Ok one of my good friends jen is having
some problems....She's been having
protected sex(condom) for about 3-4 weeks
now...Over the past week she's been
feeling really nauseous...Although she
started her period on tuesday the 20th, it
only lasted until the 21st....Which is
weird because her periods are usually 3-4
days long....She went and got 2 hpts last
night, took one of them last night, and
there were 2 lines(meaning shes preg) but
the one line was really faint....Then this
morning she took another, but nothing
showed up....Which is it? Is she pregnant
or not?
Any input would be appreciated, she's
freaking out not knowing!
Much love,
vanessa

Well then lady, I think that you friend
should go to the doctor. If you are
getting to different readings on tests
then there is no sure way, unless of
course you just have your friend go and
buy a new test. Whichever you friends
chcooses to do, make sure that you keep us
updated. I still think that you friend
shoul go to the doctor though!!\

2 lines means that hcg was found in her
body meaning that she is preg, faint or
not. Now did any line show up on the test
this morning or was it an invalid test?

Nothing showed up on the test this
morning...Maybe the test she took this
morning was somewhat defective and didnt
show the low hcg levels(other line from
last night was extremely faint she
said).....She also said that last night
she took the test, but none of the lines
showed up, like the line thats supposed to
show up to show that the test is working,
so she didnt wait the 3 mins and put the
test in her drawer thinking it was
defective...She woke up this morning and
theres def a faint line in the circle that
shows ur pregnant....But the test this
morning showed nothing....If this makes a
difference, the line that shows the test
is working is a lot lighter this morning
then last night...So maybe that affected
the results somehow?

I mean it doesn't make sense for the line
to be there indicating she's pregnant if
she's really not, no matter how much time
passed after she looked at it...Wouldn't
it most likely be the other way
around...Showing no lines when u really
are indeed pregnant?

Well is sounds as though the tests are
either expired or just a bad brand, so I
would go get a new brand, clear blue
digital or ept, and try it again in the
am! I am sorry I can't help more vanessa,
good luck though!

From what ive heard.. U cant get the 2nd
line unless u are in fact pregnant..So
sounds to me that she is.. She should
just go to the doc to get the blood test
tho for sure.

It's okay! Both tests she took were
ept...So I guess she'll have to get clear
blue or something else....We were thinking
about taking her to the clinic on monday
to get a blood test done, cuz hpts add up
man! $20 bucks a pop! Lol it's insane...

Kari,
i'm thinking that her hcg levels aren't
strong enough yet for it to show up on
every single hpt....So maybe that's why
the 2nd test she took didn't show
anything...Just a thought

When that happened to me, I went to the
doctor and they requested I get a blood
test which the results come in the next
day.
It might be a little early for the hcg but
I heard that the best time to take a
pregnancy test is in the morning since
thats when the hcg is so high.. Not sure
but I think I read that somewheres? Lol!

Ok some updates...She took a first
response test about an hour ago and it
came out negative....She's still stuck on
that positive hpt so she went out and
bought 3 clear blue tests...She's going to
take one tonight and then save the other 2
for next week...She's freaking out over
this, I feel so bad because i've been
there and don't know what to do for her!
It's honestly just a matter of waiting it
out now...

Jennifer,
did you have to pay for the blood test @
pph? I just called another local
clinic(the one I went to is closed due to
remodeling or somethin lol) and she said
that they dont do preg tests....And she
doesnt know of any free places to get it
done...She said you have to pay at planned
parenthood..But I thought it was free...I
dont know, guess since ive never gone
before..
