Question about HPT....

I used EPT on Wednesday and got a faint positive. Then Thursday I used another one and got nothing--BFN. Used another one today and got another positive. Why would yesterday's test have been negative? Also, blood tests yesterday showed that my hcg was 16. If EPT registers at 40, why would I have gotten a positive at all with only 16? Please clarify this for me. Thanks much!!

Same here! I did First Response got a faint positive last Saturday. The next day negative. Then Monday a darker positive, then Tuesday negative.

I'm just going to wait for my AF to show up or not show up and then go to the OB for a blood test.

I've been asking people the same questions and have zero idea what this is. If you figure it out let me know please!

I'm not sure of hte answer but it could be that the HCG was more concentrated when you took one test than the other.. just a thought. like if you used FMU versus afternoon or evening...

good luck.

i have had 5 BFNs so I think a line is a line which = a BFP!! Congrats!

I went and had a blood and urine test at the ob's and it was a BFN. After 3 BFP's. This is crappy to say the least. Next month I hope!
