Hi. I haven't really kept close track of temps, O date, etc. because DH and I had a falling out a few months ago about TTC #2 and we started our own business, so the foucs has been on that. I was told that the only way I could conceive was with Clomid... However, I did sporadically take my temp, so I think that I o-ed between July 23 and 25th.

Anyways, I noticed that I hadn't gotten AF yet, and I really didn't have any signs of her. I let another few days go by and today decided that I would take an HPT (at work and not with FMU, against my better judgement). I used Answer, which I know measures 100mu and up of hcg.

Well.... I got a faint line. It's definately there, but very light. I don't have to squint or talk myself into seeing it, but still, it's pretty light. There is definately something there, though. Do you think I can consider this a BFP, even if it's so faint?

Please help. I'm going crazy here at work. (MY DH and I did sort of work things out - it wasn't that he doesn't want another child, it was just so sressful when TTCing #1 that he didn't know if he wanted to see me go through that again)

Thank you

Amy

From all that I have a heard a line is a line regardless of faintness.

Congrats!!

I've read that Answer Early detects 25, not 100. I wish I had the link but I just read it this a.m. on one of the boards... I had a very faint BFP yesterday as well and I am going to wait a couple days to retest...if I can! Good luck and keep us posted!!!

I used the regular Answer test, not Answer Early... (I made a mistake when I bought it...) I already called my doctor, so I'll be having a blood test tomorrow AM.

CONGRATS TO YOU!

thanks for answering!
