Sorry Got Another Question For Ya.
Posted: 09-11-04 12:36pm

Well, I don't know how many of you have taken digital test, but that's what i'm curious about. Both digital test I took said not pregnant, but when I popped the things off their were two blue lines on it. One was faint though. I've also had a faint positive on the first response, but only one. I know it seems as if I won't shut up about this, but i'm wondering if the digital test wouldn't pick it up because the second line was faint. What do you guys think. I don't think i've miscarried, but my symptoms have decreased a little bit this week. Any comments would be appreciated.

Lol! You crack me up! Okay so do you really think the digital test didn't pick up the second line then. I'm just curious. I don't know if the two lines mean anything. Is it normal to kinda loose symptoms though? I called planned parenthood because it's confusing the hell out of me. I'm going to go in on thursday I think.

Symptoms change as your hormone levels change.
The second line is caused by the presence of hcg - the pregnancy hormone, so unless you have this present, you don't get 2 lines.
So on a normal test a quantity of hcg will turn the line blue/pink.
The ept has to show the word not if the line does show and not show the word not if a line does show, so that to me is backwards.
Besides if the hormone has re-acted and turned the line visible then either you are pregnant or you are artificially maunfacturing hormones lol.
Go book your scan and let me know how big that baby is. Wink

I was laying awake this morning thinking about you and your disappearing symptoms :d
well, my bb's are no longer sore, seem to have stopped growing (for now), I am definately no where near as tired as I was in the first few weeks, I don't have any more cramps.
However I do find I gag when I cough, and I get heartburn if I don't eat small regular meals.
But in the first few weeks I felt really ill, tired beyond comprehension, like I had a really bad case of flu.
So I guess you could say my symptoms have dissappeared too Wink

How far along are you though? I'm wondering if because I got symptoms so early on they kinda stopped early because i've already suffered enough. The only thing I still get is fatigue, but now it's mostly around 7:00 p.M. My veins have even kinda stopped growing and aren't as dark as they were. Hmmm, strange huh?
