As always Thanks SO MUCH!! :D You always seem to be able to explain things in a way I can easily understand! Frustrating as it is I guess I'll simply have to wait until next week to find out for sure what's going on. I'd love to have more info on how it works if you can't test positive on an HPT, it would just figure that I'm THAT way!! (certainly a possibility as with TWINS I'm sure my levels were plenty high enough to normally register). Thanks again for all your time :)
