How many times did it take you to get positive result on a HPT??

Question

I was just wondering how many time it took using a HPT to get a positive result??? I have tested once and it was negative but i am 9 days late... so i am going to wait another week....

just curious on others experiences

my partner and I are on edge waiting to find out.

Answer 1

another week should do it if you are pregnant it could be you just don't have enough hcg built up to detect on a urine test yet but you could always go have a blood test done but sometimes it takes more  than one

Answer 2

First test came up positive and it was 4 days before my missed period.

Answer 3

well it was 2 days b 4 my miss period and i got a pos.

Answer 4

With my daughter I was 11 days late before getting a positive, testing negative at 9 days late. Some women test later than others. There are women who never get a positive on a home test and have to go to the doctor for a blood test to get a positive. Good luck!

Answer 5

Just once.  

Answer 6

All my tests were positive when I was pregnant and negative when I wasn't. I never got a false negative or false positive

Answer 7

I started TTC in Dec 07. AF was 2 weeks & I tested 5 days, 10 days but negative results & she finally showed up after 2 weeks.

AF was 4 days late this time & I tested positive in early Sep. Currently 4w & 6d preggo.

If your HPT is negative after AF is overdue by 9 days, I suggest you to do a blood test at the doctor. HPT can pick up the hormones when AF is overdue. Good luck to you
