Q: Positive?

Is there a such thing as a false positive? Or if that second line shows up, no matter, how faint pink it is, are you really pregnant?
I am so excited. I took two hpt ( 4 day before period due, and today, 3 days early) both came up with a very light light pink line for the positive reading. We are in our second month of trying, my boobs hurt like hell and I have been ( not to be gross) burping all the time for 2 days. Tired too. I couldnt wait anymore, so I took the test. That second line showed up right away even though it was very light. Am I pregnant?!

When I tested 3 days before my period a faint line came up and what do you know I am now 8 weeks pregnant. It may just be faint due to your hcg levels not being so high yet. Good luck :)

Wait a couple more days and then test again, but it does sound like you're pregnant. It was probably just faint because you tested 3 days before your period and there wasn't enough hormone. Good luck.
