monica9 - 58 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) no, it just means you took the test later than your missed period. It means your blood has a lot of hcg in it. hcg number double every 24 hours and those levels are what makes the line appear.

RobinG - 58 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) I dont think that will indicate it, 50/50 chance I'd say ~ it measures hcg levels, the higher it is the darker it is yes but it can be darker even with single. My lines were all darker ~ and I never had twins. And depending on how many weeks you are the darker it may be ~ if you OV earlier in your cycle it may be darker too ~ lots of things can make it darker so if you do have twins the line will not be the way to know it, only an U/S can say for sure. Unless of course you have fetility drugs and there is a good chance on multiples and you tested the day your period was due there may be a chance since it is so dark ~ ya never know ~ If you know the HCG #'s specifically that could tell too since it will be drastically higher ~

My line was so faint this time I wasnt even sure if it counted as a positive and I am preggo with twins. you could always get your hcg levels checked to see if they are higher than average. Good luck and congrats on your pregnancy!
