Hi! I need some input on what might be going on. Below is my story:
My husband and I have been trying to conceive since October 2014. I became pregnant with twins and went to the doctor to hear the heart beat at the end of December. At the time of the visit the doctor was not able to detect a heartbeat. I had a D & C on Jan 2, 2015. After the D & C it took some time to get my period regulated. I ended up having a 38 day cycle. Before I was a 28 day. My last period was on April 30-May 5th. I took an ovulation kit and got a positive on May 20th and 21st. On both of those days we had sex. I was expected to have a period on June 8th. Currently, I am 10 days with a missed period. On 06-17-2015 I got two faint positive pregnancy test (one clear blue - AM and one first response- PM). This morning I had a cheap dollar general test and got a negative. I have been having pregnancy symptoms, (Sore breast, fatigue, etc) Does this mean I am pregnant? How long would you wait before calling the doctor? Thank in advance for all your help! Any guidance would be appreciated. Wishing for baby dust
Wait a few days and test again if AF doesn't show. It is against TOU to ask if you are pregnant. Clearly you should have read the guidelines and newbie thread at the top of the page.

We cannot tell you if you are PG. Take another test or wait it out.
Also, please don't use the term "baby dust" some of us find it offensive because it sounds like cremated remains, which some of us (including me) have from our lost child/ren. I know you meant it in a good way, but I wanted to let you know.
Obviously my post was offensive to some. I clearly misunderstood this discussion board. I did not read the guidelines and newbie thread at the top of the page and apologize for offending anyone. I did not use the term "baby dust" to be offensive. Maybe I am being too sensitive but I looked to this for guidance and support. Some of the replies are very negative and hurtful. I just don't think this board is for me.

Your original post was the online equivalent to walking up to a complete stranger on the street and asking if you're pregnant. To get support you have to give support. Try actually interacting with the women on this board before asking them to magically looking inside your ovaries.
Also, your post was already quoted so deleting it accomplished absolutely nothing and is incredibly rude to the people who took the time to give you pretty solid advice
If you didn't take the time to read the guidelines and newbie thread how would you even know what this board is about? It's hurtful to these women to have to repeat themselves all day everyday because someone woke up and decide to ask strangers over the internet if they could be pregnant. Didn't take the time to search or read the guidelines pinned to the too of the board. Do you think those didn't apply to you? Hopefully you can take this as a learning lesson and search, read old post, and stick around. They have a lot of women here that have so much information to give. I know from experience, I jumped right in and got flamed myself. Take some time and read.

Um seriously? Read the rules & guidelines, they are there for a reason.
"Oh hai, I don't care enough about this community to adhere to asinine rules that clearly don't apply to me. Am I pregnant? Yall are mean for not supporting me even though I don't care about yall & the board rules."

That's what I got from you.
ETA: I see @juliehollz13 supports you though.
I sympathize with her doesn't mean I support her.

This is the perpetual drama. :-/ We should just as a block say, "Go to your BMB." There are always gonna be people in the app who dont read the thread at the top. And I was able to post without waiting 72 hours because my email was still good from three years ago...so anyone from the Knot might not be taking any lurking time. :-(
Just take a deep breath, read through the rules & guidelines and don't take nasty comments personally. Trying to get pregnant can be one of the most challenging and confusing times so it's natural for everyone to get a little nasty at some stage. Good luck!
Btw, 2 positive tests are a pretty good sign that you're preggers, even if they're faint!

Lol, I always hate it when I read "preggers". But then again, I sometimes ask my sister if her Eggo is Preggo. So maybe I have no room to talk...

I don't see any nasty comments. Who are you trying to call out?

Hey guys- she apologized and decided this wasn't the board for her. I think we can all agree with her on that and move on. Luckily, it sounds like she's pregnant so hopefully her BMB will be more to her liking.
I understand this thread is done & OP is most likely pregnant-- but I was going to say-- just wait a week. You'll either get your period or a digital positive.
I've tried supporting internet randoms before. Even if you are nice, it's rare that anyone notices. Because you aren't telling them pretty little lies they want to hear then you are mean.
Bump moms are literally worse than the meanest cyber bullies. Stop being nasty to everyone and chill OUT
Sooo, why are you on here? I really don't care either way, but if you think the posters on here are the worst ever, why wouldn't you just find a different site? If I had that outlook I totally would.

I'm sorry to say it but you won't win on here. I agree with you that sometimes they take their sarcasm to the next level - don't take it personally, just lurk and try to avoid commenting and if you see something out of line report it. It's against guidelines to harass or make fun of the original poster. If you want more encouraging (aka super hopeful, positive, slightly misguided) advice or don't mind the symptom spotting/am i pregnant questions go to www.thetwoweekwait.com, you're allowed to post pictures on there and do polls of whether or not the community thinks you're pregnant. It's not always productive but its fun lol. The ladies on here can be pretty uptight towards posters who are laid back about conceiving. Best of luck!
It is against the TOU to post anything that "advertises or solicits business for products or services other than those that are offered and promoted on the Site."

No one is condoning that either? Because one person does something that you aren't supposed to do, it makes it ok for you to?
Just for the record, usually when someone says "go to babycenter," they aren't promoting it in a good light. It's more like, "if you just want someone to blow smoke up your ass, head on over to babycenter."
Also, I would just like to point out that I really don't know anything about you or your history, but out of all of the times I have seen your name on here, you are in an argument with someone. Take it easy.
@juliehollz13 so, how's all that reporting been going for you? We're still all here so no one here is doing anything against any rules. Looks like your posts are the only ones getting delete-worthy warnings.
Telling someone "go pee on a stick" when they think they may be PG is not rude. What the hell else are we supposed to say to randoms? "Omg! Go take a test!!! You are totally PG! Squeeeee!!!"
Yeah the BGs deleted that post real quick. She has to have a couple warnings by now.

If you read closely, you will notice that many of the posters (myself) included do not actually name the other sites that people might like. I just tell people that there are many other sites out there with misinformed people who will tell you that you are pregnant even though the tests are negative. Naming other sites IS against the rules, so everyone be careful.

The only comment of mine that got deleted is the one that mentioned the other site. The rest of my comment agreed with the other posters but mentioned that this site may not be good for people who are sensitive. I dont know what other comments of mine are "getting deleted" or what warnings i'm supposed to have but seems like some of you are holding a grudge over a post that happened a week ago. If that's how you roll, more power to you.
