I say try another brand! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453635 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 12:59:38 +0000 monet11 453635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This just happened to me! I took 2 and the control line never showed up! It was the Walgreen brand. I think I'm going to try another brand tonight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453564 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 12:31:20 +0000 blackbird 453564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ack it sounds broken!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453559 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 12:28:30 +0000 shopaholic 453559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I found that the best way to make sure you "got it" right with the Target Dipsticks and even the regular pee-on-it-sticks, was just to pee in a cup and then dip/soak them until they were for sure wet. Sounds like you got a defective test if you didn't even get the control. I once got a defective OPK test from CB, wrote them, and they sent me a whole new box for free! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453535 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 12:12:25 +0000 rachiecakes 453535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetchic: I hated the blue dye tests, the lines were never super dark, neither one of them. For future use, I will only test with pink dye tests. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453532 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 12:10:26 +0000 Alivoo01 453532@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetchic: Well that sucks! Defective test for sure!! Sorry to hear! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453523 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 12:06:55 +0000 JoJoGirl 453523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That's the point of a control line - so you know the test worked. Just go get another one, it happens sometimes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453487 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:58:07 +0000 Meridian 453487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It had NO lines whatsoever! Not even the control line (I'm assuming that's the one that says if you're NOT pregnant?) It was a generic Target brand test (Up and Up), so I'm going to get one of the name brand ones today... not that it should matter, it should have worked! grrr.</p> <p>@blackbird: I ovulated 17 days ago... but my cycle is irregular, so 17 days could be totally normal for me and Flo could show up tomorrow or Thursday for all I know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453480 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:56:01 +0000 Alivoo01 453480@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like bookworm, I'm curious to know if the control line didn't appear either??? I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you it was a defective test and a BFP is awaiting for you this afternoon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453479 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:54:55 +0000 Ash 453479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had that happen with a frer... after what seemed like an hour the control line appeared... needless to say, af showed up a couple days later. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453449 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:47:55 +0000 Bookish 453449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like no control line either? I had that happen once, it was a defective test so I had to re-do it. Annoying! Good luck!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453447 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:47:39 +0000 blackbird 453447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>do you know when you ovulated?... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pg-test-that-didnt-show-anything#post-453438 Tue, 18 Dec 2012 11:45:26 +0000 Meridian 453438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I am 17 days into my 2 week wait, so I decided to take a pregnancy test this morning. And it showed NOTHING. There were NO lines, not even faint ones!! It makes me wonder if I even peed on the dang thing, but I swear I did!! </p> <p>Grrr, it was my last one so now I need to go to the drugstore to get some more. Except I stopped at Walgreens this morning and they were behind a locked case and it seemed like too much effort to ask someone to unlock them for me... so I have to make another trip to Target this afternoon. Has anyone had this happen to them?</p> <p>Aaaannnd *fingers crossed*... </p>
