I think there have been studies done proving that the two week wait is actually a year and a half long. At least, it always feels that way!

LMAO, Essemkay! Digital positive yesterday, negative today. WTH? I Also have no idea when this is from...I think there was a BD that I forgot to track...so I could be anywhere from 5 days to 10 weeks to not pregnant.

Stellar, weren't you the one asking about getting a pos hpt 4 days after sex? You know that's not possible. Even if you got a neg, I'd go in for lab work! False positives are pretty rare.

Lab work?

Didn't you say that you got a positive on a digital? Maybe I have you confused w/someone else. I thought you were the one that got a bfp on a digital 4 days after having sex....which isn't possible unless you were already pregnant.

Yes. I think I either messed the test up, or am pregnant from before. When I opened the test up - it was SOAKED! It's possible I put it too far into my urine stream and messed up the reading. Or I'm pregnant.

@essemkay HAHA! right?! Wow no joke ;D

But to answer the original question, not to just hijack it, yes, what you're experiencing is typical. Symptoms are misleading during the tww as PMS and early pregnancy feel identical. I have two children and even when I was definitely pregnant, there were days when I had zero symptoms other than a bump. Symptoms or lack of tell you little... Unfortunately. Gl!

Also, by 10 wks, hcg levels can confuse a hpt, which may explain the varying results. That's why I recommended lab work.

Teamshrmn - eag923 is right. While I was pregnant with my daughter, there were instances when I felt like I was having menstrual cramps and even had bleeding at 9 weeks, which is common. It's a tortuous similarity that proves that God is a man.
