Need Help... BFP or Not?

in Pregnant after 35

Ladies,

DH and I have been trying to get a BFP since our m/c in November 2012.  

I am a POAS addict using Wondfos (pink hcg handles) and starting testing 9dpo; I got a very faint pink BFP (so I was hoping) right at the 5 minute mark.  I've tested 5 times since Saturday morning and continue to get the faint pink BFP at the 5 minute mark.  I had an extra Dollar Tree test that is supposed to sensitive to 20miu and it tested BFN this morning.  

I don't know what to make of this.  I know I am still very early at 10dpo but the uncertainty of this is killing me.  I've read conflicting information on the Wondfos and how they are known for evap lines.  Is it possible to have 6 evap lines? I've been using Wondfos since February and they are stark white when BFN.

What do you make of this?

TIA, 

Me, 41; DH 38; TTC since July 2012, 1st round of Clomid, BFP on 10/19, what an incredible blessing!  M/c on 7w3d; D&C on 11/30; 4th round of Clomid 100mg = BFP on 04/19!!! M/c #2 at 7w; D&C on 5/30, then repeat D&C on 7/1.  Saline u/s on 8/2, uterus looks great!  Will start TTC in 09/13 w/ Clomid 100mg. Surprise natural BFP on 8/25!!! Beta #1=95, #2=182, #3=404!  EDD 5/4/13...Grow baby grow!

    I think you can be optimistic but your just going to have to wait a few more days to confirm. Which I know is frustrating.. Wondfo's pick up extremely low levels of HCG, I've gotten positives on Wonfos with a beta of only 8 so it's definatley possible you

    Wondfos are very sensitive so I would say you are getting bfps not evaps. This early a faint line is totally normal. There is always a chance of a cp but you just have to wait it out. I would just keep testing with fmu only. If you are planning on g

    Thank you ladies.  I am feeling much better now after reading your replies.  When I purchased the wondfos the listing said "sensitive to 25 miu"; I hope they are more sensitive than this and would explain why the dollar tree brand was negativ

    I got my BFP on a wondfo at 10 dpo and it was very, very faint.  I also tried a dollar tree one that day and it was stark white negative, no line.  The wondfos got darker each day and the dollar tree tests didn't show a line until 13 dpo.

    I found this site helpful when I was testing early with my last BFP.  It shows pics of the various tests and users indicate what DP0 the test was taken and the outcome.

    Ah, I remember these days! The wait is excruciating. Unfortunately it is just time that will reveal the definite answer. It does sound hopeful though. I echo other PPs, get a FRER!

    How did the testing go this morning?
