Am I Pregnant? I Hope Not! Posted: 08-24-04 13:22pm
My period usually comes the 1st week of
the month and last 2 months it came 1 week
before around the 22nd. I have not had my
period yet this month. My breasts have
been really tender and my tummy has been
real making those funny rumbling sounds
like your hungry solid the last 2 days. I
may be paranoid also and it may be nerves.
I have also started curves workout 4
times a week since august 1st and never
worked out before then so my bosy is
changing.
I took 2 preg tests yesterday because I
was paranoid and the answer brand came out
positive but line was real faint and I
freaked and went out and got the ept test
and took that an hour later and it was
negative after the 5 minute wait but
showed up positive real faintly an hour
later. I am so confused. What do you
guys think? Am I just paranoid?
Thanks in advance

When you took the second test an hour
later you probably didn't have enough
hormone to show up.
If you are not using first morning
(overnight in bladder) urine, you need to
make sure it is at least 4 hours old (in
bladder) and that you haven't have an
excess to drink (will flush and dilute
hormones)
positive tests are rarely wrong negative
ones can be wrong.
Even a faint line positive is rarely wrong
(maybe be faint because urine not
strong/old (in bladder) enough, very early
in pregnancy etc)
my advice would be to either take another
test (making sure the urine is strong
enough) or pref get a blood test.
If you don't want to be pregnant you need
to find out fast so you can consider your
options if you are pregnant and it does
sound as if you could be.
