Very scared....tested on 9dpo and got a BFP...what are the chances of a false positive?

[sammysam]

I'm so scared
I tested (have never taested early before-or late for that matter as have always been on time) but have felt strange-even with a monster cold-sore, bigger boobs, very tired, peeing more. I used a digital test with conception monitor-used it correctly and it said pregnant 1-2weeks (at 6am yesterday morning)
I'm just so paranoid that i'm not-we have been trying for almost a year now. I have a dd who is nearly 2 and a half but she was unplanned and I didn't know til i was about 6-8wks so didn't have to go through all this.
I don't know if it is because i'm so aware but i've been feeling weird-light cramps and kind of heavy. I know all I have to do is just wait and see but I so what this to be it-and result in a healthy happy baby.

I was going to wait to test on tues (when fertility friend had told me to) but think I might test again in the morning-should I? Or not?
God this is nasty I just want to be but don't dare tempt fate

Er you are pregnant you wally.

Congrats.

You're pregnant! Congrats.

False positives are very rare, but when you test early there's always the risk that the embryo won't implant. It most probably will though. But, in any case you now know for sure that you CAN conceive, so congratulations

There is no point in re-testing in the morning, it would be best to wait a couple of days if you can manage it. TBH positive is positive.

I would say you're pregnant.....try and relax

Hurray!

I think they occasionally do a negative instead of a postive but not the other way round

It feels weird [paranoid smiley]
I just did a search on here about chemical pregnacies and have scared myself to death
why the hell did i test early? Such a stupid fool.
Are chemu=ical pregnacies rare? They look not from the search...

Do NOT search on here. Do NOT Google. I'm sorry if my post upset you, that truly wasn't my intention.

I've detected two chemical pregnancies, one in the cycle before DD was conceived and one in the cycle before DC2 was conceived (am 20 weeks).

No they are very common. Most women just think they are having a late period. But because you got a positive so early on it would suggest your levels are high which is a good sign!

Congrats. It is early but it's more than likely you ovulated earlier than ff says. I got my bfp (who's now a 20wo DS) on what ff thought was 10dpo. Turns out it was 13 dpo once we did the dating scan. Good luck.

I ovulate quite late and have only 10-11days LP. 11dpo tomorrow. I have loads of symptoms but its the cramping feeling thats worrying me.
Nork-you haven't upset me-I asked the question! Can I ask when you detected them? Was it early?
Damn it-I really want these next days to pass very quietly and definately without af!!!!!! Ppppllllleeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaasssssseeeeeeee!
I really hope it is a real and healthy BFP. Touch wood.

good luck, sammysam, I have my fingers crossed x

Thank you katster-I really hope I'm just paranoid but I just have a weird bad feeling.Or maybe I'm just being over cautious. I'm hoping the sensations are wind related (sorry if tmi!) but i've been windy the last few days and also had my mums roast with chestnut stuffing today-which always makes for an interesting evening iynwim?!!!!

I think i'm also finding it hard to believe as i'm so ill with this cold-i'm not making the best home at the mo!!!

Would implantation have already occured? How long does it take?

God-not going to sleep again tonight

Was early both times, my period was on time the first time and one day late the second time.

Good luck, am keeping my fingers crossed!

Norktastic-Did you test early with your dc?
I really wish i'd just waited....
I'm such a scaredy cat though if this is the real thing i'll prob be like this till the 12wk scan I was quite bad with dd but at least I only had a couple of weeks for it to build up!!!!
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx please be a sicky one xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I found out v.early with DS2 - like you very very strong symptoms. When I tested, the test initially came up negative. Was really shocked as I could have sworn I was pg. Then after a few minutes it turned positive. I must have ovulated late and tested early. I thought I was 11wks pg when I had an early scan, and turned out to only be 9.5wks.

Anyway, you've got a positive, so just sit back and relax, and hopefully everything will be fine.

Thank you FourArms. Lets hope i'm the same

norktastic just a quick one-when they were false did you have any symptoms or not? I just so want it to be a real sticky one-i'm just so paranoid it won't I actualy am crazy
I have several symptoms now. Resisted the very very strong urge to test this morning so now can't really test til the morning anyway...........

The first time I was convinced that I was pregnant but I didn't really have any symptoms, it was just because we'd been TTC for ages. I was convinced most months...

The second time I had stupidly strong symptoms, much stronger than with either real pregnancy. I was BF at the time so maybe that had something to do with it.

Both times I was actually pregnant I tested a day or two after my period was due, this time the result was very faint for the first week or two.

Whatever happens this is a real positive and that really is a Good Thing, it shows without a doubt that you can conceive. It's thought that chemical pregnancy are caused because the embryo is badly faulty and wasn't capable of developing far. A CP is infinitely preferable to an early MC in my mind.

Please try no to worry too much (she says, asking the impossible) the chances are that all will be well. I really never should have said anything, all will most likely be well.

I'll be thinking of you
