Faint BFP on Dollar Tree Brand??
posted 19th Feb
So here's my dilemma: I am currently 8DPO, and I have been feeling all sorts of weird "I'm pregnant" symptoms, so I took a dollar tree HPT yesterday (I know, I know, super early - I figured it would be BFN but I obsess.) And I got this REALLY faint line (I honestly thought I was imagining it). It showed up within 10 minutes, but it was SO light, I wasn't sure if it was an evap line? I actually found out I was pregnant with my daughter with a dollar store test, but seeing as that was over 3 years ago...I can't remember much about the tests...Has anyone had any faint positives on these tests? ALSO does anyone have any super early pregnant symptoms? I feel like I'm in my head WAY too much, just need other ladies input! Thanks!

I think you have up to 10 minutes with that test... so i'd say you are probably pregnant.

can you post a pic?
I didn't use that type of test with DS but I did have a crazy faint line at first (to the point that I dismissed it as negative) I didn't have really any early pregnancy symptoms but my breasts got really heavy (but that usually happens before my period)

Dollar store tests have a 25 Miu sensitivity, so you should go get a FRER since they have 12.5 miu sensitivity. Test tomorrow with FMU and if it was indeed a faint line you should get a nice BFP on a FRER.
Dollar store ones are very reliable from what I have heard, I got them my the arm full when TTC.

Tested with $ hpt
Super faint line (it's just an evap though, I know it).
I hope yours is positive!!!

When I was testing really early with dollar tree tests, my positives were always so light I thought they were evaps at first. But nope, I was really pregnant, and the lines just kept getting darker. Good luck!

Thanks for the responses! I'm planning on waiting until Friday to test again (let's see how long I can actually wait Lol) I just have these weird things happening to me. Very sore and full boobs, lots of cramping, really bad nausea, I have to run to the bathroom to pee every 10 minutes (Ok maybe not literally but it seems like it) and my lower abdomen feels really full, not like I ate too much, honestly it feels like when I was pregnant with my DD. Like I said, I'm totally in my head way to much.
