Faint lines on pregnancy tests always a positive?
Hi. I always thought the "science" of getting pregnant was quite straight forward, but the more I read the more I see it isn't lol.
OK I'm in the planning to fall pregnant stage. my situation is slightly different to most in that currently I live an ocean apart from my partner. Our planning to get pregnant time will hopefully end in us taking a test together. I always assumed a positive ment a clear bold test line but just been looking through the test gallery (I'm a tad addicted to it now) and see faint lines are classed as pregnant too. Up to this point had I got a faint line (like in the opk) I'd have assumed it wasn't a positive. So if we're lucky enough to get a faint line would I be right in saying we were?
Sorry for long post

Yes even the fainted pink (or blue) line means pregnant. Sometimes tests get an evaporation line which is a faint line you can see but it lacks colour or is kind of gray. I suggest you look through the EVAP gallery to see some examples. Some brands of tests are more prone to these evap lines.
