OMG...what's wrong?

[!Chrissie!]

Ok, on the 19th i took a pregnancy test and it came up POSITIVE. I used a CVS early responce test, the line was faint, but definetely blue and there. I took an equate today and i got a NEGATIVE!! There is a little something there, but i would still consider the test negative. I know that his can happen and the person still be pregnant, but i don't know what to think now I'm going to try taking a digital on tuesday, and i'm going to take another equate test in the morning with fmu.

I was so excited to finally be pregnant...What should i do?
Has this happened to anyone else that was actually pregnant? HELP!!!

Thanks,
Chrissie

if you have money, buy the first response early detection test.
that one will confirm any doubts you might have.

 

[Jenny]

I agree with Aqua. That test would definitely tell you if your pregnant or not. Its still promising that you saw something on the other test, it just might not read that much HCG. Good luck hon!.

 

[AquaDementia]

yeah, in the very beginning HCG is low low low and some crappy tests don't detect it regularly.
my advice is don't buy clear blue, it really stinks.

 

[!Chrissie!]

Yeah, i'm just so sad now. I was certain todays test would be really dark...instead i got nothing at all!!! I posted my test, and it was DEF. not an evap line. I might take another test tonight after holding it for a while and see what i get. I took those other tests today after not going to the bathroom for about 3 hours. I'm hoping that my pee might have been too diluted or something... If i take the test tonight i won't be able to take one in the morning, but i'll take 2 more on monday, then a digital on tuesday.

I'm just so worried that i had a miscarriage or something like that

 

[Vickie]

Did you take the test today with FMU? Maybe that's why you didn't get a dark line? The other possibility is that the equate test is not as sensive as the other. Don't give up hope yet. Test again tomorrow with FMU and let us know how it goes

 

[!Chrissie!]

I'm def. not giving up hope yet, i want a baby WAY too much to be detered by this little complication. I'm just looking at my BFP and i'm holding hope in that faint blue line ^.^ I just know that i'm pregnant. My bbs and nips are sore, and my back hurts. My bm's have all been really weird for about 2 weeks now, and i've heard that that's a pretty good pg symptoms. I've also had insomnia for about a week now, but i'm exhausted all the time. I'm just hoping that the cvs test was more sensitive then the equate one or some other little trivial thing like that.

I'm havin' a baby and that all there is to it

 

[jchaney85]

I wouldnt recommend the digital even tho it seems like it would be accurate cuz i took one last month and it said i was preggo and then the next day i took another one and it said not preggo and also on the ttc board a few of the other ladies had that problem too.

 

[!Chrissie!]

I'm only taking the digital after i take a line test...i just want to read the "pregnant" read-out lol. I'm just scared to death to get a "Not Pregnant" read-out

 

[jchaney85]

ya i think there cool but make sure you double check it with the line ones. lol i thought they would be more accurate but im guessing not lol

 

[!Chrissie!]

Well i tested again this morning with FMU, and there was a darkened spot in the middle of the horizontal line where the vertical line should have intersected, but that's all. I guess that i was pregnant, but i'm not anymore. I'm guessing chemical pregnancy. I'm going to test again on monday just to make sure, and then i'm going to go to the doctor to make sure that i didn't have a missed miscarriage or something like that. I'm just so sad now...i can't believe that this has happened. The worst part of it is, my family/friends know, and so do a bunch of people from work...i'm going to feel like an idiot when i tell them that i'm not pregnant anymore

I also still feel pregnant, how weird is that...

 

[april24343]

Im so sorry sweetie! I know how hard it is! I have had 2 losses this year Were you usin the same kind of test each time? If not that could be why you dont have a positive on them but did on the others! Some pick up at lower levels.....I hope you have answers soon! How many DPO are you?

April

 

[!Chrissie!]

Idk how many dpo i am, my ovulation is rather random. I just felt odd so i tested. I STILL feel odd. My breasts are even sorer then they were yesterday, as are my nips. My bm's are still being weird. I'm going to go out and buy the same brand test that i took the first time and see what happens there. I'm hoping that it was just the kind of test that i took. I still have my first BFP test, and i can still see the line, it is lighter now then it was at first though. I love to look at it lol...i know that it seems silly.

I might be in the percent of women who don't metabolize hcg in their urine very well. I read an article at peeonastick.com and she said that some women NEVER get a positive pg test. I'm hoping that i'm one of them. I guess that i'm just trying to be as hopeful as possible i this situation. I also haven't experienced any signs of a m/c, so here's to luck ^.^

Do you even know your cycle date?

I have experienced a number of chemical pregnancies and the hCG declined quite quickly followed by what was like a normal period.

If you test with FMU and are getting a clear hCG trace I would pop & see your GP about it and they should do a blood count for you.

 

[!Chrissie!]

My last bleed was November 4th, but it only lasted for a day and a half. It came 10 days early, so i had a 34 day cycle instead of the usual 44. I thought that it might be implantation bleeding, but i didn't test. I thought that it had been too heavy. I was hoping that my cycles were getting shorter. I would be on CD 21 if i go by the last time i bled. If i would go by my last normal period, i would be on CD 54 about 10 days over due for my period. WAY more time then i would need to test positive on a pregnancy test. I had been having symptoms for about 4 or 5 days before i tested on the 19th.

I wish i could just look inside my uterus to see what's going on...that would make everything SOOO much easier lol!!!

 

[Wobbles]

I really think you should go and see your GP about this Chrissie on Monday first thing and explain everything from the bleed to the positive tests.

[!Chrissie!]

Yeah, i'm going to go in first thing tuesday morning, that's as soon as i can get in. I know you're not here to diagnose me, but what do you think's wrong? I keep having symptoms such as sore breasts and peeing all the time. My back hurts, and i have heartburn. My cm isn't tinged with blood or anything like that. I haven't had any cramps or sharp pains. This is all just so confusing and heartbreaking for me. Have any of you ladies experienced anything like this and still came out of it with a baby?

If you're having a lot of difficulty with home tests, maybe you could try a test at a clinic or gyno. *hug*
