hello
u have mentioned ur last period but could u also tell how much delayed ur periods r this time

u r experiencing headache , fatigue, nausea (pregnancy symptoms )& ur upt showing faint test line ( weakly positive )so u r pregnant

please repeat ur upt with first morning urine sample as this urine is more concentrated & less chances of missing pregnancy

if ur repeat upt is also weakly positive, then there r 2 possibilities
first is very early pregnancy & hcg hormone in the body r low so faint line on upt
second is ectopic pregnancy here patient usually have abdominal pain or spotting also ( history of 2 abortions also increase the chances of ectopic pregnancy )

in any case if ur upt remains weakly positive u require urgent gynaecological check up to rule out ectopic pregnancy .bhcg & ultrasound may also be required if ur doctor suspect ectopic pregnancy

hope this could help you
