Confusing pregnancy test! Help!

[Ash2492]

Confusing pregnancy test! It said positive for at least 30 seconds then it changed to negative! I'll test again tomorrow. But has this happened to anyone before? Any advice? Thanks

hmmm, how strange. Was it a digital? That's so weird.

Pee into a pot, dip and walk away. It will only be positive after the allotted time - usually 3 minutes. Do not take any result before that to be true. If it's truly positive then it would stay positive. Sorry!! X

[Ash2492]

It was just a first response one. I know strange isn't it!

[Ash2492]

I just told my friend about it and she said she had the exact same with her eldest, I just don't know what to think x

@Ash2492 that's weird! Another test?

[Ash2492]

I plan to tomorrow! Keep fingers crossed for me :) but yeah, 'tis rather odd.

[boowaitingforbaby]

@Ash2492 you've got more patience than me 😂 I'd be at Asda now getting another test! Good luck! Everything crossed for you

this happened to me once. cant remember the brand. i didnt want to be pregnant saw the bfp bawled my eyes out then it went negative. i wasnt pregnant.

Are you able to post a pic? it might be that the line is super faint but still positive maybe.

[Ash2492]

@boowaitingforbaby there's been so many times I've almost gone to Asda and got one! But then I thought, might be best to wait a few days! Thanks Hun

@dowhatyouwish I put my phone flash light up against it and still didn't see anything. I've chucked it now, this happened friday just gone. I was going to take a picture when it happened but I was in shock that it was positive, then by the time
I processed it the line had gone!

[MouseLove]

So the line appeared AFTER the 3 mins or before??

[Ash2492]

Before

[Sluttybartfast]

Generally a positive sticks around. I think it's most likely that a line "appeared" temporarily purely in the process of the urine/dye moving up the test and it's actually negative.

[Ash2492]

@sluttybartfast I was hoping that wasn't the case :(

[MouseLove]

If it appeared before the 3 mins then it was never a positive. Sorry! That's why they say give it 3 mins. You need to wait for the result. Your urine will travel up and across the test area and the lines can turn all different shades just like an OPK. I'm sorry you were confused.

Sorry OP but it sounds like dye running down the test as it processes. Maybe try again in a few days? Good luck.
