    pregnancy test help

    i know there are so many tests out there, i have used Confirm with BFN and two months ago i got a faint second line with fortel. Which brand i can count on? Last month AF was very heavy and clotty. This month is was spotting a brown discharge for three days. My breasts are sore and i feel a bit queasy. Could i be pg and just not have high enough levels for testing yet? With ds I found out i was pg at 8 weeks. i don't know what to think

    If you think you could be pg then take a test. Can't recommend a brand of HPT as I can't remember what ones I've used. If you are concerned about false results then go to your gp & have a test done there. Good luck.

    I have used Confirm and Crystal Clear, I have found them to be good.

    I think Foretel Ultra has a bad rep, not sure about Foretel Extra. Girls here speak highly of Lullaby Conceptions, which is sold online.

    Good luck!

    i wonder if hormones can play a big part and confuse all the signs and symptoms.
    I was off yasmin for two months. I just started it again whern i started spotting the other day, is it possible becuase i started the pill again that all my symptoms and spotting can be just from the hormones?

    I currently have had spotting for three days, cramping, sore boobs, dizziness and a bit of nauseous. Is it mental seeing i am getting BFN?

    thanks for listening

    HI nicrach
    it depends how many dpo you are as to whether you'll get a good result on the tests although like you and so many others some women just wont get a +ve on a hpt until they are further along. I think it has something to do with the bodys metabolism. Go to your dr for a bt. Good luck and keep us posted.

    AF was due last thursday. i might wait until the end of the week (even though its going to kill me) to make sure i get a correct result. Is there any other reason why my boobs hurt just sitting here?
