I couldn't help it! I bought a PTK and I used it three days before AF should arrive! I know it's too soon but the package says it works about 50% of the time! So I couldn't wait.... and this is my questions. I got a very subtle line... extremely fainted... Is that a yes or a no?? Can you get a very fainted line if you are not pregnant or as soon as you get a little bit of color it is considered positive... It is extremely subtle... hard to see... but obviously is too soon. I'm insane, I know that but I'm the most impatient person in the universe!!!

I don't think that sounds so crazy - I've read of women posting here that got positives 7 or 8 dpo so it sounds like you may be well within the range of being able to receive a positive - besides, all women are different and maybe you are already cranking out the hcg! Test again if you've got another stick with your fmu and if that one is positive too then I'd feel free to celebrate & make a dr's appt!!! GOOD LUCK & keep us posted!!

I am in the sam eboat. I would take the faint line as a positive. I am 11DPO, and got an immediate faint line. I will test again on Sunday. Your HCG levels double every two days. I think as long as you read the results within the recommended time fram (within 5 minutes) a sline, is a line. It's posible to get an evaporation line (not pink) if you read the results much later and hold it up to the light.

Hey, I think we are pregnant. If my line gets darker I am due June 24. My 2nd trimester begins on Christmas and my third, on April Fools Day.

Keep us posted!

I can't help being excited either. AF is 3 days away, so took a FRPT and got the faint line. It's my first time TTC, so this is all new to me. I am wondering the same thing...should I celebrate? I showed the test to my DH just to make sure he saw the line too and I wasn't imagining it. I plan to restest. Best wishes to you!
