Am I pregnant?

[Babyboo21]

So I’ve taken 3 different tests and got a faint second line on all 3 and they get darker each time I was supposed to have my period a few weeks ago but only had a little spotting due to getting over birth control and really wondering if I’m truly pregnant or not? My husband and I are hoping so but I dont know what to do. I also just took this one yesterday. It isn’t the best picture right now but looks much darker in person.

Hi there,

I noticed no-one had replied yet so didn't want to r&r. It can be such a stress wondering whether it is or isn't. Hope you're coping okay.

I'd say if you're certain of your ovulation dates and therefore when your period would have been due then a test like this a few weeks after a period means you're most likely not pregnant, sorry love. A faint line like this could be an evaporation line or it could be signs of a chemical pregnancy but your lines would gradually fade. I have a test I could show you that's positive 1 day after a missed period but didn't want to be insensitive posting it if that makes sense (took us 6 years, surgeries and rounds of IVF/ICSI to get the pregnancy but my first ever positive was very dark & obvious right away).

If in doubt of your ovulation dates, as excruciating as I know it is waiting, I'd wait a week and test again to be sure.

Take care. X
