I Need Some Help
Posted: 09-06-05 23:06pm

I have been trying to get pregnant for a year. I took a test three days ago and it was negative. I took a test today and 3 hours later it was positive. Faintly pink and with a white "evaporation" line under it. I took two more and the same thing. I really confused it I am pregnant or not. I pulled out the old one ( from three days ago)and it was still negative. I am not sure what is causing these lines and if I should be happy. I was wondering if anyone has been through the same thing. :?:

Evaporation Lines
Posted: 09-07-05 00:22am

Sometimes it is possible to mistake evaporation lines for a positive result, but if there is an evaporation line as well as a positive line, then it might be positive for real.

Usually they say only a result that occurs within 3 minutes is reliable, and results should only be read up to something like 10 minutes after testing.

But if it keeps coming up positive, then I think you are pregnant.
If you are still unsure, do one with first urine in the morning, or better yet, pop into the doctor for confirmation.

Good luck !!!!
