Preggo Tests
Posted: 11-27-04 16:20pm

Well I took a hpt this morning, and i'm confused about the results...The instructions picture showed that there would be a vertical line in the result window if it was positive, but when I did it, I saw a light, but definitely visable horizontal line....What does that mean?

I wasn't sure what to think of it...So I don't know if I should be excited or disappointed. Lol I wish these things would just be easier to understand. Good luck getting the answer u want though Smile

I took a test about two weeks ago... The instructions says that you will see a result within 5 minutes but the results came in about 30 seconds(negative).. I don't think that it should happen like that......Still no period so I have to see

With the light line it could mean yes. If u read all of the instructions it says that even with the light line I could mean yes. Thats how mine second test showed. On the first the line showed up real quick. But I needed to be for sure. Hope that helps

yeah I read all the instructions about the light line meaning positive too, but I was just curious about the direction of the line....Cuz in the picture, it shows a vertical line....And the one I saw was horizontal....I'm just curious if that could mean the same thing... Confused

If the line came up horizontally it was probably an evaporation line. Thats happened to me on a negative test and I wasn't sure either so I called the number on the back and thats what they told me

I think you need to retake one. If a different direction line came up, then maybe somthing was wrong w/ the test.

Try the one that actually says pregnant or not pregnant or the one w/a plus or minus!! Mine had a very faint line but it was there!! I am now 15 wks.
