Ok so two nights ago I did I clear blue 3 days before my period is due because I felt so run down and it was positive did another the next day and positive again. Had a test done yesterday at the doctors told today it was negative but just did another clear blue and it says 1-2 weeks. Receptionist in doctors was so nice told me come back Monday test again and said the home tests are more sensitive. I have crazy anxiety I keep checking to see if iv started bleeding thankfully iv not. Iv slight back pain also. Has this happened to anyone before and the pregnancy was ok. It wasn’t planned but very much wanted

Not happened to me but assuming that the doctors test was not FMU either? If so that early with a less sensitive test it's totally possible your levels just aren't high enough yet

It's natural for this to trigger all sorts of emotions, including your anxiety, so just to put your mind at rest - you can trust the tests you've done at home because they say there's no such thing as a false positive and also the receptionist has said themselves that the home tests are more accurate (sensitive).

Definitely go in on Monday to put your mind at rest, but use this experience to notice your anxiety and to work on what helps you to manage it - getting out in nature, reading, breathwork etc.

A lot of doctors don’t even test. They just accept the at home results. There is not much to be done at this point except wait.
