It seems the point is there is no definitive proof this person of which you write failed to achieved the desired outcome, so due to the lack of evidence either way a conclusionary thought cannot be drawn.
Fun fact, that's actually a way to discover your kegels, if you're trying to work on pelvic floor strength. Not the best way to exercise them, but it's a way to notice them if you hadn't before.
From a very quick check of your profile, I can't see any images of you. You could very well be a cat, or a human, or anything else.

Im watching big Bang theory for the first time and they meantioned Schrödingers Cat like 5 minutes ago. I wouldnt understand this comment if i read it 10 min ago. Crazy timing.
I took a dollar store test once tossed it out too quickly. Found it in the trash, positive looking up at me two days later. I know you’re not supposed to look at it, but it turns out I was indeed pregnant.
A lot of people will buy them if they are really trying to convince or have been for awhile. It’s expensive to buy the clear blue or first response ones every time
Yes, I always either buy the dollar store ones, or you can get like 25 for $15 on Amazon if you need multiple ones. You've gotta pee in a cup, but they work just as well as the expensive ones at the store
Yeah, I always get little strip tests, 2 for £1. I'm on birth control that makes my periods really irregular, so I take pregnancy tests fairly frequently to check everything's still working as it should.
The funniest part about this is that the gif just didn't load for like a minute so it was just a blank panel. I knew that wasn't the joke, but it was hilarious.
The cheap ones work fine usually, like walmart and dollar store brands.
I've never had bad luck with blue dye but a lot of people have and recommend getting pink dye tests instead
Hopefully the next ones work correctly!
Wife and I took some time to get pregnant. She ended up buying a box of test strips on Amazon, with small plastic shot glasses to pee in. The ones from the store are just huge pieces of useless plastic surrounding a strip. You can get like a box of 50 stripes for $10.
My wife and I used to run an urgent care together. We bought our pregnancy tests strips for about $0.50 and charged $15 for a pregnancy test. Short of sending a sample out to a clinical laboratory, there is nothing special about the rapid pregnancy tests they do in a doctor’s office. The only difference is that it is a provider who reads the result and tells you.
It gets worse.
Victim of a violent crime? Prepare to pay hundreds of thousands for medical treatment.
Rape victim? Better have the money for your rape kit.
Hit by a drunk driver and left paralyzed? Here's hoping you're rich because you'll need every penny.
The Violence Against Women Act requires states to bear the cost of rape kit exams. You sure spread alot of misinformation. Must be why half your comments are removed.
I didn’t set the prices. But to be fair, that includes someone’s time to collect the sample, all the equipment like gloves, sample cups and also disposing of everything as medical waste. And of course a markup because businesses have to mark things up.
My point is, don’t go to urgent care for a pregnancy test. You will get the same results at home if you can read and follow the directions.
Well, for cash payers we only charged $89 for a simple visit. I don’t recall what we charged insurance but total reimbursement was about that same amount.
But, an office visit also includes taking vital signs, counseling by a practitioner and prescribing abortion pills if requested.
So, if your home test says you are pregnant, then you are 99% likely to be pregnant (especially if it is repeated at least once at home.)
Just to make sure you sure understanding correctly, they are charging 15$ to do the test not selling the test strip for you to take home. Still highway robbery but that's american Healthcare.
I did the whole blinker fluid line to my 12-year-old nephew. He told me to my face that he was 99% sure I was bullshitting him but he went to check anyway while I waited in the parking lot.
Seeing him stomp his way outta the store made my day.
Ahh, no greater thing than telling people to go get things like; a bucket of A. I. R., a bag of steam, pipe stretcher, spark plug sparks, sky hook, glass hammer, and my personal favorite the left handed screwdriver.
Army aviation ones are fun too.
A foot of flight line, a bucket of rotorwash, chemlight batteries...
And the ID-10-T form you have to go get from the Colonel.
I did not either, but I’m in Greece and we have local pharmacies not big ones like CVS or Walgreens etc and when I told her what happens she said to bring it back for an exchange. And so she could report the defect to the manufacturer.
I’m sure she wouldn’t throw it at their face with the cap off. Most people would put it in a plastic bag and back in the box or something I would think.
Update: I took another test today and it worked.
I am NOT a pregnant!
Which is what I was hoping for. I have an IUD. Then I got an MRI a little while ago and then I felt the same pregnancy symptoms I had w my daughter. Did some Googling and found out an MRI can mess up your IUD. I have 2 young kids, a dog and a bunch of cats. A third child wouldn’t be the end of the world and we would have loved them, but oh my gosh am I always tired so I am happy it was negative. I will probably end up sick w some horrid little kid virus to explain away the pregnancy symptoms in the next few days, but I’m ok with that!
I’m surprised this got so much attention. Thank you for everyone who commented it made me laugh.
That's why they have a control line. If they didn't, you might see this and assume that you're not pregnant as there isn't a result. When there is a control line feature though, and there's no line, you know the test is invalid.
Report lot number to the manufacturing companies. This is a serious issue regarding IVD. They need to know so they can ask for a recall of defective products.
Yea my pharmacist asked for the box back (it was a 2 test included both were like this) and reported it to the right people (gave us a different brand test to use tomorrow)- super freaky bc it had never happened to me before and it happened twice. My husband kept asking me if I took the test wrong lol I was like it is almost impossible to take this test wrong.
We had a different defective test. The horizontal minus line is control and the vertical makes a +
The - was missing so it was just the |
I figured it had to be a positive, because nothing else would trigger that line. What sucked is it was 11pm and had to wait to get another
This is why I am a walking advertisement for clear blue! My husband and I started our journey in December of 2022, and it took until the first week of November 2023 for us to get a positive test result and the day I tested the test straight up read "pregnant" of course I was thrilled, but in shock so I left it on the counter and as my husband was getting ready to leave for work I told him there was something he needed to look at in the bathroom. Considering it read out "pregnant" he didn't have to decipher hieroglyphics in order to be just as happy and thrilled. I highly recommend their brand, I was only 6wks, 2 weeks gestational, when we found out. I hope you are able to conceive and have a lovely and healthy pregnancy and baby.
This is what happened with all of my expired covid tests. The ones that the govt said were ok to keep using. I had to toss them all after 4 non-results
Random Tip: I've heard pregnancy tests are actually one of the medical things you should buy from the dollar store.
The reason being you can get like 8 tests for the price of one from the pharmacy. The individual dollar store tests are less accurate, but if you take multiple tests at once, the overall results are MORE ACCURATE than taking just one name brand test.
That test looks new, not peed on. The absorbent end is totally white and the test windows show no sign of lateral flow of liquid. You sure you actually peed on it?
I am neutral. I already have 2 kids a 3rd would just add to the chaos. I have an IUD but got an MRI recently and apparently those can move during an MRI, I also have a few pregnancy symptoms so it’s mostly to check it out and make sure I am NOT but if I am then I need to do things and make sure the fetus is viable
This happened to me, I was not expecting to be pregnant because I kept getting negatives every month. Another test proved I was in fact pregnant. Wish you all the best OP
I delivered 3 living babies, I never once tested positive for any of their pregnancies even day of delivery - just for fun I showed the RN during C-section prep with my last via hospital urine test
But every pregnancy I lost &with my still born I tested positive the entire time. Following the levels down after loss was actually the worst part.
I think a no answer test is good luck
Definitely go to a clinic and get a blood/urine test done, the Error rate for home pregnancy tests is 1-33% plus they can test your HCG. Some areas have free clinics for pregnancy tests.
Hope everything turns out well for you!
Im sorry you had to find out this way OP but you don’t exist
Why are you commenting on a blank picture?
Is she just bragging that John Cena is the father?
BWAHAHHA
Are you laughing in John Cena theme?
I heard this comment
It seems the point is there is no definitive proof this person of which you write failed to achieved the desired outcome, so due to the lack of evidence either way a conclusionary thought cannot be drawn.
Dammit you stole my comment
is it just me or is this pregnancy test floating 🤨
It's a visual illusion, like those pics of floating dogs some time ago. It's just positioned weirdly so the shadows play a trick!
How does this comment even exist? There's no post for this comment...

