False Positive Pregnancy test

[Chloecols2205]

Hi all, need some advice.

I missed my period in March, I have never missed a period in 10 years. So thought this was odd, I took 3 pregnancy tests on the week of my missing period. And one on the 25/03/22 all negative, then today (16/04/22) I got a positive test (digital clear blue one). I rushed out to buy some more only to take 4 tests (2 cheap ones and 2 clear blue that give you an idea of the weeks) all came back negative.

I havent really had any symptoms, lower back has ached a little, some nausea but that could have been down to anxiety and a slight cramping in stomach.

I am really confused, am I pregnant? What do I do now? Advice would be greatly appreciated

Do a good one first thing tomorrow morning

When in March missed?

False positives are unusual in pregnancy tests. In your position, I'd go to the GP and ask for a blood test to confirm either way.

Try tomorrow morning

Should have started 19/03

So approaching 4 weeks after missed period?

I’d say given the 4 negative today that you’re not pregnant

Even though Ive had my positive one today?

Period late by almost a month?
If that's right any test should come up positive if pregnant. I would retest in the morning. If negative and period still doesn't turn up go to GP for further tests. If positive refer yourself to the midwife team.

See a doctor. That is your only option, other than waiting and seeing. No-one on here can tell you if you're pregnant.

Did the line on the positive test show up straight away? It could be an evap line?

Definitely speak to your GP.

Could be a chemical pregnancy, I've experienced this with a mixture of positive and negative tests then period came late and heavy and then negative

it was a digital test

I think it would be very unlikely to get a false positive on digital test but then to have four negative tests afterwards is strange. Agreed you should call the GP. Although most practises won’t do routine pregnancy testing, I think the fact that you would be 8 weeks (??) pregnant potentially it is worth checking. Good luck x

I’d repeat it using a pink dye test - I’ve had false positive with clear blue previously. Unless it’s more sensitive than the other ones you used. HCG levels generally double every 48 hours so maybe wait 2 more days to repeat

Hey ladies, please can you offer me advice as my brain is scrambled!

I have 2 DD and we are trying for our third baby. I had a miscarriage last October and didn’t expect to feel as sad as I did but I’m getting to terms with it now. Anyway, I took 3 pregnancy tests this morning all which were positive so then bought a clear blue digital for the number of weeks. However it said not pregnant. Could I have had 3 false positive tests or am I actually pregnant? Thank you!
