i took one this morning with my first morning urine at 7:05am

2 - 3 minutes into the test it has a faint 2nd line but at first glance it looked to be a - result so i put it more into the light and sure enough there is a faint line but its not dark... its barely there but it is there if you get my drift.

i have taken many pregnancy tests before useing this particular brand and it has always been -. i have been trying for about 6 months with my other half to get pregnant so im hoping it is +.

i have brought another box of pregnancy tests with 3 in it so it is possible for me to take another test which ever day i like.

when should i test again?
should i try again in the morning just to mke sure it was a +?
will the line be any darker?

I wanted to know which poses a greater threat to a babies health, or which had the most germs that affect humans, common body parts like our hands and lips, or something like a dog or a cat?

I had a disagreement with my GF when she was freaking out about a baby sucking on a dogs ear and the dog trying to lick the baby back. I replied that her hands were much more likely to get the baby sick than the dog, and people kissing the baby will likely give it herpes or something.

Also does being exposed to a dog at a young age cause you to have allergies later in life?

Came up w/ Chevy as a joke. Now hubby likes it. I would rather a "real" name. Either way, we want good initials/short form like my son Jayden(Jay) Tyler - J.T.L. Which one do you prefer Tyson(Ty) Karter - T.K.L., or Chevy(Chev?) James - C.J.L. (BOTH sound great w/ our last name)

Sooo.....
Which do you like best?
Tyson (Ty) Karter - T.K.L.
or
Chevy (Chev?) James - C.J.L.

Also, if you can think of any other short form for Chevy...

In my teenage i was a go with the flow girl with a nerdy look(i liked po music,dressed to the trend...).Now that i'm supposed to grow up it started to get freaky. i'm more interested in goth matters,Goth music,etc... i even want to get a goth look and style. Is it just a phase?
All my friends are not goth and they don't want me to be like this,It scares them.
P.S: i'm 20 years old and i have 15 year old goth sister and a goth(without the look) mother.

It was supposed to start the 7th, and nothing happened except for some brownish spotting for 3 days. It never turned into a flow. It was never enough to wear a tampon or even a panty liner. I'm thinking that this might be implantation bleeding.

However, I took a test 5 days after my period was due and the spotting occurred, and it was negative. Is it possible that it was still too early even though it was 5 days after my period was supposed to start? Also, I didn't use first morning urine.

Just wondering. I supposedly ovulated on the 23rd of December and I have been having a lot of unprotected sex. 2 weeks later, my period was due, but there wasn't nothing but some brown spotting. I took a test but it was negative. If I conceived, I concieved about 3 weeks ago yet am still showing negative on a test.

I tested on Friday. Should I try again? Is it possible to still show negative on a test if you're 20 dpo?

You must live a very boring life to want to do that. Thats what your mid-20 to mid-30s are for.....procreation(a good ten years to do it)? Enjoy your youth it only comes once!!!! Why do people want to grow up so fast.....do you live in a farm or third-world country? Maybe lack of opportunities?

People are telling me to let my fussy 3 month old "cry it out" at night?!!?!? Isnt that way too young? When he does cry, his cry is terrifying!!, You'd think he was dying, nothing like his twin who is more calm.
Is 3 months old too young to expect to sleep through the night? If not, How did you get your babies to sleep through the night at this age?! We're in desperate need of sleep!! But when it comes to letting him cry well I just dont think I can do it, he still seems so small to me..?

I was wondering is it ok to have sex before a physical? Can they tell if you have any semen in you? A couple of weeks ago my friend went to the hospital for a gyn and I was waiting for her outside and I heard the doctors speaking and one lady doctor was saying "she never saw so much germs"- I felt that was unprofessional. How can you talk about a patient to where as other people can hear.. Now being a nursing student I know they are to practice Patient privacy and for one they did not.
I told my friend and she felt very embarrased but then she remembered she had sex with her man and he ejaculated all in her and she didnt feel so bad anymore. Do you think it was right for what they did? Can something be done?

I started a new job on the 3rd of January. Literally 20 minutes before I started the job I did a pregnancy test as my period was 1 day late - it came back positive and it has since been confirmed by the doctor. I did not know I was pregnant when I signed the contract.

I am worried as I am on the probation period of my new job and also because I am unsure what maternity rights I will have. I am happy to be pregnant but I have studied for 4 years to be able to do this job and don't want to loose it.

I have not told my employers that I am pregnant.

Any advice welcome - as long as its sensible x x