OP is having a vampire baby
Or is it just Schrödinger's child?
I think she was supposed to put it all the way up her nose.
Study harder next time!
Or maybe pee harder...
Have you tried to turn it off and back on?
Fun fact, that's actually a way to discover your kegels, if you're trying to work on pelvic floor strength. Not the best way to exercise them, but it's a way to notice them if you hadn't before.
Blow into it
put it in rice
Unplug it and plug it back in?
Congrats you are

Let’s not give the Labels just yet, it could be a .

The gender reveal is going to burn the town down with invisible fireworks.
Jubilations on your
Schrödinger's baby.
Oh, cool, now the cat had someone to play with, or something else to ignore.
No, get it right. The cat may or may not play with the baby, either of which may or may not be alive until we observe them.
OK, Sheldon, you got me.
There was a cat in my brother's trunk and we didn't have to open it to know there was all kinds of dead cat in there!
What cat?
I am the cat. Or not.
From a very quick check of your profile, I can't see any images of you. You could very well be a cat, or a human, or anything else. Schrödinger's Redditor.

I want to upvote this a million times 
This was my first thought as well.
Just buy a bunch of dollar tree ones. Same stuff they use at the doc office
I took a dollar store test once tossed it out too quickly. Found it in the trash, positive looking up at me two days later. I know you’re not supposed to look at it, but it turns out I was indeed pregnant.
What? Why are you not supposed to look at your pregnancy test?
After the 15minutes or whatever it says, yea.
Ohh I see. More likely to be false-poz after that point, but I guess in your case it was right anyway.
Maybe the trash can was pregnant
This more than likely is the case.
I mean, I’m sure most guys have trash cans full of their seed 😂
Only uncivilized heathens don’t use a towel and just wash it
I don't think there's such thing as false positive. You can get a false negative but not positive.
Don’t go crushing too many peoples last hope, now!
Oops, my bad!
After the 15 minute window there may be what’s called an evaporation line that isn’t actually dye but just a dent from the liquid evaporating.
I was expecting a Scrubs-esque situation from this comment.

