Fain positive. please hep

Fain positive. please hep

Hi ladies,
Hope everybody is fine. I finally couldn't wait any longer to use a pregnancy test, and it came out positive. I am very concerned though. The line on the Early Result first response test was very very faint. eventhough my period is not due untill sunday, but this concerns me because last time that i got a faint line I miscarried. I dont know what to think. I dont wanna get hopeful and then miscarry again.Why is the line soooo faint? is it because my hormone levels are low?
Please help.

A line is a line is a line (positive) UNLESS it is an evaporation line because you waited too long (over 5? minutes) to read the test (these are usually colorless and just mean the test is drying out).  Should be a colored line, even pale. Don't think the shade relates to m/c possibilities. Lots of pics at peeonastick.com

I wouldn't worry about it being faint.  If it will make you feel better wait a couple of days and take another or use the digital ones.  But if there is a line, even a faint one, you are pregnant!

well if your period is due sunday, that would mean you tested 3 days early. some pregnant women that test 3 days early do not even get a positive. in fact some pregnant women do not even see a faint line until after AF is due. a line is a line, and a faint line doesnt make you any less pregnant. It probably just means that you do not have alot of HCG in your system, but enough for the test to pick it up. Also keep in mind that different tests have different levels of sensitivity, and depending on when implantation occurred, all you may be able to expect is a very faint line. IOW, you have nothing to be concerned about... Congrats and God Bless!

You tested early. Some don't get a bfp until they're late. I was 9 dpo when I got my faint positive, but it got darker as the days went on. I would test again in a few days, or even call your doctor and have a quantitative hcg blood test done to give you a number. They can do it again in 48 hours to make sure it's at least doubling. CONGRATS!!

Thanks for your replies ladies.
I agree that I tested early, but the thing is that I have absolutely 0 symptom. No tender breast, or cramps or anything that indicates I might be pregnant. I should have had at least menstrual like cramps by now, what do you think? anybody with the same exparience?
