5 days late.i did a pregancy test, it came up with a positive faint line..did it after 3 days line is getting lighter instead of darker. am i pregnant?

A line is a line: A positive test is a positive test. Each test is different and i wouldn't use the darkness of the lines as any indicator. Your doctor can order a blood test to see if the number is going up properly.