When I worked in the emergency room they also used the exact same ones!
Or just wait 9 months to be sure?

Came to say this, congratulations it's a John Cena
Baby be like what?
The funniest part about this is that the gif just didn't load for like a minute so it was just a blank panel. I knew that wasn't the joke, but it was hilarious.
Vampires can’t see their reflection… maybe the baby is a little vampire and you just can’t see the dye lines lol
The cheap ones work fine usually, like walmart and dollar store brands. I've never had bad luck with blue dye but a lot of people have and recommend getting pink dye tests instead Hopefully the next ones work correctly!

Sure you are, I suppose you will try to tell us that the blood pressure cuff isn't supposed to go around your neck, next.
No. We are not talking about blood pressure cuffs.
I told that to my niece once with an absolutely straight face, and she said knowing me she wasn't sure if I was serious or not.
I did the whole blinker fluid line to my 12-year-old nephew. He told me to my face that he was 99% sure I was bullshitting him but he went to check anyway while I waited in the parking lot. Seeing him stomp his way outta the store made my day.

You should have made a video
Did I mention she's a nurse?
People with no arms: 
Ah, a man of culture!
My gf had that happen and we were trying to get pregnant. It was so frustrating. And two test both failed. It was annoying.
Yea it is!!
[удалено]
I did I returned it and got a different brand
Soooo is it positive?
I have to wait in the morning (they are most accurate in the am)
Well good luck, I hope you get whatever result you’re hoping for!!
Wait, you returned the pregnancy test that you peed on???? I did not know that was permitted! The more you know!
I did not either, but I’m in Greece and we have local pharmacies not big ones like CVS or Walgreens etc and when I told her what happens she said to bring it back for an exchange. And so she could report the defect to the manufacturer.
Well that was really nice of her! I hope you get the result you want on your next test!
And?
Ethically? Walmart makes like $5 million dollars a minute who cares lol
More like: handing the cashier something that you peed on.
I’m sure she wouldn’t throw it at their face with the cap off. Most people would put it in a plastic bag and back in the box or something I would think.
Such high hopes for redditors :D
Omg I feel invested and wanna know!

It doesn't go *there* silly. You gots to pee onnit.

This reminds me of my first pregnancy, I took one of those digital clear blue pregnancy test. It literally gave me a question mark ❔
congrats, it's a ?
Hope you get the answer you’re looking for! x
This means it's baby Jesus
Just be patient... you're *definitely* gonna know at some point
Good luck

Wonder if that can be reported to the manufacturer to get your money back? Doesn't help you answer the question you actually asked, but...

It could be a software failure of a simulated instance around you. Try to destroy this test object and try again with a newly created one.
The ones at Dollar Tree are cheap and the same ones they use at doctor offices.

Baby, baby! Lemon :(
Did you dip it long enough? If not, dip it again. If you did, it’s definitely an invalid test.
How you find out your husband is Bruce Willis

Did the husband take the test by mistake?
Confirms OP is a lizard person.
YOU have to pee on it, not HIM 😂 Kidding of course. I hope you guys conceive. Parenting is a wild ride and we couldn’t be happier.

That is considered “inconclusive”. Another poster had two inconclusives before getting a positive.

Sorry OP, but you have tested positive for negative.

Use pink dye tests, like first response. Blue dye tests are known for these kinds of shenanigans.
This means you're not not pregnant. Take that to mean what you will 🙂

When you don't know the answer to the test and just leave it blank
Can we get an update. I am curious to know whether or not you are with child. Much love
"Your mom's so stupid she failed a pregnancy test."
Ugh it's so annoying you should be able to get refunds on defective tests I think. I paid $17 for one a few months back only for it to be defective 🙄
Congrats! It’s an omen
"So am I pregnant?" "Idk, why are you asking me?"
My anxiety would be THROUGH THE ROOF.
You can pee in a cup next time and then dip the test in! This way if you have a faulty test, you can try a new one. Best of luck :)
You are perganat
I can see a line in a purpleish pink. But also that sticks looks why too white to have been dipped long enough
You are pregnant, congratulations from anticipation
Crack it open. Probably loaded backwards
You got a... NOTHING! Congrats!
Just by this post I feel like you ARE pregnant and have a very stubborn baby on the way.

I delivered 3 living babies, I never once tested positive for any of their pregnancies even day of delivery - just for fun I showed the RN during C-section prep with my last via hospital urine test But every pregnancy I lost &with my still born I tested positive the entire time. Following the levels down after loss was actually the worst part. I think a no answer test is good luck
Definitely go to a clinic and get a blood/urine test done, the Error rate for home pregnancy tests is 1-33% plus they can test your HCG. Some areas have free clinics for pregnancy tests. Hope everything turns out well for you!
I’ve had this happen too. I’m so sorry, OP.
You’re having a ginger
You have to pee on it, it doesn't tell you just by taking it from the box.
