I did my first test 3 days ago and the line was fairly faint, did a digi next day and got positive but i did a test today and the line is still faint.

should i be worried?

hiya hun, how far on are u ? uknow if ur af date as been n gone u really shudnt test, i know but we do ! i was getting faint lines on IC for a wk after af was due uknow, try not to test or temp ! x

Hey and congratulations!

What kind of tests are you using? I was testing every other day with ICs and it took about a week I think for them to become significantly darker so I wouldn't worry - try again in a few more days

no, i dont think so. i always had pregnancy tests in my drawer just in case. and i did one just before going out (so i knew whether to drink or not) my cycle has always been VERY irregular, so it was a constant mystery whether i was pregnant or not every couple of weeks!! i did the test, and left it for ages ontop of the drawers. with only one line showing i picked it up ready to throw it in the bin, and within a matter of seconds...from walking to the drawrs to the bin, another line appeared!!! i was very shocked as all the other ones i had done had come up negative.
so i asked my fiance to get me a digital one (they are way beter!!) and it came back pregnant. needless to say i did the other test as you got two in the box and again two very faint lines appeared. so i dont think it actually matters whether the lines are faint or strong, it probably varies from test to test. all it needs to tell u is that ur pregnant......so congrats!!!! n try not to worry. im sure just because its faint doesnt mean theres anything wrong. enjoy it.....its your own little bun in the oven!!! xxxxx

ive used a tesco own brand, clearblue digi with weeks and the blue dip ones. I think im just a worrier still having no symptoms really (apart from being really tired and cranky lol)

thank your for your replies have made me feel much better

I am sure all is fine so no need to worry

it was the tescos own that i used, and then i used the the clearblue with weeks.
if u had done just a digi...u wouldnt have known how faint or not lines were!! im sure everything will be fine, and dont worry....ur symptoms will kick in soon!!

Sounds fine to me, the cheapy tests can be a bit hit & miss

....but if you're really worried your doc can have bloods taken to measure the hormone increase over a couple of days

Ps. Congrats!!
