First Response Hpt Problem? Posted: 11-06-07 15:34pm
my girlfriend just took a first response
HPT this morning and it came out to be
what we think to be negative; let me
explain. She said when she took it out of
the wrapper it already had the one line
showing which is negative, she then took
it and waited the 3 minutes and it was
still one line, which means its
negative....Im confused because i don't
know if the one line was supposed to be
there before she even took it? and if it
was why doesn't it show it like that on
the picture on the directions? I'm
confused help is appreciated.

It wasn't supposed to have any lines when
she first taken out of the wrapper. If
the line didn't get any darker when she
took it, then I'd say you may have had a
defective test. Hopefully you bought a
package with two in it, since those things
can get quite expensive. If not, you may
want to go to a local Dollar Tree (other
dollar stores tests are different, so if
you can, go here) and pick up a few of
their baby tests for a dollar. They
detect pregnancy as early as First
Response's do and are only a dollar. If
nothing else, just run back to walmart.
Make sure she is testing at the time of
her missed period and not too early so
that you can get accurate results.
Good luck hun!

negative.... do you think its safe to say
shes not preggers now that she took it 10
days after her missed period? What should
we do next since she hasn't started?

Take another test in a few days if she
doesn't start. DO NOT HAVE UNPROTECTED SEX
before her next period.
