Okay ladies, here goes! My THIRD child will be 11 months on Sunday, I'm still nursing and have not had a period. So, I started feeling weird lately and having really weird discharge (sadly, the kind I only have while preggers or during ovulation) I had a preg test laying around so just to make sure, I peed on it. Lo and behold, a line pops up at the appointed time, faint, very faint and then it disappeared. Shew!!! So I go tell the hubbs about it all and we have a little chuckle. About an hour later, I go back to use the potty and I notice the line is back (still faint). So, do we think that this is just an evaporation line, or something a little more, umm, shall we go with, SCARY!!! ;-) And yes, I will definitely be purchasing more tests within 24 hours!!!

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

I took a digital and it was NOT PREGNANT!!! Shew!!! Lesson, if I ever need a pregnancy test in the future, I will never use an Equate brand again.

There are false negatives with these tests, but not false positives.

Congratulations! (I hope this is a happy moment)

Was the test expired? There are false positives, I have experienced it myself. It could be worse, my dear friend gave birth yesterday to her 3rd, her 2nd turned one just 3 weeks ago. Now that is a big whoops!

You will know for sure in a few hours I imagine but it does sound to me like you are pregnant. And if you are remember it's all in the plan! I hope you can find out soon to put your mind to rest.

Sounds like you are! I would buy the Clearblue Easy digital pregnancy test because there is no chance of misreading that one. I've only used Clearblue Easy and all four times it was accurate!

Congratulations on your special gift from above!

Well, to me, sounds *likely* that you are.

Remember, we can get pregnant even though we don't have our periods. As long as we ovulate (we don't have to have our periods after ovulating for it to have happened) and are having unprotected sex, we can get pregnant. Also, breastfeeding, even exclusively, is not a 100 percent effective birth control.

Good luck!

Hi J.!
You can't trust what the test says after about 10 minutes (read what it says on the box for the exact amount of time). If the line was there saying you were pregnant, but it was faint, you probably are. From my own experience ... I had an extremely faint line on a pregnancy test, but yes, I was pregnant. The line was faint because it was very early on in the pregnancy and whatever the chemical is in your body that the test checks for was just low because it was early on. Anyway, yes, take another test!! Good luck!

When I was pregnant with my first there was a dark line and a little faint line. I was confused, so I called the number on the box and was told, even if it's a faint line that means you're pregnant. Sure enough I was!

I am now pregnant with my third and my second is 11 months old, so I know how you feel. I really think it will be a lot of fun with two little ones making pitter patters on the floor! :-) Good luck to you!!!
