Reply With QuoteIt is possible to get a false negative, but not a false positive. I would say if you have had 4x +ve HPT and still no AF you are def PG.

What do you think??
Please give me your thoughts on this....
I've done 4 HPT. Two different brands, all positive.
Went to the dr today and did a urine test there and it was negative!
Also had a blood test, get the results on Friday. What do you think?? Can 4 positive HPT be wrong??
Please help before I go crazy!!!!

With my DD1 I had I think 3 positive HPT's, went to the doctor and did a urine test, it was negative, I was told no sorry no chance you are pregnant (we were activly trying), kept doing HPT's, kept getting positives, yep I was pregnant.
I have been told that the tests they use at surgerys are 25miu were the early responce HPT's are 10miu, therefore more sensitive.
I quietly think congratulations are in order.
Ohh and that seems a long time to wait for the blood test results, I had mine (this pregnancy) within 4 hours! I would be bugging them tomorrow, but thats just me.
