ACCCKKK!! It's day 30 of my usually 27 day cycle. My dh and I bd'd on day 12 and I o'd on day 14. I've been taking HPT's for days and all were BFN. Someone call the HPT police on me! LOL. Anyway - today was a LITTLE different. I'm not sure what to think. Here is today's HPT saga....

- This morning, went to Target and bought a 3 pack of EPT (the + or - kind). Hadn't peed for an hour and a half and peed on one. Saw what again looked like a dent where the pee should go to make a positive and decided it was neg. Tossed it in my purse after 10 minutes.

- Went to coffee with a friend (had a small decaf). Sat for two hours, she had extra tests, gave me a First Reponse. I thought I saw a shadow, she said she saw nothing. We tossed it in under 5 minutes. When I left her house, I dug the test form the morning out of my purse and it looked positive, but this was hours later so I know I can't really go with that and it was an evap line.

- Came home. Still obsessed. LOL. Did not drink, waited two hours. Took the second of the EPT tests and within the 2 minutes there is DEFINATELY a very faint line there that made a plus sign. I don't have to squint or hold it up to the light, but it is very, very, very light. Still, doesn't that count?

On one hand I want to say, "YES I AM!" but on the other hand, wouldn't it be obvious and on all the tests at this point? And don't the EPT have a history of false positives? My hopes are already up, but I'm not sure. I have one more test that I am saving until the morning. At cd 30, shouldn't the positive be dark if I really am pregnant?

Hey,
Not necessarily a dark line will appear. How have you been feeling?? I found out that I was preggers on Father's Day after being 3 days late. By then I was feeling a bit queasy and definately very tired. I found it hard to get through a work day. If you saw a very faint positive I would have hope. Mine came up fairly dark after being 3 days late with Kroger brand, but women have different levels of HCG at different times. Test again in two days. Good luck to you!

Ususally no false positives. Line does not have to be dark to be +.

3 years ago when I got pregnant for the 1st time, I took four tests! All four were first response and so I was looking for two pink lines. The 2nd line was so faint i thought it must be wrong. I was told that any color means it's positive. So it sounds to me like you're definitely a mommy! Congratulations!
