Confused Test
Posted: 07-29-05 10:50am

Okay, I already asked this question in another thing but i'm going to ask again.

I took 3 tests that all said negative.

And I took a fourth that was positive and then turned negative.

A girl posted and said that might be a false positive...Chemical pregnancy...

Has anyone else had this problem?

I understand that a test only works for a short amount of time, and then the reading will change. It's possible that you are pregnant, and kept looking at the test when it changed and gave the false reading.

A chemical pregnancy is when the test results show that you are pregnant, but you have no signs or symptoms. This result may mean that the egg has been fertilised, but has not been able to implant.

I would go and see your doctor and discuss this situation with him.

Good luck and I hope that it all works out for you.

On the box it says that even if the line is faint, aslong as you can see it, its a positive! But definitely both of you take another pregnancy test, and good luck!

Try testing first pee of the morning (if you already have not) because that is when the hormones are at there peak. You can also try peeing into a cup or disposiable bowl (incase you haven't already) and hold it in the pee for several seconds, I did that when I was testing and it made it easier. Good luck to you!

theres no false positives, if its says positive then your pregnant, at least thats what I hear doctors tell people, maybe you need t wait at leats 1 more week then do another test, please keep us informed on ur problem.

Hmmm well okay.

The last day of my late period which is the day I took that test that went + then -, I went to work, office job and my husband surprised me with lunch and so ya know I was confused all day and spilled the beans to him that I thought we were pregnant...We were pretty excited except we want to wait until like december or january to actually get pregnant. Well anyways about 1/2 our later I had some blood come out, extrememly light....And it only lasted like 15 minutes. So i've tested 2 times since then and got both neg. I was going to wait until thursday or friday and do it again...Because that's a week after. But i'm afraid ladies that i'm not pregnant. There's a part of me that reallllly wanted to be but I also know that it's probably not the right time yet and I know god's timing is perfect so I just have to be patient. Maybe this christmas or something.
