Okay, I took a HPT this morning and at first I thought it read completely negative but as I looked(still within 3min time frame ) I noticed very faint half of a positive line above the negative and I mean very faint. What do you guys think of this? Have any of you had this happen before? I would appreciate all of your comments!

I would like to add that I do not think it is an evaporation line because this HALF line showed up within a couple of minutes; it looks like a faint perpendicular line not a plus sign!

I would go buy a digial to be sure... its hard to know without seeing the test... and I'm sure it won't read correctly now. Good luck.

You might not have enough HCG in your body yet for the test to fully pick up on it. I have had something like this happen to me, and it turned out I was actually pregnant. Make sure you use your morning urine, the first time you go to the bathroom after you wake up. If you are pregnant, your HCG levels will be higher in your urine at that time. :)

False positives are pretty rare though. Rank, when did you miscarry again?

It sounds like it could be positive mine took about 10 min and the line was very very faint in fact I couldn't see it I was leaving my doctors office when she told me to come back.

Consistency is something to look for in your tests. I would buy some cheep tests (the dollar store has tests that do work). If the tests have the same result you know it is not a fluke. I think you have a good shot of being pregnant. If you are---Congratulations :)
