Sorry - just testing - Ignore

I only had one hpt in the house and in the past I have not gotten a positive until 13 dpiui - so I did not want to test early with my only test just to get negative.
But, the other day I went to dollar tree for a bunch of stuff for my sister's shower and the hpts were calling my name.
I tested at 10 dpo - negative
11 dpo positive??? too hard to tell
12 dpo faint but there POSITIVE
The line is so super faint (just like last times) - so I marked where the line is to make it easier to see.
I will be testing again tomorrow with my only FRER test - I just hope it is still positve and not that $tree tests are crap.
Here is the pic (this morning, 12 dpiui)
I am basically scared to death. This will be my third pregnancy since Feb and I don't want to go through another m/c.

For those that don't know my story - here it is:
Got married in Dec 2005.
We threw out the bcp in Oct 2006, thinking of course that we could plan when our baby was born. Yeah, right.
I kind of knew something was up. My first cycle after bcp was 110 days long. I never called the doc because ever week or so I SWORE I must be preg. Nope. At about 100 days, I finally called the doc and was Rx provera to bring on a period.
Next cycle was 70+ days, again provera.
By May, the doc Rx Clomid. I did a few rounds of Clomid with my OB with no success.
By 1 year trying I was thinking about going to an RE - but kept putting it off thinking that I could do it on my own. By this time, my cycles were a little more in the "normal" range and I even got a few + OPKs.
I finally made an appt in Jan to see an RE. At the first visit I was Dx with PCOS. They wanted to start clomid, trigger, IUI that same cycle. Did all the tests (hsg, sa, etc) and did IUI that next cycle.
We were successful with IUI#1!! but we lost the heartbeat at 8 weeks. D&C at 8.5 weeks. Loss was determined to be due to Trisomy 22.
I was hoping for a cycle after m/c miracle - no such luck. Took over 6 weeks to get post d&c period.
We had to do a clomid + TI cycle because of travel,etc - no surprise, BFN
Did another Clomid, trigger, iui in June (IUI#2) and were again successful. We lost this pregnancy at 6.5 weeks. Another D&C (2nd in less than 4 months). The results of the D&C were inconclusive.
We did the recurrent loss panel and it was determined that I have the MTHFR gene mutation. I was Rx Folgard - although the studies on MTHFR and m/c are up for debate.
Again, it took 6 weeks to get post d&c period.
We did IUI#3 - this time with injectables about 2 weeks ago. And here we are today.
I really hope this is a true postive and that is sticks around for a long long time!!!
So sorry it turned out so long.
