Pregnancy Test came up positive!

Hello! I'm new to the board, but can't share with anyone in RL yet so I came here.. Hope you guys don't mind.

I didn't get AF this morning like I normally do so I took a pregnancy test.. It came up POSITIVE!! Holy crap! I've been feeling so weird the last couple of weeks and then I had a yeast infection so I had no idea what was going on.. I'm a little worried about the medication the doctor prescribed me last week when I had the yeast infection.. Apparently your not supposed to take it when your pregnant, but I didn't know! I looked it up online and it says it can cause birth defects when taken early in the pregnancy. I'm going to call the doctor this morning to come in for a test to be 100% sure, but those home pregnancy tests are fairly accurate aren't they? It was the clear blue digital test. What can I expect at the dr's office? Do they take a blood test? Do an exam? Any info would be helpful, this is all new to me..

Amazingly enough when I told DBF, he was very calm.. I was the only one freaking out. Course I did wake him out of a sound sleep at 5:30 in the morning to tell him.

Congratulations. I am waiting to test, I'm 13 days past ovulation date and I should have started my period yeterday (or maybe today). I'm having mild craming and cm this morning.

If I am pregnant, I am going to be SO stressed b/c I have not done everything right. I have been drinking caffeine, I took imitrex migraine med last week. UGH. Let me know what your dr says.

Well, I went in and they tested my urine and they got a negative! She said that it might be because its so early and it wasn't the first morning's pee. She was surprised to hear that I had gotten a positive on the home pregnancy test, so who knows.. She wants me to come back on Monday with my first morning's pee if I don't get my period before then..

How many home pregnancy tests do you think i'll take before then??? I'm not quite sure how to feel at this point..

Were you having any pregnancy symptoms? How late is your period? It is odd that a hpt showed positive and the other negative with the dr. Let me know what happens! Are you going to try another hpt?

I've actually been having alot of symptoms.. i think.. I didn't know for sure cause sometimes I feel the same way before I get my period.. My breasts have been sore, I'm tired, strange discharge, back is sore, had a sore throat for two weeks that I couldn't get rid of.. Odd cramping, you name it.. I've had it.. The only thing I haven't been is nauseus (sp?).... And yes, the nurse seem surprised that I had gotten a positive on the HPT but not at the doctors office... I think i'm going to go to the store tonight and buy a different test and retest in the morning.. She wants me to try to wait till Monday and then bring in my first morning pee and get retested..

Hi,
That is really weird it came up pos., and then neg. I've always been the opposite, no matter what time i took the HPT, but when i went to the dr. it was positive, which were right.
Have u had the i 'gotta go pee-again', feelings? For me that was the most tell-tale sign.

Good luck, i hope everything goes well, let us know how things go...
