Some background on me:
My last period started on May 14th and ended on the 17th. According to my cellphone app iP, My fertility period was May 25th - May 30th, which is when we were trying. I was expecting my period yesterday, so I am now one day late. Something else to note - I just had a surgical procedure in early April to remove a Septate Uterus (which apparently took up 80% of what is now my uteran cavity).

What I have experienced so far:
On June 8th, I experienced some spotting which required a light-day pad. It started red, then went darker brown. I experienced cramps over the weekend and tenderness in my breasts, so I was convinced my period was going to come early, but nothing came. Then on the 11th, I noticed every now and then when I wiped, there was a slight pinkish discharge (only the first wipe).

Tuesday night (two days ago) I took a test (forgot the brand, but is was a name brand with the capability to detect 6 days early, and two lines). The second line was barely visible - you had to really look. So I decided to wait until the next morning to test again - the second line was again barely visible. I dismissed as a negative, but then yesterday I searched online and read about the debate between evaporation lines and otherwise confirming a pregnancy (of which both my lines were in exactly the same spot, and appeared within the time limit, so I'm positive they weren't evaporation lines). So here I am all ecstatic, and call my doctor, who tells me to use a digital test - and if that test comes out positive, then I should call them.

So this morning I bought the EPT pregnant/not pregnant digital test. I was so excited to try it, that I barely had enough pee (my second of the morning) to last the 5 seconds. It declared "not pregnant". :(

But I'm hoping that because the other lines were SO barely there that perhaps the test couldn't detect it? It did take almost three minutes to spit out an answer... However, the pinkish discharge when I wipe also has me concerned. Any opinions??

P.S. I forgot to tell you my age - I am about to turn 35 this September.
