I'm sorry for all the roller coasting you must be doing... it's no fun.

I know how hard it is, but I would just wait... it's still early... give it a few more days.

Good luck!

At 12dpo I got a faint positive, 13dpo the line was slightly darker, and finally, a blaring positive the day after expected af.

I wouldn't worry too much, take a deep breath, and wait. It's so early and tests are so sensitive. Maybe wait until the day af is expected and try again with FMU? Good luck!
this really gives me hope! Tomorrow or the day after is day12 sooo...I guess I'll just try and chill. My dh is being very sweet and telling me it will be ok either way...which ofcourse it will. And I broke down and told my dd i was nervous although I didn't explain all the details to her. I fely like I owed heer some explanation since i've been so out of it the past few days.

I'm going to try to wait a couple more days to test but will probably again tomorrow!

Well, I'm 13 or 14dpo now and have tested every day since Monday and they are all negative. I really feel like I'm not pregnant now. I've been pretty upset the past couple of days.
I'm especially angry at the 1st response test. How could I not be? It just feels so wrong to be told one thing and have it not be true. At any rate, I think I've come to terms w/everything now. My dh and I have never had any problems getting pregnant (in fact we'vehad appregnancy while on the pill) so I feel a little stunned that i'm NOT pregnant. However, some things honestly didn't feel right this time around. I think I knew even from the 1st day of that posiitve that I may not be...I wish I would have listened to my instincts a little more. But, lesson learned. Also, March could be a great month for a baby. If anything changes I'll post again...if not good luck to everyone it's been fun hanging out and I really appreciate the support. Maybe I'll drop in later...

It's offical I'm not pregnant. : At least I know now. It really is a relief to just know. I'm just going to be thankful for my 3 who are here and be positive. It was, after all, our first attempt. I've just never not been pregnant when I tried. That is hard. Thanks again for everyones support. Please spread the word the First Response Gold Digitals are NOT the way to go! I will never use any of their products and I will be letting them know about the false positive.

Good luck Feb mamas! Hope everyone has agreat 9 months!

Are you sure it wasn't a chemical pregnancy?

I don't know much about chemical pregs. But my understanding is that another preg test would have picked up on it and read a positive. With 4 other brands incl. another brand of digital were all negative...doesn't this mean that I was never preg?

If you tested with all of those other brands on the SAME sample of urine...well then, you still couldn't be certain. It does seem weird, but some tests are SO sensitive that they just pick up on a tiny bit of HCG in the system. False positives are truly rare...but they can happen, as stated in their literature that comes with every test. So it's hard to say. It could have been that you were one of them who got a bum test...or that you had a very early pregnancy that wasn't viable and the HCG amount was small but left your system before another test could pick it up.

(((hugs, mama))) and good luck.
