9 or 10 dpo beta test 4?? Pos preg tests

September 19, 2008

I got my numbers back from Wednesday. It was 4:( I don't understand. I thought you have to have at least 25 to get a positive hpt? I don't understand. The dr. said the preg test was negative because anything under 6 is negative. So I am not even pregnant? I took 2 early response tests on Wed. Both VERY faint pos. Did the beta. Took 1 equate tests yesterday and that was faint positive, one internet cheapie test yesterday and that was EXTREMELY FAINT positive and one clearblue digital last night and that SAID "PREGNANT". I don't get why my beta was just 4:( (sobbing my head off now).

Dr. does getting a 4 on my HCG # doom my pregnancy??? I don't understand the positive test with the BETA of 4.

Can you help me understand?

I did another blood test today but the Dr. said that it wasn't needed. I told him that I needed it. So we did it. I won't get those results until Monday late morning.

Holli-believe.. I hate to say this, but sounds like could be leading to a chemical.. that happend to me in July, had a strong + HPT, was 1 day late went in for my beta and it was negative. My AF followed shortly.. I am so sorry.. Some of those test are more sensitive then they say.. Kelli on here got the target brand test (equal to the FR brand) and she got a + HPT and her beta came back at 3.5

I am really sorry, I hope and pray that this is not a chemical and your HCG is just slow to pick up

Good Luck

Caryn - Can I ask you a question? When that happened to you- I had my hcg test on Wednesday and yesterday and today still had positive hpt's. Did yours get Darker after the beta test?? Mine have been getting darker positive since Wednesday.

I do feel like AF is on her way though:(

Holly.. not to get ur hopes u hun but maybe since ur only 10 dpo that is why its a 4 and when u get closer to when AF is due it will get higher.

I say wait a few more days and test again if no AF. If the test is darker then back to the doc for another beta.

I so hope this is not a chemical for u. I had one in Dec and it sucks booty. I havent had another BFP since then :(

Good luck and keep us posted!

Thanks Katie - I had a chemical too in July. :( It is sooo hard. I am not sure I will survive another emotional roller coaster like that again.

Holly, Just wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you!!! I know this is so hard and I wish you the very best--HUGS!!!!!

HolliBelieve- No sadly my tests did not get darker.. thats a good sign yours are... and I was also 14 DPO , you are only 10 .. so there is always hope.. Good Luck

Holly, when is AF due? If your tests are getting darker that has to be a good sign... If it were a chemical they wouldn't be getter darker... Have you tried testing again today?

Tanya - I am due for af either today or tomorrow. My lower back has hurt a lot today like AF is on the way, but so far no. My lower back hurt last this in July when I m/c too. I did test again today. I acutally used an EPT digital and there was a big bold "PREGNANT" again so I don't know what to think. I think we are coming to terms with the fact that it doesn't look good. I took a couple tests today (14dpo) and they are all still pregnant. :( Its sooooooo hard. If this does m/c it wll be our second in 2 months. 2 months ago tomorrow we miscarried out first:( If we do m/c DH and I have been talking that we are done ttc for at least a year. I can't do this again.

Oh, hun.. I'm so sorry... I know I had a lower backache the month I got my +hpt, right before AF was due, I knew that was a sign I was pregnant.. But it sounds like you must get one before AF, which I never do.. The fact AF isn't here yet is a good thing though.. I'm so hoping and praying that the blood test was just too early and it will have doubled when you hear back on Monday... Are the tests dark yet, or still faint... I think by now they should be super dark, being it was Wednesday when you got your first faint...

I understand if you want to take a break for awhile..Going thru all this stress and sadness is too much to handle every month.. But it is worth it in the end when you have your beautiful, healthy baby, and I'm sure you'll have yours soon..

Good luck and I am praying for you:)

Holly - hang in there hun. Wait til your numbers come back from your doctor and hopefully they will do another test next week. Good signs that your still getting positive HPT's and no AF. Fingers crossed.

Hi Ladies, Tanya, My tests aren't super dark, but they are darker than they were on Wednesday. My back hurt....kind of bad. I feel like I am getting AF really bad. I am scared. I hate that it is Saturday. I hate even more that this is happening again. I am thinking that we will miscarry tomorrow - exactly 2 months since the last m/c. I just can't do this. I don't know what to do. Why are we having these m/c???? I don't understand.

Why won't Dr. answer any of my questions on here???

What causes multiple m/c?? Obviously we have no trouble getting pregnant. But I feel like a killer. My body keeps killing these babies and I feel so guilty:( If I can't take care of my baby when its inside of me, how can I take care of one otherwise.

I just don't understand. Why can't I carry a baby???

I just can't even cry anymore. I wish we couldn't even get pregnant if it means that we will lose it. I would rather struggle to get pregnant I think than to get pregnant and then 4 days later miscarry. It HURTS.

I came here right after I got my first beta numbers and the ladies that I talked to were telling me that it happens and to just deal with it. Seriously??? I can't do this...

Awww Holly hun! Try not to worry about what others say on here. Lets hope that this is not what is happening again. Hope that when Mon comes then u can get another Beat done and ur #'s will be great! I will be praying for u hun.

Ur progesterone could be low or ur lining could be thin and thats why ur having the M/C's. I would talk to the doc about that and see what they think.

Try not to stress to much until u know for sure which I know is very hard. Losing a baby no matter how far u are is a very hard thing. I feel for u hun and hope that this is not the case.

I would suggest that u post a question not discussion for DrQ and see if he answers it for u. He might by pass it if its a discussion hun. Thats what I was told by V.
