Question

IS a faint BFP a bad sign?

I took a digital test Friday, results were NOT PREGNANT... Then tested with EPT and got a positive three days in a row, Very FAINT... then retested with digital Today and got a Pregnant 1-2 weeks... Had my annual check up today at doctor and she did a test and got a faint POSITIVE.. Should I be worried about the faint positive?

I know I ovulated late (May 5th) because I tested 3x/day leading up to ovulation ... could this just be very early in the pregnancy?

Thank you!

Yes, you get a faint positive as you have only a small amount of hCG to detect - totally normal for the early days. If you keep testing the line will get darker. Congratulations!!

I would say that the fact that your digital went from not pregnant to pregnant 1-2 weeks shows progression. As far as the doctor's faint positive, their tests may just be a little less sensitive. Congratulations!!

Digital tests are terrible. Your DOCTOR seemed ok... I'd go with the med school advice. Congrats, freak out about the sex now.. :)
