    I haven't actually taken any further home pregnancy tests. I thought it best at the time to wait on the blood test results and my doctor never gave me the details on the HCG levels. I wasn't aware they give you any of that information. I'm new to any of this...

    I wish I could feel more positive but unfortunately I don't see the next blood results coming back with the answer I want.

    I know hun They do give it to you if you ask for it, but alot of ppl don't know to ask for it. I think you have to have a hcg level over 20 to confirm pg- thats what iv'e been told. What pg tests did you use? Huge hun, it is so hard

    The HPT's I took were a First Response, Confirm and the new Clearblue digital test with conception indicator. The digital test said I was pregnant at 1-2 weeks which by the booklet says a doctor will most likely diagnose you as 3-4 weeks but I think it would just pick up the smallest HCG in my hormones.

    This whole process is just frustrating! I was so naive to think that it would be easy but it's quietly driving me crazy!

    TTC (trying to conceive) can drive you crazy, and then you get a BFP (Big fat positive) and you think it will all be good, but then you get a different sort of crazy, especially if you have bleeding or have had a loss. Have you had a look at some of the other threads? There are TTC threads, and Belly buddy threads, you can get support from other women going thru their own crazy times too.

    Thanks HotI

    I've read through a lot of other women's threads. It boggles your mind with all the different problems that us women go through and how many are actually having scares. If my results come back positive or even if they don't and in the future when I do fall pregnant with a health baby (hopefully!) I will be treating my body with a lot more respect. I want to give us the best possible chance of having a healthy bub and fingers crossed it happens sooner rather than later. I'm already taken multivitamins so that my body begins to absorb all of the nutrients required for a healthy pregnancy.

    My DH has suggested that I take another HPT to put my mind at ease for the time being but I think I might just wait until tomorrow morning for the results from my doctor. Taking another HPT isn't going to change whether I am pg or not at the end of the day and if it is a BFN it will probably just take away this clear mindset that I'm slowly starting to create for myself.

    This forum has definitely given me a whole new perspective on the situation.
