am pregnant! This is completely out of the blue. I took three pregnancy tests this morning and each one had two lines. On all three, the line closet to the place that collects the urine came up instantly and was a lot darker than the other line. The line closest to the thumb grip was always a lot lighter . I can't find anywhere in the directions about which line is the test line and which is the reference line. I think I'm pregnant but would love some reassurance from you guys. We've been having a lot of trouble because of my short luteal phase and had sex only once last month because I had all but given up. The intercourse wasn't even really timed with ovulation at all. I've been having a lot of pain in my stomach the last few days and today have this aching that is mostly centered in my middle abdomen. Two nights ago I was in agony from what I thought was constipation. I had a lot severe cramps. They subsided the next day but the aching persisted. Today I attempted to go for a run but ended up walking the whole way because of the aching when I ran. I had no hope for being pregnant this month (was expecting my period today) but thought I'd take a test anyway. Is it positive? Do you feel that I should be worried about my abdominal aching? Thanks so much for all your continued support.

Jenn,

Thanks so much!! I hope you are right though there is still this nagging doubt and worry in my head. I used two different types of tests. Two of them were the Answer brand and the third was First Response. Thanks again and good luck to you! BTW, are your furrbabies dogs or cats?

Toto and Aerial are dogs, and Tabby is a kitty, but she is now living with my mom b/c my puppy, Aerial, was terrorizing her.
