Faint positive pregnancy test

Hello, for all of you who got a 'faint line' on a hpt, how faint was 'faint' and did it result in a positive test later on?

  • Quite faint and yes positive
  • I had a faint line, it was just noticeable, i wasnt pegnant, it took me 2 1/2 months and lots of home pregnancy tests after that to actually be pregnant
  • I had a test done at the drs and it was faint faint like barely there faint had a blood test and came back positive, a few weeks later i went for an ultrasound and turns out i was 11weeks and that was with pregnancy #3.. good luck :)
  • Yep very faint here... It was only 3.5 weeks. Surprisingly I never retested just believed it. Congrats on your pregnancy!
  • Most people mistake evaporation lines for a positive result, i had faint lines but they were all positive. If you have a faint line, retest in a week & it should be clearer as the hcg hormone would be stronger
  • With all three of mine I knew straight away, I did a test, each time, they were all extreamly faint and yes all turn out to be positive. With my third I went for a blood test because the result was so faint and the result came back negative, four weeks later when I still didnt get my monthly's I took another test and sure enough it was positive!
  • All three of mine has been very faint and positive... Each one I was around 5-7 weeks along... Good luck
  • A positive is a positive, no matter how faint, there is only false negatives :) congrats!!
  • I dont have heaps of experience as only had one pos preg test b4 and it was a definite clear line. But my most relevant question would be how early are you/would you be? If its still first couple of weeks and not due for period yet then may very well be faint in my understanding. As the hormone levels increase the reading should become more definite. Please feel free to correct me if Im wrong cos I would love to know for next time :-) But then the babv comments suggest definite positive YAY!
  • I had a faint line with my test but always buy a 2 pack. Thus test was done late afternoon and when I retested in the morning it was a darker more definite positive. I'd suggest testing with first wee or wait a few days to retest. Goodluck
  • Yes both kids faint and yes was pregnant
  • i had very very faint positive but i knew i was pregnant before testing, just had the feeling.. and i tested 3 days before my period was due.. now have an 8mo beautiful boy, congrats!!!
  • Faint of any sort means positive. Go get a blood test.
  • With the pregnancy test, i had faint lines for both 1st time round i was only 3wks pregnant & second time round i was 4wks so both have been really faint & resulted in pregnancy :) congrats if you are!
  • Mine was barely visible but tested a few days later and it was very obvious. Dd is now 4 months old! :)
  • Very faint...barely visible. Looked like a little shadow or something. But definitely pregnant! Almost 17 weeks now :) i did a test a week after the faint one and it came up positive right away and dark as anything, so its probably just really early.
  • I had a super faint line. Had to look at every angle with different sets of eyes. But yes I was pregnant.
  • I have had the same thing, looks like a shadow, and can see it easily in daylight at different angles. There's definitely something there but I'm thinking it could be a 'shadow' or 'evaporation' line. Of course, it was a positive for you but has anyone else had an evaporation line instead of a positive? I used a pregnosis strip in the pink box
  • Four pregnancies and 4 very faint lines. I think it's just because your hormone levels are still so low in early pregnancy, and that's what brings up the line. You'd probably want to confirm again in a day or two. (I did daily tests for days!)
  • Take another test in two days...your hormones should have increased so there's more of a line there (if it really is positive). I think evaporation lines are generally only a problem if you read the test after 10 minutes have passed. I figure that if there is some kind of mark in the 'positive' window, then it's positive...I've never had any trouble reading a negative test lol!
