did you ever get a neg with one brand of preg test and then suddenly get a pos with a different brand?

I did a post last week asking anyone had a negative pregnancy test but were really pregnant - seems a lot!

I did two clearblue digital that were negative and then a normal clearblue one that was positive and now confirmed by the doc - hence I am now part of the due in Jan 06 thread - but as dd was 9 days late will probably be in the Feb 06 postnatal group.

I did 4 tests with dd - as I couldn't believe that I was pregnant - all positive and made no difference if they were supermarket own brands or a 'named' brand.

I think the general guidance is that a negative result can be wrong but a positive result is basically that - so if you have a positive result then join the Jan/Feb 06 threads.

well monday I was bouncing about I was sooooo excited! tuesday I was normal (disbelief I think) weds I was worrying as a BFN, also crying and feelin generally hormonal and today stressed! have a v sore back and all other mannor of aches and pains. still little beanie seems to be listening to it's mummy and staying put! i'll be happier once we have confirmation from the DR thou I think.

DH - we'll wait till sat and test together what do u say?

if you have a positive u have to be pregnant as there is a hormone in your wee if you were not pregnant you could not possibly get a positive.

oh you must be munz - I think a positive is a positive is a positive! I don't think you can get false positives. Congrats! How do you feel?

I still have no AF. All very odd. Not sure if I'm 1, 2 or 3 days late! Not sure I can bear to do another test today (CB was neg yesterday) maybe I should wait until tomorrow?

same here hon, I tested now 4 times, (3 with the cheapo ones from ebay) - 2 BFP's and one BFN (not even an evap line) and last night tried a CB test which was also a BFN - so what's a girl to think?

jessicasmummy · 01/06/2005 17:14

desperatehousewife · 01/06/2005 17:13
