The positive line is very light..... Is it still a positive? That's why I tried to get the best picture....

Wanting another?

Anyone else starting to really want another? I couldn't do 2 under 2 so I've planned on holding off until this baby is 2.5-3 years old before starting to try again.. but part of me also doesn't want to wait that long

Pink Evap Lines?

Hubby and I had an… equipment failure and I’m pretty sure I was ovulating at the time. I took three tests yesterday and they all had faint lines during the test window. They’ve only become more evident and pink as they dried out. I took a couple more this morning and they seemed a bit lighter and more difficult to s...

Can you love your children and hate being a parent at the same time?

I love my kids. I would die for them, kill for them, they will have my unconditional love, no matter what. I feel like I don’t like being a parent. Is this normal? Does anybody else feel like this

Freaking out!

Okay, so I should be 4+5 pregnant today. I had a blood test on Wednesday which was 640. I also took a digital test on Thursday which showed 2-3. I decided to take a test this afternoon (midday) and the line just doesn’t seem that dark! Should I be worried?

Help me please

This doesn't seem right? Why is the line so light? Am I supposed to look at the strips when I eject them from the device? Or is it like a digital pregnancy test would be where I'm not supposed to look at anything?
