Pregnant Or Not? Gee-whizz!! Posted: 07-02-07 13:58pm
My son's girlfriend has taken a variety of
pregnancy tests in the last week. Last
Thursday, a brand I ordered off line
showed 2 negative results, and 1 with
faint positive, thought maybe they weren't
reading correctly, or she was reading them
incorrectly . So she then took two EPT
certainty (actually says PREGNANT or NOT
PREGNANT). Both clearly said PREGNANT. She
repeated, a 3rd test, the next morning,
again......it clearly said PREGNANT! She
promptly made an appointment at the WIC
office, but the test they performed showed
negative?? Again, she went an bought
another EPT Certainty test, 4th time
now!!..........which again says PREGNANT??
Could it just be too early for some
tests?? Her last period (~memorial day)
was only light spotting for a day & a
half. I recommended she have a blood
test.......but not sure "how much"
pregnant you need to be (haha) before a
blood test would show positive.

Wow...sounds weird.
I would definitely say she's
pregnant...the digital one is very
accurate. She should get a blood test
done....I don't it's too early.
I hope she gets the outcome she wants!
Good luck, keep us posted!

If I remember correctly, a blood test
would pick up a pregancy sooner than an
HPT would. And the digital tests are
fairly accurate. It's more likely that the
wic and internet hpt's were less sensitive
(and some may even have been duds).

I would say shes pregnant! She can have a
blood test now nd that will give her a
definite result! It is very rare to get
false positive esp 4!! but false negatives
can happen as it could be too early for
some hpts.
I would either get a blood test done or
wait a week and test again with a normal
hpt and she should see a positive result!
