Don't test with both OPK and HPT at the same time/let them touch! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989820 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:22:26 +0000 Torchwood 989820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Okay, got enough pee up to test. Definite negative. But don't go feeling sorry for me! After the m/c, such strange timing and all on a positive would have stressed me out. And that's still a very dark OPK, so I think some BDing is in order when DH gets home! (That also matches that my temp is still low.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989814 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:20:28 +0000 Bao 989814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's a line but an interesting one, test again! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989811 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:19:44 +0000 avivoca 989811@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely retest! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989809 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:18:37 +0000 Smurfette 989809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I see a line! Retest STAT!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989792 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:13:15 +0000 ShootingStar 989792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think you'd get that much of a positive on the HPT if it had just bumped the OPK. I think you should try taking another one. On one hand, the HPT looks positive and looks like it had plenty of hcg to color most of the line. But IDK how the timing would match up with where you are. It is possible it could be a faulty test though, @MrsBird had a problem with some wondfos and false positives. I'd get an FRER or digital to confirm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989791 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:13:10 +0000 littlek 989791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I vote for test again. I don't think CD 18 is too early to get a positive, but I would think it would be lighter? When were you expecting AF? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989773 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:09:47 +0000 Mrs.Someone 989773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is definitely a confusing situation! I think it would be a good idea to call your doctor since you do have a positive HPT. Did your HCG get back to 0 after the m/c, or did it just show that it was dropping? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989772 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:09:45 +0000 blackbird 989772@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would definitely test again. The pregnancy test looks suspect b/c it looks half positive?.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989769 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:08:15 +0000 Ra 989769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never charted or used OPKs, so I have no input as far as that goes. I definitely see a line though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989767 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:07:57 +0000 mlm2934 989767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no idea!!!! I vote retest ASAP lol. I did have a couple of false positives back in may after my march m/c that looked similar to that though (color only in a spot on the line) but I didn't compare with OPK at time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989766 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:07:55 +0000 loveisstrange 989766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LizSmith: Haha, I have no freaking clue if it's genuine, but I def see that line. I would re-test for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989765 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:07:51 +0000 Ash 989765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LizSmith: I've never heard that before... Hmmm! I've heard you can use an opk as an indicator of being pregnant though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989761 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:06:39 +0000 Ash 989761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I see a line! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989759 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:06:12 +0000 Torchwood 989759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: More whether it's a genuine positive. </p> <p>Googled since posting this, and looks like OPK's can cause positive HPT's </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989754 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:05:10 +0000 loveisstrange 989754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So... are you asking if that test is positive? I see the line. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-some-help#post-989740 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:02:18 +0000 Torchwood 989740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Okay, so I'm on CD18. I had a m/c almost 8 weeks ago, and got AF back at 5 weeks. Based on an as-dark-as-the-control-line OPK, and symptoms, I thought I O'ed yesterday. But I've been feeling really weird pretty much since before this cycle started. If it weren't for negative HPT's and AF, I would have sworn I was pregnant. Also, AF was definitely bright red, but so light I only needed anything more than a panty liner for a few hours of the whole thing. Today I woke up with such sore boobs I decided to test since I have a zillion anyway (and figured why not go ahead with another OPK while I'm at it, since I have even more of those. I may have a slight obsession with peeing on sticks). What do you make of the picture below? Could the OPK have bumped the HPT and gotten dye on it, since they were right next to each other (since the line is only visible at the top, where they could have touched)? </p> <p>I had blood draws up until shortly before AF, to make sure hormone levels were dropping after m/c, and they all showed normal (if I got KU, that wouldn't be the case), and I had at least one negative HPT before AF. I also took one on CD14 (because of the feeling so weird). I took it in the late evening, definitely not concentrated urine, and it was negative. I thought I *might* have seen the faintest of lines, but it was so faint I decided it was a shadow line or I was imagining it.</p> <p>Also, I just started charting. <a href="http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/LizSmith17" rel="nofollow">http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/LizSmith17</a> Those temps seem way low for being pregnant, but I have no previous temps to compare.</p> <p>Not getting my hopes up. I am refusing to drink anything (to increase concentration) and I'll test again when I can get some pee going. But even if it is for real, doesn't it seem like a bad sign that things are so off?</p> <p>[attach=3674/13/mr2cfw.600x450.Northeast-Jefferson-20130805-00466.jpg] </p>
