Thank you Dr. Lynn, I really appreciate all your help. I took another hpt last night and it was negative again. So I should assume I am not right? I have just one more question.... Is there something wrong with Ortho Cept? The Dr said that there was a lot of bad press around it, but all unfounded. Thanks so much again. After reading all the archives I was really worried, people saying they bled during pregnancy like a normal period and having false hpts - I really didn't know what to think. Needed reassurance.
