all hpt's are equal, but some are more equal than others

You were all right. First off, a line is a line. But second, the dollar store tests are insanely faint compared to this:



Do you suppose the clinic would yell at me if I showed up for a beta tomorrow instead of Friday?

Whoooooh!!!
Just proves I am *always* right. I'm telling you, I never EVER see a line that isn't there!!!
Soooo (tentatively) happy for you.
Call the clinic right this second!
Wake them up from their beds!

Didn't get to comment on your last post in time, but I was gonna say, go get a real test! And indeed.
This is a good start. Now stop testing and don't get into the line comparison, it is nonsense. Fingers crossed for positive news on and on.

I'd be camping at the their door steps and if refused I'd fake a nervous breakdown and swear up and down that my life depended on that test...then again...maybe now it's not a good time to end up at loony bin or jail.

It's wonderful seeing those two lines...sooooo...how many sticks have you peed on...are you downing water just to pee!?!!LOL :)

Definitely time for a blood test. I won't congratulate you until the doctor confirms your HPT results.

But, I am thinking of you. Feel a hug!

So glad you have a clearer answer. I would think twice about testing early. I had the faint dollar store test, and then a very clear first response test and I went for my beta early and got a 22. I freaked and figured it was doomed to be a chemical and fretted for days as it doubled merrily and turned out to be my daughter. Unwanted stress.

Wow how exciting! Yep the dollar tests are very faint all of the times I have used them. I would def be camping out in front of the clinic!!!!!!! Congrats!

Dora said...

WOOOHOOOO! That is a VERY strong line! You are knocked up, my friend! YAY!!!!

Chris said...

Woohoo!! I'm so sorry I missed this yesterday. Have you had your beta yet? Update ASAP!

I'm all for the beta, but while we're here chomping at the bit, remember that a single beta means NOTHING.
I have been not pregnant and had relatively high betas. The important thing is doubling time, which takes at least two tests and several days' time. So let's give poor Sara room to breathe, folks...cuz she's breathing for 2 now. (at LEAST two)
