Q: Early Response Pregnancy Tests
asked by: JennyJ on December 2nd, 2005

I took an early response test today. It was negative. My period isn't due until december 5th. I swear I think i'm pregnant though. It says you can test up to 5 days before your missed period. Has anyone had a false negative with these? Please respond if these have/haven't worked for you! I'm going crazy! Lol!

I have had a false test on more than 1 occasion.. Good uck hun but you can always wait until you miss you period and then test again.. You might not be pregnant.. And if you are the hcg level may not be hight enough to get a positive

Hummm
I used early response 5 days before my expected period and I got a positive so maybe you got pregnant later in the month and your hcg levels are not high enough

Am I Pregnant?
I am 34 yrs. Old and I have had three boys and I get pregnant through insimination and it always took on the first try and I never bled with any nor did really get a neg. Home test but my gut says im preg. But I dont know I was suppose to start on the 2 of dec. But I started bleeding on the 26th and stoped on the 28th. I am usually regular but my nipples are not sore. I do need to potty alot, im very moody, and I have been dizzy and had strange vivid dreams but thats all. So what do ya'll think? All test say negative and I took one on the day after the bleeding stoped on the morning of the 30th and it was neg. Im going crazy wondering? Any help out there?

I guess i'll wait and retest if my period doesn't come. My lower back has been hurting, sore boobs, and I have been very tired lately. I just wonder if it's my mind playing tricks on me though! I will keep you posted anyway. I hope i'm pregnant!

False Test
Oh yeah!!! It is so nice to read your emails! I just did an early test today, this morning - it's supposed to tell you 4 days before you missed your period, but mine came out negative also! I stopped taking the pill early last month and we have been having sex every other day....My lower back is killing me, I have been sooo tired, I felt like throwing up one time at that was at night.
I have been sooo gassy (more than usual - lol), and I have had the worst cramping and shooting pains on both lower abdomenal sides (it goes back and forth) for at least a week now...Like as if I am going to get my period, and I got white rubbery discharge - so much, I really ran to the bathroom thinking I got my period - that has been going on for the last few days too!
Well, anyone?!?!??! I don't have soar boobs at all or are they swollen and no color change of my nipples. Is it in my mind or do you think i'm pregnant?!?!?! I hope I am!! I don't really know when i'll get my period, I think I should get it on the 7th (remember I just stopped taking the pill, my last day of the pill was nov. 2nd - those were the placebo days, so the official day of not taking the pill was nov. 8th).

Any advice or anything out there??!?!!?! Thank you!!!

Stopped Pills Too
Hey debbsie! I stopped taking bc pills around the same time you did. I have been curious to see if some people get pregnant right away. I have been having mild cramps on and off during the day but that is about it. Let me know what happens!

Hi everybody! Keepin mind that we are all different. Sometimes it takes awhile to get preggers after getting off of b/c as it generally takes a while for the hormones to get out of your system others can get preggers right off the bat. Stress and anxiety can slow down the process of your period and it can also give you pregnancy signs. If you feel you are pregnant andhpt's keep coming out neg go to the Dr. And get a blood test. I know of several females that took several hpt's and they all came out neg and then they went to the dr and got blood test and some were positive.
Good luck!
Baby dust to those that want and are ready to be pregnant.

It's Me Again
Hi again, I know so many women who get pregnant when they forgot to take the pill (mind you they weren't tyring to get pregnant) and I hear about women who got off the pill and got pregnant within 1-3 mths there after....But I guess is does depend on each woman, especially depends if you ovulate right away after getting off the pill.

Have any of you been super duper gassy when you were pregnant (like very early in pregnancy)? I have been and I haven't changed anything in my diet. I think I need a gas mask :shock:
