A Cautious Hello

Hello September Mommies!

I'm hopeful that I'll be joining you ladies, but I'm a bit nervous over celebrating too early. I've taken three HPTs, and they're really REALLY faint positives. I know the old saying is "a line is a line," so I'm tentatively believing that we're indeed preggo, but both hubby and I need a bit more evidence (darker lines) before really truly believing it.

I'm planning to POAS tomorrow morning. Anyways, hello to everyone, and hope to be talking to you a lot more in the coming months!

Btw, did any of you ladies have really faint positives too? I think I'm about 13 DPO.

Congratulations & welcome! I got my really faint positive at 11 dpo... Today, Tuesday, I'm 14dpo- so it will be the day AF was scheduled to show up. Hoping with everything I have that I will get through today without bleeding. I'll feel safer somehow after this day goes by. I know how you feel.

You must be due right at the end of September, like me!

eta: I have also taken 3 and the line definitely got darker. And I'll do it again next week. I don't care if it means nothing, it makes me happy! :

Hi Lula's Mom!
Yes, I think if this really is my BFP, then I'd be due around September 17th. My period is due tomorrow, so if it doesn't show up and the morning HPT is positive, I think I'll call my doctor to make an appointment. Obviously, a part of my thinks it really is the BFP we've been waiting for; hubby and I are on our laptops googling baby stuff!

I was like a kid at Christmas and woke up at 5:30 AM to POAS. I used one of those blue +/- kinds, and it was a distinct blue +! Plus three Internet Cheapies, all three of which had faint lines. So, I'm thinking we're pregnant? I'm so excited and happy! :

Welcome! My lines never got darker this time. They were all there, but that was about it. The only things that made me feel better about that were 1) a Clear Blue test (50 iu sensitivity) came up negative a week ago, but came up positive on Saturday, and 2) no period. :-) My husband didn't get excited until yesterday, six days after our first positive.

My neighbor said her tests never got darker either when she got pregnant with her daughter. But they won't show up at all if there's no pregnancy hormone to detect, so you're good.

Congrats! Welcome! You're just a few days behind me, then. I'm 9/19 and 17 dpo now.

Wendy

Thanks for the welcome Wendy! I was expecting the lines to be darker today on my IC's, so your words are comforting! My husband had a similar reaction btw.
