wtf...bfp, bfn?

i have an iud. we really want a third child, but it's really not in the current budget or family plan.

friday i had really weird pains, not at all like my normal AF-is-coming-within-hours pains. started spotting that night. saturday morning, within a period of not more than 15 minutes, i filled a super plus tampon and made a mess of my pants before i realized it. and then i passed a clot the size of a lemon.

i sent DH to the store for a HPT, which came back BFP. i freaked. b/c what else do you do. sunday i took another, initially it was a BFP (i waited a few minutes before looking, so not likely an evaporation line). after another 20 minute meltdown, i went back to the bathroom to throw the test away and noticed that the second line had disappeared...BFN? took the third test in the box this morning, BFN.

early m/c? bad box of tests? i don't even know what to think. going to see my MWs for blood test this afternoon. 

strangely, i would absolutely LOVE to be pregnant, even though it's totally not in our current plan. but every time i've looked at DD this weekend, it's made me sad b/c i want her to have more time. probably not even an issue anymore anyway. 

:(

    I hope everything is OK. From what I know, there is no such thing as a false positve, only a false negative. I hope you get some answers soon! Keep us posted! *hugs*

    I'm sorry, Lindsey. I hope everything is ok and your midwives can tell you what's going on.

    Between you and Jitterbug, I'm seriously wondering if I need to use backup BCP.

    thanks ladies. it's rather unnerving. i'm also considering back up BC. i really wanted to avoid hormonal BC and i hate condoms...but...what else is there? we did NFP for a while, but it made me a little paranoid and i prefer to be spontaneous (especially with kids...you have to take advantage of moments that move you, KWIM?). :)

    ugh...1 hr to b/w.

    Aww Lindsey!  Hugs girl.  Considering my current state of affairs, I'm scared to death for you.  I can just offer hugs.  Lots of them.  Put it in Gods hands.  Call the gyno, explain the situation and go for a blood test.

    I wish you the best.  I know that feeling right now about looking at DD and wanting to be pg again.  This is the week we would have been announcing my last pg before I m/c.  I've never had an IUD so I can't help you with that, but I have had positive hpt's and then shortly thereafter negative hpt's.  These were my chemical pgs.

    That sounds like an early miscarriage.  I'm so sorry.  Call your doctor.
