hello ladies...i've posted a couple of times with symptoms and etc. Well i even waited an extra week to test, because im a little nervous...theres STILL no sign of AF. Well the other night, (sunday), i bought 2 hpt. I took one at night, and i got something that appeared to be a really faint line. Then i tested in the morning...and i got nothing, its clearly a neg result. But when you hold the 2 of them together, you can still see that faint line...i dont know what to think...im a little freaked...so some input guys would be excellent :)

What brand of test did you use? I would test either tomorrow morning or Thursday morning.

Good Luck!!!

Same thing happened to me with the Walgreens HPTs-got that faint line and the next day got a negative. I'm not pregnant. I've read that the Walgreen's tests only detect HCG levels of 100 and higher.

You need to go out and buy a FIRSTRESPONSE EARLY or a ANSWEREARLY ! Those tests do detect 100 and its possible you didnt have that much hcg built up yet. Retest with a sensitive brand that detects 25 ans let us know how it goes !Goodluck !
