I know this has been asked many times, but could I still be pregnant if the line
on the pregnancy test is really faint? I compared it to a previous test and there's definitely a line but VERY faint. AF is 1 day late and my breasts
are horribly sore...worse than ever. I've also been very tired this week, needing
naps only 2 hours after I wake up in the morning. Also, my BBT has remained
high. I'm very suspicious and crossing my fingers! I've been on Clomid for 3 months, so I'm definitely hoping it worked this time. Thanks for any advice!!!!!!!!
This will be my first if I am pregnant!!!

Hi, Congratulations!!!
As long as there's a blue line there YOU ARE PREGNANT! The pregnancy hormone was detected by the pregnancy test which means you are pregnant...
The same happened to me, I took my pregnancy test 1 day after being late and guess what I am now 5 months pregnant, Even when I went to the OBGYN for pregnancy confirmation (3 days late of my period) The nurse said that the urine result that they did at the doctor's office was positive even with a faint line showing, the reson is because your body is JUST starting to produce those hormones..

Congratulations Once again, and have a safe pregnancy!

It's faint red, not blue, but I'll check again in 2 days just in case.
I really hope I am pregnant! We've been trying for 12 months!!

Ok, I had a severe migraine today and I threw up several times. I guess that faint line is a definite yes!

Ha! I think it depends on whick brand you use as to the color of the lines. I found out really early all three times and the line was always faint. Only once did I ever get a light line and was not pg. It appeared after about six minutes. The test said to read after 2 or 3 and as early as 1 minute for positve result. I can relate to the faint line thing. I am sure that you have done a ton of tests in the past and you know that when they are negative there is usually nothing. (Not even when you take the test apart and hold the strip to the light! HA! HA!

)
Good luck!!
