Thread: Update, I got my positive still worried though

I got my positive pregnancy test this morning. However I'm still worried something is wrong.My period was due on the 25th of June, and I took a test which came back negative, while this test I took this morning was positive it was still very faint. I'm well past the time for my period and I think the positive should be stronger, I think my hcg levels are low. When I got pregnant last time I took a test the day my period was to start and the positive was strong and showed up instantly, this is why I'm worried. I'm fairly positive I ovulated either on the 13h or 14th of June, so I know it's not, my miscalculating when I ovulated. I'm really worried about ectopic pregnancy. I don't know if I should be this worried, or if it is just my fears because I recently suffered a miscarriage. Have any of you had low levels or positive test that took a while to show up, and everything be ok. I'm so scared right now I don't know what to do, I could really use some advice.

From what I understand, if you have an ectopic, you'll have a lot of pain, on one side. Do you? Also, if you have a blood test and then go back in for another your levels should actually decrease because the pregnancy isn't developing. You should make an appointment with your clinic for a blood test. I do think that since it's so early, that's probably the cause of the faint line. You could take another home test before you get in to a doctor just to put your mind at ease. Every pregnancy is different, just keep that in mind.
