Pregnant?

Help! I took a First Response test this afternoon and it gave me a VERY VERY faint positive. I mean this is so faint you could easily miss it (but three other people see the same thing I do so I know I'm not seeing things). Well, a few hours later I took another one and got a negative. I then compared my + with the test I took with my last child (taken a year ago) and the two positive lines are not in the exact same place. The one I took today is over to the left a little more than the other one. I wanted to know what you ladies thought of it. Do you think First Response would have changed the location of a + line from last year? Or is there another explanation for this? It showed up w/in 3 minutes, so I don't see how it could be an evaporated line. And I could explain the - on the second test as my urine could have been more diluted...but what do you guys think, pg or not???

I would take another test using the first morning urine only and maybe another brand besides First Response. I know that EPT is supposed to be reputable...

I had the same exact thing happen to me. I took a First Response test yesterday afternoon and it had a faint line, so faint it was just visible enough to see. Well DH and I got a bit excited and thought maybe it was just too soon to detect since AF isn't due until Sunday. Well I decided to test again first thing this morning and that faint line is completley gone. I am not sure if yesterday was just a fluke or what. I hate that we got all excited for nothing. I guess I will just have to wait ans see if AF comes. When is your AF due?

Well, it happened to me too! Took another one this morning and it shows a bfn! I hate this. Now which one do I believe??? Why does the first one show a line? I've never heard of a false + before?!

I am bf'ing and have not yet seen af so there is no telling. I just know when I could have gotten preggo so I waited 2 weeks to test. Well, actually it isn't quite 2 weeks yet (I'm too impatient). I guess I'll wait another week and test again. I hate having to wait!!!

Good luck to you too. Let me know how it turns out for you!
