Hi

This is what happened to me (I'm 21 weeks now), when are you supposed to come on your period?

I tested the day before I was due and had a faint line for approx 2 weeks (I think I did 7 tests in all, lol!) but if there wasn't a pregnancy detected, the hormone wouldn't show up I don't think....sounds like you might be to me!

Have you referred to the packet instructions or done a test at different time of the day? Maybe that might help?

Good luck either way x

Also happened to me, I'm now 20 weeks. If you are not convinced try again in a couple of days with your first morning urine so can see if the line is more visable.

A nurse told me that you can't get a false positive like you can get a false negative. Any line remotely 'positive' is definitely a positive!

Congratulations! X

Hi that is what happened with me I ended up doing 4 cheap pregnancy tests and one clear blue the first 2 had one very strong line and other was faint i still wasn't convinced i done the tests at different times of each day i then bought a clear blue as I know they never lie and i am now 15 weeks 4 days pregnant and due in may if you are still uncertain about the test i agree with everyone do a few more tests or for more reassurance make an appointment with your gp and show them the tests they can confirm it or do a test for you there and then and then they can set the ball rolling for you to see your midwife. hope this is of some help x

Same here, I tested two days before my period was due, I took it as a negative as I didn't read the instructions properly. Tested a few days later and had two strong lines, now 29 weeks! Congratulations xx
