Faint Posotive

Hey Moms,
I took a pregnancy test early this morning and it had a very faint posotive line. Definitely visible but faint.
The negative line actually came up very clear first and the posotive about a miunte to two later.
The last time this happened to me, I miscarried.
I was wondering if any of you have had succesful pregnancies when you have faint posotives.
I used one of the First Response tests and another thing is I just don't "feel" pregnant!
Thanks in advance for any info.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?™

Thank you to everyone that has responded and giving me so much hope about my pregnancy. I went to my OB on Wednesday and they tested my HCG and did an EPT at their office. The nurse thought it was negative at first because of how long the posotive took to show up but it did about 2 minutes later and again was very faint.
I should get my HCG levels back today and will be back on Friday to test them again and see if they have doubled.
I will keep you all updated and thanks again for all of your support and advice!

My second pregnancy was a very faint line, so I didn't know what to make of it first (also unplanned at the time). But, everything worked out perfectly. I have a healthy, happy, energetic little 3 year old now! Good luck!

Yes it's possible, I got pregnant 2 1/2 months after having my first. And all that was there the first time was a very very light positive. I waited another week and took the test again, this time it was not faint at all. I decided the best thing to do was go have an ultra sound to see how fare along I was. And now I have two beautiful little girls. I hope things go well for you :)!

Congrats! I had two faint positives. They both came out healthy and strong. You'll be fine. =) Just take it easy and don't worry.

Take care and God Bless.

Both of mine were so faint, I could barely see the line. I actually called the company to find out for sure.

You can have a false negative, but not a false positive. The pregnancy hormones are stronger at some times during early pregnancy, so if you take it again in another week, early in the morning, you may get a more definate line. Good luck!

Hi N.! I am 29 weeks pregnant with a VERY faint positive...and it is TWINS. So pretty much a positive is positive. It is tricky in the beginning to figure out the best time to take the test, so many variables. I would go see your doctor and get your levels checked out! Good luck!!
