Testing 6 days before missed period.....possible BFP?

Alright, my husband and I have been TTC for 3 months after we had a miscarriage, and me being so impatient, I wanted to use the FRER 6 days before missed period. I took it this morning with my FMU, and I gave it 3 minutes to cook, and when I went back to look at it, it looked negative, until I realized that there was the start of a very faint pink line at the bottom on the result window. So I decided to look at it, by holding it up to the light a little so I didn't strain my eyes, and there was the faintest of faint lines. Now I am not sure if this can be counted as positive or not because I needed to hold it up to the light to see the line. But of all the times that I've tested with FRER before (that's been a LOT of times!) I have never been able to hold it up to light and see something other than a white cloudy area where that line would have been. What would ladies make of this? And has anyone ever used the FRER and seen a line when holding it up to the light, and were pregnant? Ugh, I am driving myself nuts. Anyways, I plan on testing either Saturday or Sunday. Hopefully I can hold out with 2 more FRER dangling over my head!! Thanks guys for any advice!

    It could be positive. With all three of my pregnancies I have test positive between 5-7 days pre period. I would wait and test again but keep in mind that just because it was a faint positive today does not mean that you will see a line again. One of the drawbacks to testing so early is you can have a chemical pregnancy and your next test could be 100% negative or you can start your period. I wish you great luck!

    That happend to me!! Everyday it got a LITTLE bit darker! and yes it was a positive. That's the thing about the early detection ones..the positives are VERY faint that early. My husband didn't belive it was positive. But it defiantly was. I even got a negative on a digital early detection one and VERY faint positives on the regular kind and I was indeed pregnant. I asked the Dr about it and she said it's because the digital needs more of the HCG level (pregnancy hormone) in the urine to read "pregnant". Take another tomorrow or later today..if it's still there but faint then it is a big positive! google images on faint home pregnancy tests and compare it to others..thats what I did and it made me deifiantly believe it! Congrats =)

    Source(s): Happend to me..my first test was so faint that the positive didnt even show up on a picture on my cell phone!
