False Negative

I had a home pregnancy test, one was a first responce & then I took a digital. Both came out positive! But then I went to Rachels House yesterday and they said they're test was negative. So I retook another clear blue digital pregnancy test. It came back positive 1-2 weeks, like the other one did.... Why did the doctors show up negative? Am I pregnant?

I think youre are indeed pregnant. The problem with what you did is, you did the test too early. The HCG or the hormone that determines whether youre pregnant is not yet prominent in your bloodstream or urine.

You are pregant.  Dr's office uses a very very less sensitive test to cover there butt that's why when they give you a negative results, the bottom will say you may still be pregnant but it might be too early to test.  

If you ask them for a blood test then the lab results definitely will say positive.  Congrats!

I do believe you are most likely pregnant.  I'd give it a few more weeks and go back in for another test.

My doc even asked me when I took my test there are you sure you are did u take asked test.they actually told me it was negative till they waited a few more min.  Then it started to turn a very very light pink. I think ur prolly just really early.

Most likely your pregnant especially if you took 3 and they said positive. You are just really early that's why the Drs said negative. I would wait two weeks and go back to the dr.

So you think I am & it's just that the doctors pregnacy test isn't as strong?

Mine was very very light at the doc. It's just really early. I went in at 4-5 weeks and it took awhile for it to show I was pregnant.
