lenth away...but any lighter and it would have probably been invisible.

i think its a positive tannedangel :D good luck

A line is a line Meg - looks like you might be our next BFP!

Good luck tomorrow, don't forget to tell us how it went!!

At 12DPO I'd expect it to be quite faint like that, so maybe as you say try again on Monday & you'll have a darker line ;)

Congratulations :D

Hi, fingers crossed it's a BFP!!! My first home test was faint but showed positive, then went to the doc and he did a urine test which was inconclusive, then another straight after which said it was negative, he sent me for blood tests the next day and the results came back BFP!!! So congratulations!!!

I agree (and I know from first hand experience from the past week!
A line is a line.
I tested on like sunday last week when I was only 7 DPO (no real reason, just thought I would), and I got a line like you are describing.

Hubby and I tested again on Wednesday night and got a darker line, but it was still faint, but definitely a line that time.

We tested today (AF is due tomorrow), and our line is now the same colour as the control.

Our very very faint :bfp: is now a strong :bfp:

With AF due tomorrow, and our line nice and strong, I'm feeling good.

I think your line will continue get darker!
Welcome to the world of :bfp: Sounds like we are on almost the same cycle!

my EDD would be 21/04/2008, so like, a day after you :)

sounds promising :D Goodluck Meg!! fingers crossed

:crossfingers: Good luck Meg!

I would say that is a baby I have had three and I have never had anymore than a really really faint line but I now have three children at my knees so I would say congratulations meg and ben
