I got a surprise BFP on Thursday. I am one of those worried souls that likes to torture myself, so I have been taking HPT's every morning since my first positive. I have a ton of wondfo's on hand from my previous efforts at TTC, and some $tree tests. I bought a FRER to "officially" check for a BFP prior to a HIDA scan that I was supposed to have on my gallblader on Friday.
I got a positive on all three tests on thursday evening when I first found out I was pregnant. 
On Friday morning I got all 3 positives again. But the FRER was lighter. I had a beta on Friday morning and it was very low at 10.3 but I was probably only 12 or 13 dpo.
On Sat. all three tests were positive but the FRER was super light, probably the lighest possible positive. I was very worried.
This morning (Sun.) I got a negative FRER :( I'm pretty convinced at this point that I am losing the pregnancy. The weird thing though, is that the $tree test is still light positive, and the wondfo test has gotten darker! Very weird.
I go in for a second beta tomorrow morning. So I will know for sure then.

I'm very stressed out and sad. I keep telling myself this loss will give me time to get my gallblader issues identified and resolved before trying to carry a pregnancy, but its not helping much!

Do you have any spotting or other signs of a MC? The lvl of HCG in urine changes throughout the day based on many factors like dehydration and such. You are still very early in the pregnancy and you might be off on when you O'd as well. I know it is hard to hear but try to distract yourself and relax if you can. And stop taking preg tests. No more stressing yourself. It is like weighing yourself 5 times throughout the day to see what changed.

::hugs:: Sending lots of well wishes your way.

Thanks Pixi girl. I'm not bleeding or spotting yet. I almost wish I was because it would give me a more definitive answer. I have been having some cramping, but I have had that for the past week. By this time tomorrow I should have the results of my second beta back.

I had a lot of cramping early on with all 3 of my pregnancies and they were all full term babies. So cramping is not always a sign of MC.

Well, pleasant turn of events. I was at my sister's house this afternoon and she suggested I take a FRER that she had. I held my urine for 3 hours and then took the test and it was positive! Not only positive, but the darkest one I've got yet! Talk about a whirlwind of emotions! I have no idea whats going on, but I think the lesson is to stop taking HPT's! I get my second beta done tomorrow and am hoping and praying its good news!

VSG on 01/30/09 with
FRERs have been sucking serious ass for several months now.  If you're really interested I have pics that show I tested just about every day from 3w3d to 9w6d and at one point the ICs had a darker test line than control line and the FRERs were still barely (but easily visible) there.  I never got a dark FRER.  And the little bugger kicking the crap out of me right now proves that not all FRERs are created equal :)

I wish you a H, H & sticky 9 months!
