Please Any Advice Worried
Posted: 02-25-04 10:29am

I took hpt last night and I got a bfp! Within 1 minute. There were definitely two lines and then after 10m I looked at it again and the second line was completely gone. I could only see an evaporation line where second line was. The test says a positive should stay for 48 hours. Please tell me what is going on. Am I or not sooo confused. Nurse said they do that, the line disappears and I am but I called hpt place and they said I could of saturated it so much the dye came off, but I have saturated a previous test before and no second line and this one I only did it for the 5 or 6 seconds. Please help as to whether you think I am or not. Thanks

Hello,

I think that was a faint line.. Some show up for few minute then dies off in few second. So if you arent sure .. Take a test again and or go to the clinic to get an accurate answer. I hope I helped

Nikl I would test again and this time I would leave the test for the required amount of time and if u get two line again I would assume ur pregnant and go from there. However do not use the test after the time has expired and work urself up, if this test comes back - go to a doc and have him test ur or ask for a blood test to be absolutely sure.

Are u ttc or wa this an unwelcomed surprise

Hi
the tests will show 2 lines early on as the liquid is absorbed along the "stick". I would agree with allusivepond, take another test and look at it at the alloted time and go from there

I used the answer hpt. Tues night, went and bought another answer hpt wed and an equate hpt. Last night took second answer and same thing within 30 sec to minute second faint line, then after 12m disappeared. Of course I couldn't wait till morning to take equate test after getting 2 positives, so 2 hours later took the equate test and nothing. Looked at equate test this morning and there was 2nd line but I know you can't read test after the time limit so I disregarded it. Took 2nd equate test this morning and absolutely nothing!! I am sooo confused. Two positives (answer brand) 1 faint positive but only after time expired(equate) 1 neg(equate) this morning. Help! P.S. I just did some research on the answer early test and equate. Answer early detects at 25 mui and equate walmart detects at 100 mui that might be reason for neg on equate. What do you think?? On all test I read within req time except equate that showed pos after sitting overnight which I disregarded. I would only be 2 1/2 weeks along if I was ( going off of when concep would of happened not last af).

You cannot look at the test until after the alloted time. That is why it says that on the box.. My suggestion to you is buy the ept again, do not look at it until 1-2 minutes have passed. Ok ? That way if there are two lines after you have waited, then that means you are pregnant, but wait, I have a better idea, there is a new pregnancy test out that says pregnant if you are pregnant, and says not pregnant if you are not.. I think this one will be the best choice for you.. Good luck. I dont know what the name of this test is for sure, but look at the boxes and see which one says that about the word pregnant or not.. Good luck !!!!

Ur still jumping the gun u have to wait the required time to look at a test and u cannot look at a test after the expired time. Also ur first morning urine has the most levels of hcg in ur system thats y we said wait till morning.

I would buy 2 more tests and then test first thing in the morning and if im still unsatisfied I would go to the doc and ask for a blood test at least this way u will know for sure.

Are u trying to get pregnant or wot

I don't know if I was real clear in my post b/c of confusion, but I did look at results in alloted time frame except for the one that I disregarded that was positive after it sat all night. The other two that were answer early were positive in time frame but after 12-15m turned neg. I did all testing correctly thats why conf. Obgyn nurse told me that many of their hpt's turn neg after 15m and I assume the neg on equate test were b/c they weren't as sensitive as answer early. Very frustrated. Yes I would like to be pregnant and I have set up appt with dr fri.

The digital pregnancy test is called clear blue. I might have reccomended this to u or sum1 else, but I would spend the extra couple bucks and try a non generic test. I got a quick positive the first time I tested with fact plus and my period was only 4 days late. So that is what I reccomend. Good luck to you and ur ttc.

I went to dr today and I am heartbroken. I thought for sure they would say positive but it was negative. They had no explanation for the two previous positives(just last night and day before). The only thing I did different is I got the 2 positives at night and this neg I did with first morning urine. I still feel extremely tired, pains in breast and swollen but not sore, thought of food makes me sick, slight cramping off and on etc. I guess I will just have to go with the neg.

Only urine and she didn't do any kind of pelvic or offer a blood test but just seemed suprised when I told her I had 2 hpt positivs the 2 previous days. I keep imagining that maybe she accidently didn't see a very faint line (wishful thinking) when I called to ask if they did do blood testing she said they really didn't need to b/c the urine test was so sensitive and they hadn't had any problems that she knew of.
