BFN after BFP?

I did 3 ic hpt's on Saturday  (including one at the walk-in doctor) which all showed faint positives. Yesterday I did  a FRER and it was darker and still positive. I was at the dollar store today so I threw a PG test into my bag and it was a bfn. Part of me is just dismissing it as a false negative but part of me wants to go buy another test just to make sure. I do have a doctor's appointment on Thursday to verify my pregnancy.

Has anyone else had this happen?

Re: BFN after BFP?

  • No, but I would stop with the lined tests and get a digital!  When I took my test, the line was definitely there, but I wanted a digital, so it could spell it out and it read "pregnant."

  • Yes, actually, but only early in my pregnancy. I tested at home with FMU on the Friday I got my BFP with an IC (very faint line) and a digital (pregnant). The next day at work I tested with FMU on 2 tests that we have there & both were BFNs. I think the sensitivity of the tests at my work must be crap because the next morning I tested with one of my ICs again & another digital both BFPs. I wouldn't worry about it too much, although I know it can be difficult. If it makes you feel better, I say test again tomorrow with FMU just to be sure. Those dollar store tests can be iffy anyways.

  • As hard as it is, I would wait a day and then test again. Depending on what you've drank/time of day, when you're really early, your HCG doesn't show as good in your urine!!

  • Yes! I posted earlier about it. Still no answers.

    I'm hoping for the best for both of us!

  • Thanks ladies! While I do think it is a fluke I think I will retest sometime soon. I just don't want to waste money on tests. Stick out tongue

    I did pull the test out of the garbage just to recheck it and there was a second line but it could be an evap line. 

    I am only about 16 DPO and my last cycle (which was oddly long) was 35 days so my levels could just not be high enough yet.

  • Make sure you are testing with your first morning urine. if you test later in the day as early as you are then you might get a BFN. GOOD LUCK
