Thanks. Took a day off from work after a colleague complained about her dresses not fitting her after having a baby. That complaint just ticked me off and I left. Walked dogs. Listened to songs. Hopefully, I'll get over it and move on with the next steps.

I took a CVS pregnancy test and at first a faint blue line appeared in the circle, quickly faded, and disappeared, and a thick blue line showed in the not pregnant section, all within the first two minutes. Hours later, I looked again and the not pregnant line is still really thick, but there is a faint, and incomplete, line on the pregnant section again. This was way after the designated time on the test. I took another test several minutes after the first one, and has stayed thick negative the whole time. Is the first test defective? Any advice on what this may mean?

in my experience CVS test is fine but the test line needs to be thick to be real. it can be faint, very very fine but it has to be wide, like the control line. all the CVS tests i took that were negative had a hair-thin faint positive test line. this is not the line. all tests that had a very light but wide line were real positives.

More reliable than most all others, I'd argue.

When I got my BFP (Beta = 130), I used an old wondfo test just to confirm using midday urine. Worked perfectly.

Not true! I had two false positives and followed up with using my husbands urine and his was positive as well. It was Cvs brand early result.

AND...if you are doing IVF, apparently the meds (specifically, the progesterone) can give you a false positive . Which is what happened to me last cycle

Not the progesterone, that won't give you a false positive, but if you've done a trigger shot that will because it's HCG. The only thing pregnancy tests test for is HCG.

Right- the Progesterone oil shot can dissort the test giving you a false positive

No, it won’t. Only the trigger shot will.
