Help!! Does this mean??

Question

Hello to everyone, okay I am 11 days late on my period, I had taken a hpt last week and it was negative.... but since my bbs were still hurting/sore, and feeling tired. I went ahead and took a 1st response hpt this morning. But there was only a shadow on the hpt test there was 1 full line and next to it a shadow. I showed it to my sister without telling her nothing and she said " I see a shadow ". I am not sure to take it as a positive yes am preggo or wait another week and test again. What should I do? Any comments, suggestions, info, advice is welcome. Thank you very much for reading my question I really appreciate it, for your help.

Answer 1

go get one of the digital ones that would be so much easier than trying to figure out if the line is really a line ...good luck!

Answer 2

Same thing happened to me there was just a shadow on one line and my sister was there and she told me she thought it was positive and it was and now I have a 2 year old daughter. I say you take the next step and make your first prenatal visit, which will give you another pregnancy test and confirm if you are or aren't.

Answer 3

if you are 11 days late go get a blood test....and usually any line, no mattter how faint is considered a positive.  If you would rather wait on the blood test just give it another 2 days bc if you are PG then the hcg levels double and you should have a darker line.

Answer 4

go see a doctor and get a blood test

Answer 5

I agree with the previous poster.  I would get a digital one.  It is so much easier to read.  I only used the digital ones because I would see a line and then my husband wouldn't and I would get upset.  With the digital, there is no mistaken.

Answer 6

If you see a faint positive line then that means congrats!

There are false negatives but rarely false positives!!

But like I said, any faint positive line is a positive line!

As long as you can see something there!

But I would retest in a few more days when the urine could be stronger. Then you might get a more positive answer.

Good Luck and God Bless!!

Answer 7

I don't know your usual cycle but for me I was never late. I would buy another test within the next few days (if you don't get your period) then retest..or just call your doctor and tell them u want a blood test and then u will know for sure. It sounds like you could be preggo. Good luck hope you get the answer you want!!
