Ugh. My fiancé has had a vasectomy for over two years now. I figured the wondering if I was pregnant time was over. Well, I've just been feeling so different this month. I had a period that was only 3 days long and not like normal. It didn't have a lot of clots in it nor was it really heavy. I had none of my usual PMS symptoms. I saw Accu-clear on sale and thought what the hey. My period is done maybe I'll test. Well I got the very very very very faint pink line right at 10 minutes. I figure that has to be a false positive, right? Or maybe I had a chemical pregnancy? I have no idea. I know the best idea is to test again with FMU and another test. I plan to, but for right now I just need to talk it out with some people who might have experienced what I'm going through. I just don't know why I'm feeling so different and why I just 'feel' like I 'know' I'm pregnant. Also, my temp dips and then I start. My temp dipped, went back up, I started, and it stayed up through my period and is up still now. Just weird.

Going to answer my own question, lol. Took EPT with my FMU (which is FEU because I work graveyard) and it was negative. I think it's about every 3 months or so I really get to wanting a baby around the time of my period so I think I imagine the symptoms. However, it seems like Accu-Clear is a bad one to use for people TRYING to conceive. It said on the packaging that you could have a pink line within the 10 minute time frame and I forgot to mention that the first test in the box gave me a WHITE line. So I dunno about trusting these. Alas, no baby for me. But I'm getting past the hormones and I'll just love my toddler extra hard. :)

Well i have to tell you, Yesturday I took a test with CVS pregnancy tests. It was one of the blue ones that makes a + or a -. Well within 3 minutes there was a vertical line forming but was really skinny and faint. Later on, i looked at it again and the darn thing was very, very, blue and made a definate + signt on it. I got really excited and went to get a First response test. To my surprise the First response was negative. I also took another First response this morning and the same thing happened. Very negative. I am very late for my af so I jut really thought i was pg. I tell you, those things suck.

Yes they do! I really hope people don't use them anymore. I wish we could get the word out loud and clear. Because that was TWO of them I used and it was the same thing both times.

I would really recommend the dollar tree tests. They are only one dollar and they have never given me a false positive. Well, once i saw an evap. line but it was when i looked at it the next day so i guess it was my own fault. The CVS test however gave me a faint positive first and then a very bright one. I tell you i have been testing every morning now hoping but of course it always negative. I still have no af and i am actually thinking i am ovulating again. This morning i wiped and had some eggwhite cm. Man, why did i skip a period?
