Preggo Tests
Posted: 11-27-04 17:56pm

Well I took a hpt this morning, and i'm confused about the results...The instructions picture showed that there would be a vertical line in the result window if it was positive, but when I did it, I saw a light, but definitely visable horizontal line....What does that mean? Any ideas anyone?

I would take another one in a day or two, in the morning of course and see what it says then. I've heard of the lines being faint and im not sure what that means.

So it has to be a vertical line to be positive then? I think i'm gonna take another one tomorrow morning, but maybe I should just wait a week or so... I don't want to get another one like that and still be confused...Maybe I could get better results in a week or so...

Yes! I would imagine that you would get a positive by now.

Some ppl dont, you could go to the doc and get a blood test. I was lucky, mine showed a big fat positive, I took mine when I was 4 weeks.

Yeah but dont judge by that. Everyone is completely diff.... The only hereditary thing thats pregnancy related is stretch marks. So theres still a good chance youre not preggy

It is rare for somone to not get a positive so long into their pregnancy. But everyone is different. Good luck either way!
