This morning's digital test

Still says pregnant.  I peed on a new digital this morning and it also says pregnant.  Why would my tests say pregnant, but the dr's test say negative?

I'm doing good.  Staying busy so I don't think about it.  I'm still really nervous.  I can't decide if I still "feel" pregnant or not.  I want to believe the dr. but at the same time, I think he's crazy.  I want to drink a whole bottle of wine right now, but I'm abstaining.  If I get bad news tomorrow though, I will leave work early, come home and get plastered!  Just for the heck of it!

Sorry about the headaches...I didn't really have any from the Clomid, just hot flashes and night sweats.

I wish I could cut my hair short but I don't have the face for it.  My dh would kill me too...he loves long hair.

I love my haircut!  It's like Jenny McCarthy's is now.  Short in the back and angles down towards the front.  Kind of like Victoria Beckham, but not as short.

Thanks ladies...I'm just hanging in there until Monday.  I'm going today to get my hair drastically cut!  I need a change!  Maybe that will help keep my mind off of it all!

My dr said her office tests can vary up to 200!!!!! They don't want to even see most women who are pg until at least 8wks. By 8wks if it doesn't show on a pee test there is a definite problem.

Don't let it stress you. It is probably just a high calibrated test or someone looked at it wrong. There have been two posters that they told were neg then redid the tests to find out was pos!!!!

The Dr.'s tests work just like the dollar ones for me, THey SUCK, sorry had to say that. The digital says you're pregnant, try not to worry until Monday :) I heard the Dr's is not that sensitive because they don't see you until later and they really want to make sure you're preggo. Sometimes w/the low sensitivity ones they detect pregnancy soo soon that it could be short lived or chemical.

Seems like you do hear this happening.  Kellym was worried about just that when she went to her ob for testing.  I told her to take a FRER with her to have the OB nurse dip in the same urine as theirs.  I have not been following your story, but maybe you were early in your PG and your test was a 25 sensitivity and the OB used a 100 sensitivity or something?  Just a thought...

Good luck,
Lor
