*~Tina~* Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Nope :) The EPT digital ones that read "pregnant" or "not pregnant" have always been accurate for me.

Once Again Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 I had a false positive with the walgreen's brand. I know it was a false positive, because right after I took it, I went to my OB's office and got a quantitative HCG blood test. My HCG was no where close to the pregnancy level.

Parrothead Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 As with anything man made there is the possibility for error. But this type of error is very rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Wife Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Possibly. I had something one time that was either a chemical pregnancy or a false positive. Got mixed results on different brands and then a negative the following day. My "guest" visited shortly thereafter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mama2cntrykids Posted September 23, 2010 Author Share Posted September 23, 2010 Well, I think another test is in order. That should be coming by this evening ;). Emotions are rather fluxing at this point, more towards the side of oh no. Probably not the best emotion to have, but it is what it is right now.

happyhomemaker25 Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 You could take six different ones and lay them all out on the counter and stare at them for awhile.. that's what my friend did. I just took one drank three bottle of water and took another and then sat on the bathroom floor and sobbed because I'd never seen the positive before...

I'm told I looked like a truck ran over me when we found out ds was on the way. Now, I say that God knew what I wanted/needed better than I did.

The part that this child is *truly* a gift from God. All day I've been dwelling on the what are we going to do part. Obviously have a baby, but I seriously thought we were d.o.n.e. God has other plans. Yep, they're all gifts from God but there's something extra-special about the surprise ones ;). I found out I was having a surprise when child #5 was 5 months old (and my oldest was 7; this was after a history of infertility, but that's a long story). At 41 y.o., I was ambivalent, to say the least. I wanted sleep, I wanted my body back, and I was so darn tired of buckling carseats, among other things. But, like you said, God has other plans. Fantastic ones, as it turns out. My surprise is the sweetest baby ever, and I have to give glory to God every time I kiss her toes. As for what you are going to do? First concern of my DH was to buy a new car (we needed another seat). Beyond that we take it one day at a time. I remember getting that positive test - I just didn't feel right. I had just weaned ds. I stopped by the grocery. When it was positive, I kept looking at it as if I couldn't figure out what it meant (funny considering I have done literally hundreds of HPTs in my life). Many congratulations and best wishes for a healthy pregnancy :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like... ...you're going to have a baby! Woohoo! I know it is a little shocking right now, but babies are cute and smell really good. And the surprises are really the best, most entertaining little buggers. Take a deep breath and enjoy. Since you cannot celebrate with a beverage, I shall do that for you;).

Crimson Wife Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: I found out I was pregnant with our oldest 2 weeks after DH got accepted to grad school. We very much wanted children someday but the timing could've been better. The first few years were tough financially and I wasn't able to stay home with her like I would've ideally preferred. But it all turned out okay in the end. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktgrok Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 As someone that has been surprised, it does work out. When I took the test with my oldest it came up positive right away. I waited the full time anyway, thinking maybe the line would go away. It didnt. I sat on the floor and cried. And cried. And cried. I kept saying "it's not supposed to be this way." But he is an amazing gift, and I'm so glad he is here. It turns out my grandmother developed alzheimers shortly after his birth, if I hadn't had him when I did she never would have gotten to know a great grandchild. I've always felt God timed his birth for a reason. Hugs, and don't worry, when he/she gets here you will be estatic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, I already couldn't imagine our lives without Little Bean and there's still about 10 weeks left before we meet him or her.

I mean, my youngest is four and my dh did NOT want anymore. He also wasn't preventing so...hmmm:lol:. Since we haven't been very careful over the past four years and haven't gotten pregnant, I thought it wasn't going to happen. Boy, was I wrong!! Surprise!
