I didnt know about this!
And you may not know either, so that’s why I’m sharing this!
So yesterday when I woke up I decided to take a pregnancy test again, just for fun since I know I’m pregnant. I’m 6+4 weeks and I just take them every once in a while to make sure I’m still Preggo lol. Well, this morning when I took the test the line was so much weaker then the other tests I’ve taken. Obviously I immediately had a heart attack and thought that this was it, I was going to have another miscarriage. I started googling about it and came across something called the hook effect, it’s when you have so much hcg that the test just doesn’t work the same anymore, it usually happens around 10 weeks and later. The poster said to mix your urine with water and you should get better results.
I waited for 20 minutes, then peed again and mixed it with water and the line was as dark as it could get. Thank god! Now I’m not gonna do anymore tests and I will just enjoy this pregnancy. Going in for an ultrasound in 10 days hoping I will see a beating heart. ❤️
First pic is the tests that scared the shit out of me and the other one is from the urine/water mix!
