Okay so Here it goes,
I was due to get my period Oct. 02, We thought we might be prego prior and took a test on Sept. 29 it came back negative, so when Oct. 02 came and went i thought maybe we tested too soon, so tested again Sept 03, came back a faint positive, I was in disbelief for a while and finally decided to test again Oct. 05, another faint positive.
Now the silly thing is im still in disbelief, i mean they were faint but they did show up within the first few minutes. I don't have too many symptoms, im tired and breast are tender when i touch them, and i have cramping, but thats it.
I have scheduled a doctors appt for next week, could someone please give me some opinions, i mean im just still in disbelief, and a few pointers would be nice ive already started exercising, cut out caffiene and smoking and revamped my diet but is that enough?
Please I need some input!
Thanks,,

Hi,
Read my texting... POSITIVE IS POSITIVE!!! Congratulations mommy to be :) The pregnancy test is measuring the amount of HCG in your system, faint line just means you don't have a lot, but that doesn't mean anything, every woman is different. If it detects HCG it means your pregnant. Have a happy and healthy pregnancy!

hang in there. i had gone off bc pills in feb or march 05 and never had a period...in may i thought i should have started having periods again so i began taking pregnancy tests at home and they were all negative...i took 4-5 of them over 2.5 weeks...i had some symptoms so my gyn ordered a blood test that also came back negative. a couple weeks later i had been vomiting and not feeling well for a while so i went to the er and they drew more labs and found out i was in fact pregnant...an ultrasound done that day said i was nearly 8 weeks pregnant--i was pregnant the whole time during all those tests, including the first blood test. so the at home tests aren't the most reliable things and early on i guess even blood tests can be wrong...anyway keep thinking positive and try to keep yourself busy until your doctor appointment so you don't make yourself crazy. best of luck to you.
