Was your Home Pregnancy Test accurate on you?

Question

For women who have been pregnant/have had child(ren). Did you ever have any problems with it? And did it ever fail when you were actually pregnant?

Answer 1

Mine have always been accurate.

Usually when a test gives you a negative when you're pregnant, it's because there isn't enough hCG built up yet in your urine.

Answer 2

Actually when I was preg in feb it was acurate I took it when my cycle was exactly one week late and I though i had gotten a false posative. I miscarried the baby in april but in october when my period failed to come on I took the exact same kind of test but this time the day my period should have been on and if was negative but with my swelling breast I suspected it was to early and a false negative. So instead of taking another test, partialy because I was scared of it once again saying negative I decided to wait for my period, it didn't come on and I just let that be all the testing I needed. A few weeks later I went to my doctor and my pregnancy was confirmed. I saw the heartbeat a week after that and now I'm very happily pregnant, 15 weeks with my first and very excited :-)

Answer 3

Yep! all five times!

even when at 18 i got more fluid on the rest of the test than i did on the tip, then again at 36and was only about 2 days late!!

Answer 4

I took two generic pg tests with my 2 mo. old son. I took one the day after my missed period. It only cost my $1.00, I was in denial so again 3 days later I took the same kind....again...POSITIVE...next day still in denial I took the "Clear Blue Easy" ......and 8 months later TA-DA...my baby boy Ben

Answer 5

I have a good history with HPTs they always give me an accurate result.

Answer 6

sorry i dont know too much as you can see but i think accurate or not you should always try at least 10 and see what the majority says, no i've never tryed it...
