    Default 3 positive tests but yet still unsure...

    I am new at posting here but have found just reading the posts have helped me so I decided to ask the question that has been bothering me!
    I have taken 3 ( yes 3) first response early pregnancy test and all 3 were very positive with two pink lines before the 3 minutes. But I still have 2 days before I am suppose to miss my period. I have read many articles that said even though you test positive you still have the chance of not being pregnant because implantation never really occured. Even though I have some of the same symptoms I had with my first pregnancy (I am very tired, slightly nauseated, my breasts are tender and for the last week I feel as though I am going to start my period but have not) I am very confused and still unsure. What are the chances that I will not end up being pregnant? I want to make an appointment with my O.B but I don't want to jump to conclusions without knowing for sure that it's a good possibility. Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I just wait around and buy another test or assume that the first three were accurate and schedule my appointment with my doctor??

    You're preggers. Those tests measure only HCG which you can only have while pregnant, so congratulations! There is always the possibility of a miscarriage or chemical pregnancy but many women get a positive test before their period with good results (I tested + about 3 days prior to missing my period). I'd call the doc within a week or 2 and set up a first appointment and start taking prenatals. H&H 9 months to you

    Oh and the doc will do a blood test so no need to buy more pee tests unless you really just want to keep seeing 2 lines.

    Yep, everything Andi said.
    And why only 3, anyway? C'mon! I took 6 with this pg before I went to the doctor, and I think I took between 9 and 12 with my last pg! Those two lines are so much fun! If you really want to get excited, go get one that actually shows the word PREGNANT in bold letters. Those are a blast.
    Congrats!

    I was thinking about buying one of those last night but I know if I bought it I would take it right away and not wait until I was late! I bought one of those with my first pregnancy and only took one! Thank you both for your input! It has reassured and calmed me down a bit!

    Yep I'd say you are also!

    And just an FYI - if you get pregnant and it doesn't implant it's usually a chemical pregnancy and you m/c before or around 5 weeks... I had one before DD and I wasn't getting positive test results consistently. It'd be positive one test and negative the next... and that was after AF was due. If you're showing all positives before AF is even due then I'd say you're looking good!!

    Congrats!

    My doctor wanted me to call the second I got a positive test result to have me started on progesterone and to have my thyroid test. Women without history usual go in between eight and ten weeks. Good luck.
