Default A bit in shock

I got a bfp last night. my lmp was December 21st, and according to that if i had a regular 28 day cycle I would have concieved on the 4th of January, but I am pretty sure I ovulated early and it was the 29th of December, we dtd on the 28th, I know tmi. But I was almost positve there was no way I could of gotten pregnant, yet the next day I had ovulation signs. And then a week later i spotted which i am pretty sure was implantation bleeding. I have never had implantaion bleeding before, but what is even more amazing is that the line that came up is super dark, way darker then it ever has been for how early on in this pregnancy i am. I have a huge feeling it is twins, but I don't know if just how dark the second line is is any indication.



Here is the pic



seriosly the test line is darker then the control line.

I should be due around September 20th, what are your thoughts?

I know I am pregnant, but I was wondering about me thinking it is twins due to how dark the line is for being so newly pregnant, I haven't had that dark of line until I am like 8 weeks pregnant before.

It's my understanding that you're pregnant or not by those tests, no indication on 'how' pregnant you are? It may be that particular test has a really dark indicator as opposed to others that don't. You may have had a higher concentration of the hormone in your urine at the time you took the test as opposed to another time when your concentration might not be as high, not an indicator of the overall hcg in your body overall - if that makes sense.

Congrats!!!

... and yeah, I don't think the line being darker is any indication of being twins... when I was pregnant with twins my line was super light just like any of my singletons... it just means you're pregnant and that there was probably more dye on the one side than on the control line...

Congrats!! I'll just add that I took 3 tests this time (different brands), and all 3 tests were different as far as how dark the line was even though they were all taken the same day. I had one super dark, 1 really faint, and one sorta in the middle.

Congrats!

I agree with the other ladies on the lines. With JP, my lines were instantaneous and super dark. With Devin, they were barely noticeable. I took 8 tests, seven were very, very faintly positive and one was a dude (no control line either). I really wasn't sure I was pregnant until the doctor ran a test.

I agree that the darkness is not an indicator of twins in my experience - I've had 5 kiddos, and some the lines were barely there and other times dark.

Congrats

Congrats mama! I always used the digital tests because my husband wouldn't trust any other ones, LOL so I have no idea about the darkness of the line.

In my experience, the time I didn't know I was pregnant until 6 weeks, my line was instant and dark, and the other two when I was taking EPT's at 4 weeks, they were fainter.

Congratulations!

My testline was darker than my controle line too....at a certain point in the pregnancy you HcG level is the highest. if you would test further and further in the pregnancy you will see that you test line will be lighter and lighter.
And I am really pregnant of one child.

Congrats!

When I took my test with Kennedy the lines were dark and showed up instantly! I didn't even have time to pull up my pants before they were showing. I was around 6 weeks when I found out I was pregnant.

I don't really think it matters how light or dark the lines are. But you are definitely pregnant...no denying that.

Again Congrats!

Congratulations!! Like Traci, my lines were always instant and dark, plus my levels of HcG hormone were always elevate in the tests - and that can be a sign you'll have twins - but no twins for me.

Congratulations

With Zach, mine started to show up almost IMMEDIATELY when I peed on the stick. It was dark, super obvious, and he was a solo baby... but, who knows?

I do want to add that if you're strongly feeling emotionally that it's twins, then that's probably more of an indicator than the pregnancy test. I have yet to be wrong about feeling my own child's gender and the gender (and number of multiples) of friends of mine. I think it's more of a hormone-sensation

Just as previous posters had said, it's not saying how pregnant you are!! I have twin boys, and I took a few tests. The first test was the day I was supposed to be on my period, and the test was negative. I took another test 3 or 4 days later, and the line took FOREVER to come up, and it was so faint. I also tried a few different brands, so I know it wasn't that! I knew I was having twins because my morning sickness was HORRIBLE, and I was seriously sleeping all the time. I lost 15 pounds during the first 2 months of my pregnancy (I got put on zofran and started gaining weight), and I think I was sleeping around 16 hours a day during the first trimester. I was also dreaming in doubles. 2 trees, 2 cats etc (but that could of just been because I was sure I was having twins). When I had my first ultrasound done at 8 weeks, I wasn't surprised at all when the ultrasound tech said I was pregnant with twins. Anyways, good luck!!
