    I suggest the doctor and stop peeing on them at night. If your just barely PG it won't show up on a test taken in the evening with you forcing yourself to pee.

    I'm staying positive and going with ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
  • I know how frustrating this is because I have been there! Unless you have been bleeding heavily you haven't miscarried. More than likely you are just VERY early on and the hormone is not very strong in your urine. Just go to the doctor and have bloodwork and then you'll know. Regardless, good luck and try to relax! Stress is never a good thing! :wink:

    To save money on tests go to the dollar store I know you wouldn't think they would carry them but they do and they are only a dollar and work really well that's what I used with my son and that way you can test more :)

    OK. So I got up this morning and took a Clearblue Easy test and it was clearly positive. Took a First Response and could not see a positive line. Still confused but hopeful.

    The latest batches of First Response aren't working well, as I said last night. Lots of people are getting false negatives on them.

    I guess I will update real quick. I myself am finally convinced I am pregnant. Achy breasts and this taste in my mouth like when I drink water it tastes like aluminum foil! Made an appointment with my OBGYN today for four weeks out. Thanks for all the encouragement!

    blood test are more accurate. Go to your doctor and get this done, stop wasting your money on inaccurate urine test. Unless you are very pregnant some of those over the counter things may not really work. How may cycles have you missed?

    It sounds like you definitely are to me.. With my Daughter, I got between 5-10 negatives and only two positives before getting blood tests. And one of the positives and one of the negatives were taken with the very same pee. :laugh:

    AS another POAS adict I'd say you are pregnant! Read the test packets, I think FRER need a higher level of HCG to give a positive than clear blue. The level will be given in in µg.

    After 3 months the levels of HCG decline to nothing as other hormones take over, so no one would get a positive test at 7 months.

    First Response was the first EPT I used and I didn't realize the line was there until I held the thing at an angle and looked close (I was very hopeful) When its negative there is nooooo hint of a line, but as everyone has been saying you're more likely to get a false neg that a false positive. Good luck with the Doc visit!
  • Go to the doctor, get some blood drawn, and know for sure. It will happen in its on time. Hang in there.

    Let us know how you make out after the doctor's visit. Here's hoping!

  • Step 1: Since it might be too early to tell and you might actually still be pregnant: CHILL. Easier said than done, but if you're pregnant, the last thing you need, and the worst thing for the potential baby, is stress. It can lead to behavioral and emotional problems in childhood and throughout his or her potential life, and it's not going to be any good for you. Reach out to people who care for you--I'm very glad you posted on this forum, because that in and of itself is a step in the right direction. Remember--there are tens of thousands of people who don't even know you from Adam here, but we're bonded by a common objective of losing weight and getting healthy--and we're all behind you 100%.

    Step 2: See. Your. Doctor. Only he or she will be able to give you a conclusive diagnosis, and ONLY he or she will be able to recommend a course of action for you--if you really did miscarry, and you do something ill-advised now, that could seriously damage your chances of getting pregnant ever again, and you need to consult a physician as soon as possible.

    Step 3: Keep in mind that you're in all of our thoughts, our prayers, and our good intentions. There is nothing for you here but support and encouragement, and we'll stand shoulder to shoulder with you through anything. It's kind of the thing here.

    Guess I finally have a final answer for everyone. Last night while the hubby and I were out to eat and at a bookstore picking up some pregnancy books...I started bleeding terribly! Then the cramps started and felt like nothing I had ever experienced before! The pain lasted all night and into this morning with continued bleeding! We were so floored! We had lost our little 5 week old baby to a chemical miscarriage! I know we never heard its heartbeat but we loved the little one! Thanks ladies for all your input and encouraging words! Hopefully soon I can announce a new blessing of a baby that sticks!
  • I just read your latest reply - I lost a little one at the early stages as well and it's terrible. Best of luck in the future :)

    I'm so sorry for your loss! I wish that I had words to comfort you, but having been there myself, I know that there aren't any. I hope and pray that you will get your wish soon.

    I'm sorry. I know it is just like loosing a baby at any stage in pregnancy, no matter how early. It's sad and you will feel the loss. The baby that sticks will be the baby that was meant to be. There will be one in the future!

    I'm so sorry to hear about the miscarriage. Losing a little one has got to be one of the most difficult things to face. We're all thinking of you and hope you recover, mind, body, and soul soon.:-)

    Going to the doctor to get a blood test is the best bet. That wasy you can share your concerns with the doctor. Good luck and hope it all works for you. :)

    I know how hard this is. I, too, miscarried when my little one was 9 weeks. It was medically termed a molar pregnancy, which I never fully understood. I am praying for you and I wish you the best emotional recovery. It's hard...we are all here for you ;-)
