Help

Hi, I'm 27 have a son of 16 months, we had a difficult time conceiving him, we got help from the doctor and now he's here, we have been trying 6 months to conceive again we went to doctor last month and got  help, I took the tablets etc, my period is one week late which is normal as I have always been irregular but my doctor told me to take a pregnancy test one week before my period was due cos if it was negative then I could continue the medication, I done it got a negative result, one week later, the week my period was due, I done another, it was negative too, then a few days later I done another and it had a line in the control window and a line in the test window but it was really feint and pale, this morning I done another test and it was the same, it's wasn't just as feint and we could see it easier than before but because they were both so feint I have doubts, I have no symptoms of pregnancy, just more tired but that the joys of a 16 month old, please help I'm just unsure, I don't want to waste my doctors time.

yes a faint line just means you probably aren't that far along and you levels are still low, but it still means you are pregnant. Congratulations, make an appt. for a blood test to confirm so you don't have any doubts.

With both my pregnancies the first tests I took the lines were so faint you couldnt really see them, with this pregnancy I almost threw the test out thinking it was neg until I noticed a faint line as I was tossing it in the trash..

yep i agree with above... a line only appears if its picking up something (if it shows up with in the reccomended time) and because you have 2 that have done this id talk to the Dr for sure....

If there's a line no matter how faint you are pregnant.
