I have always heard that a line is a line - it doesn't matter how dark or light it is. Different tests can read differently. I know people who've used several different tests and got a dark positive on one and a faint line on another.

I think if you saw a heartbeat, you're doing great! Congrats! :)

Three pee sticks came up light but clearly positive for me. I'm 25 weeks and change now. Like the previous commenter mentioned a positive is a positive really. :) Congrats!

It doesn't matter how light or dark the line is. A line is a line...buuuuut be careful with blue-dye tests because they tend to leave dark evaporation lines that could easily be mistaken as a positive (I know because it happened to me, and apparently there are a lot of women out there who have had the same experience and are trying ban blue-line tests)...but since there was a heart beat, you're definitely pregnant! Congratulations!

P.S. I had brown spotting at 10 weeks (much to my dismay because my previous pregnancy ended in miscarriage) but my son is now 13 months old, and other than the spotting, I had a completely uneventful pregnancy...in a good way. :)

your doctor sounds like an asshat. lol

not all pee sticks are created equal. The ones at the doctor's office are actually less sensitive than store bought ones. And then even with that there's variation within brands.

A line is a line is a line. My own line was thin. That was almost 10 months ago.
