Ok So I've gone from the shock and excitement of the 2 lines to utter paranoid state of mind! I took 4 tests---2 answers or frer I forget which, 1 ept, and one dollar store test.

1 answer done Sunday around noon, 1 ept done sunday at around 11:30pm, 1 answer done the next morning (all DARK) then I grabbed a $$ store test and used it late at night on Monday night (round midnight)---granted I was drinking AND peeing A LOT and it was bfp but a lot lighter than I expected and I've been paranoid ever since!

I know I go tomorrow to get the blood tests results, they would have had the first set by now. Surely if the levels were off the first time they would have called me....right? I'm just sooooo paranoid that either:

A: The 4 tests were ALL false positives.

B: I have a cyst that is causing a false positive though I don't even know if that is possible.

C: An impending m/c.

I'm a wreck over here!

That's normal for dollar store tests. You're likely fine.

ALL my Dollar Store tests were lighter BFPs then my Answer ones. I remember the feelings of early pregnancy and I hope you can *try* to not stress too much hun

thanks....I'm feeling a bit queasy now so I'm feeling better....in an odd way lol

I just had some really bad cramping the last few nights but I think it was just (blushing) gas or something I ate.

No spotting or anything, I'm my own worst worrier!

Poor Missy. I absolutely hate the first few weeks of pregnancy because of the mind tricks we play on ourselves. I hope you can get through the next few days with a minimum of worry!

I hated those first few weeks, I was so worried all the time. If I woke up not feeling sick I'd go buy a pregnancy test and take it to make sure it was still positive. I think I have been worried until around 16 weeks, when we heard the heartbeat on doppler, and I started feeling her moving.

All very normal feelings I felt that way all the way until my first u/s at 10 weeks!

The dollar store tests SUCK! I got a clear BFP on a FRER at 11dpo. I used a dollar store test at 12dpo and it was a BFN. No line! They really aren't nearly as sensitive as the other tests, so it makes sense that it was light!

I sure wish I had known that about the dollar store tests beforehand LOL! I'm feeling less paranoid now. I drank more and started peeing again then I ate dinner and yep....queasy came back. That and my moods have been crazy----or so I'm told ever so gently by dbf
