I think I'm paranoid...it's just I want a baby so much!?

My husband and I have been ttc for about 6 months. My period was supposed to start either Sunday or Monday. I've taken two different brands of pregnancy tests, and they both are positive - just a little faint. What I'm wondering is, what are the chances that this is just a chemical pregnancy and I'm not actually pregnant? I've been exhausted for about a week, mild cramps off and on, breasts are fuller, no period yet and the hpt's are positive, but I'm so paranoid that it might just be a chemical pregnancy - what do you guys think?

    Call ur doc and make an appt. Unfortunately though, my doc won't see me till I'm 8 weeks (which is this week), and seems to be the norm with most doctors unless you are having problems. I wasn't sure about the faint lines so I bought the digital tests. Both in the pack said Pregnant. So if your unsure about trusting the light lines, try the digital tests. They are easy to use and have results in 3 minutes or less. The longer you wait the more hormones build up in your system and the darker the lines get. Not all tests however, will give you dark lines. From what I have read online, it depends on the hormone levels and the amount of dye in the test. Check out the website I listed below. She's got examples of tests on her page.

    With the other symptoms you are having, sounds like you are pregnant. Only your doctor can tell you for sure if it's a chemical pregnancy. Don't stress too much cause that's not good either.

    If its positive then you are pregnant, no matter how faint. But dont worry about chemical pregnancy. Just stay positive. Honestly, I was told it mine was a chemical pregnancy and I hate that term. It negates the whole thing. As far as Im concerned, the egg is fertilized, its growing and dividing and producing enough hormone to be recognized clinically as a pregnancy.... but it doesnt take. Then the doctor's pass it off as something less than, and chemical. I dont like that.

    BUT the next time I got pregnant, I was just as paranoid as you. Its terrifying but you have to stay positive and believe in this baby. Picture it growing and burrowing into your lining and making a happy home. Stay positive!!!

    You're going to be a mommy!!!!

    You ARE pregnant, honey, you just had 2 pregnancy tests that were both positive, regardless of the brand. The ttw is over, sooo happy for you, kinda sad too, I lost a baby about 2 months ago, and it makes me so sad, I was pregnant, hadn't seen my baby yet, but, regardless, it had a heart, beating, That baby is lost, but, now you will have a chance to have a beautiful life of your own. Remember 2 positives were not wrong! 2 paranoid, don't be paranoid, sweety, get ready to see your new beautiful little life.....All my love and luck to you and baby!....Isabella

    Sweetie I know the feeling, I'm in the same boat! It's too early for me to test, though, so I'm sitting around with crossed fingers.

    A faint positive is still a positive, and you've got some of the other symptoms too, so I suggest you go ahead and go see your doctor!

    Congratulations!!

    when i took my hpt it was a little faint also, i asked the woman that sold it to me about it being faint, and she said anything that is positive is positive, even if it is faint. first responce is the best test to use. but i think its time to go get a test from the doctors, good luck!

    a faint positive is still a positive. Make an appointment to see your doctor. They will be able to check on your hormone levels and if your far enough along you will be able to hear the heartbeat, which will put your mind to ease! Good LUck and Congrats.

    you are pregnant, you just tested early and there is a low amount of hormone. if you test again in a week it won't be faint. congratulations!

    If more than one test is positive, chances are that you are! Go to a clinic if you want a quick professional test and see.
