update to "light positive at 6 weeks"

I'm still waiting on the bloodwork done yesterday. (Yesterday morning I got a light positive on the HPT. It was within two mins of peeing on it and it was pink, so it's not an evap line. I would have conceived Jan. 26 and i've been spotting.)


This morning I took another HPT and it was negative. So now I'm thinking that I'm one of the REALLY REALLY REALLY rare people that gets a false positive?


I've been pregnant two other times, one ended in healthy baby. So I've taken plenty of HPTs, I know how rare false positives are. I know how to take a HPT, I'm not crazy! But these tests are making me feel this way. I was on the pill and we weren't TTC but I'd like to know one way or the other. I'm thinking that I must not be, because then why would it be negative? It's not like I'm testing early, I should be over 6 weeks now if I am pregnant.


Argh. I wish blood tests were faster!

Did you read the posts about the $ Tree lot of tests that were giving false positives?

Hey, thanks for the info. Isn't that weird? I thought false positives were supposed to be super rare? I guess not anymore.


Mine was First Response early detection test. I've always had great luck with them. This is so weird. I highly doubt that today's would be a false negative because at this point, i should be getting positives, if I am truly pregnant with a healthy pregnancy.


I just called the doctor's office and of course, got their voicemail. Argh!

All I can say on the dollar tests is I've used boxes of them and never had a hint of a +.

I've never gotten a false positive either, thank goodness, though my chemical pg was pretty misleading.
