Positive test but neg. blood test
Okay I am so confused and don't know what else to do! I had two blood test done and came back negative. I've had 3 faint positive pregnancy home test. And a couple negative. I stopped testing after my last blood drawn which was last Wednesday. I was curious and picked up another test (answer). I took it last night and it came out faint? And about a hour after it was very noticeable. Now I know you don't read it after 10min but for it to be that noticeable kind of blew my mind. I don't know what else to do and I feel like I'm becoming a pain in the ass to my doctors office lol!! I breast feed and haven't received my period yet and my son is almost 6 months old (will be on the 13th). Has anyone experienced this or understand where I'm coming from. I will post the picture lasted but on my page I posted two from last week

If you're only having a qualitative hcg done, it gives a yes or no answer based on if your blood serum HCG. The test level is 25mIU -- equal to or higher is positive, lower is negative.
Home tests are often more sensitive than qual. hcg tests! Ask your doctor for a quantitative hcg count. This will tell them "HOW" pregnant you are. Generally, you do a follow up in two days, and they see if your hcg is rising.
Otherwise, wait a week and go back to the doctor when your hcg levels may be high enough for them to detect on a qualitative.
