I have had 2 positive HPT, today I went to the doctor to confirm the pregnancy and the test results there were negative. My husband and I are in shock, we were sure that we were pregnant. The doctor did a blood test and we will get the results by the end of the week. About 2 hours after my doctors appointment I took another HPT and it too was positive, could the docotor's office have made a mistake or could I have had 3 false positives?

Oh wow. I would definately be questioning the results from the dr office. Sounds like they made a mistake in testing. I would also ask about why the blood test takes so long. I had a blood test done with my first child and I had the results 4 hours later. Sounds like something is up. I would call back to the dr tomorrow and explain that you have taken another hpt and had positive results and wonder if you can either get the blood results immediately or if you can come back in and take another in office test. If you do take another in the office I would make sure that the cup you use is labeled with your name and I would physically hand it to the nurse. Maybe there was an accidental cup switch?? Anyway, I would definately not disregard 3 hpt that were positive. There is very little false positives with them. Sounds more like something messed up at the dr. GOOD LUCK!!!!

Yes, make sure they get the right cup. THis past saturday I was given the urine test and the doctor came in and tried to tell me that my test was negative but my urine cup was still sitting on the counter in the room I was in.

Gotta watch those guys!

good Luck

a friend of mine went through the same thing....the doctors office said they were absolutly sure she wasn't pregnant. guess what! she was very much pregnant....the HPT was more accurate than the doctors office that time....good luck to you!

dont worry im sure u r pregnant exactly the same thing happenend with me when i was pregnant(though it doesnt matter as i had a very early miscarriage in just 3 weeks)ne ways they did urine test and called up on phone that im negative and that i should go for blood test to confirm or to be more accurate.but me and my husband were sure that time that i was pg cuz we already did 3 hpts all of them were +.but as the doc said to be more accurate we did the reports came the other day with hcg reading 50 confirming that pregnancy.guess they do that for grabbing more money lol.thats what we thought.neways wish u all the beSt may u have a very healthy pregnancy.do inform us when u get the result.
