I took a digital pregnancy test 1 day before my missed period and it was negative. I took another 1 day past my missed period and it was positive. Has anyone else experienced this? Should I be concerned that I have low Hcg levels or can this be normal? I also have less symptoms than I did with my first pregnancy which is concerning me.
I read that the pregnancy test I use is 95% accurate the day before your missed period so i thought it was odd it would be negative and then be positive 2 days later?
I’m not a doctor, so this doesn’t constitue medical advice, but here’s what I would do: if you can, go get the First Response Early Response test. Usually you can find FRER boxes that come with x2 tests in one box. Take one first thing tomorrow morning. Then, re-test in a few days (ideally 5 days later, but I know it can be super hard to wait that long…try for at least 3). If it’s still unclear, and you haven’t had your period, call your doctor’s office to request a blood test. Good luck!
