This is my first post & most likely one of very many to come. I visit the forums on here quite often. And I must say, a lot of the girls on here seem really nice. Some awesome people who I hope to become friends with over time.

i took my second pregnancy test tonight & it came back with two lines. [indicating a positive result]. However, the second line was very faint. Almost invisible in the dark, but it's definitely there when placed under light.

The first test I took was taken 4 days before my period's due date & it came back negative. The one I took tonight was the first day of my missed period [meaning my period should have arrived today & it did not]. And, this is the test with the faint positive.

My boyfriend & I are both 21-yr's of age. My name is amber & his name is brandon [bran for short].

This is my second pregnancy. Unfortunately, I aborted my first one when I was 18-yr's old. Please don't judge me. It was an extremely hard decision. [bran was not around at that time].

We were both here tonight when I took the test & he took it very well. He seems excited, but nervous. I'm in shock more than anything else. And worried that i'm getting my hopes up too high. I want this baby, but i'm nervous, too.

A faint positive is still a positive, right? And - is it still a bit too early for me to be releasing enough hcg to show a darker line?
