Digital negatives but strip test positive

Background: I had a miscarriage in October at 10+5. Found the whole thing very traumatic: big bleed, passed out, spent the night in A&E on my own as my husband had to stay in car with our 1 year old, only 2 weeks after starting a new job, work with tiny babies, had seen a heartbeat on scan a few weeks before etc… Now trying to conceive and finding it difficult to believe it will be ok. I tested really really early and got a vvv faint line. Have continued to test daily the last couple of days the lines are getting stronger on strip test but clear blue digital weeks indicator still saying ‘Not Pregnant’. Does anyone have similar experience? They’re supposedly very sensitive tests so should be able to pick it up if the others are. This is really doing nothing for the anxiety feeling that this isn’t real and is all going to go wrong again!!!

The Digitals take more hcg to show as positive. But the strip ones look positive. If you keep testing they should get darker and then the digit will also show as pregnant. It’s seems you’re in the very early days of being pregnant. Congratulations.

I’m sorry you’ve had such a tough time. I lost a little one in Dec at almost 12 weeks and I’m now currently 12 weeks pregnant again, so I completely understand the anxiety. For me at least it hasn’t gone away either, I’m just taking it all a day at a time. Do you know what DPO you are? I imagine it’s just a little early for them to pick up on the digitals. Hcg levels can vary so much, just keep checking those line are darkening up slowly and I’m sure the digital will follow. Best of luck and deep breaths 💕

Thank you!!! Just been to Boots and bought another 4 digitals in the search for that positive! 😂 I had LH peak on 2nd of April so I think I’m DPO 12 or 13 so I was surprised it wasn’t coming up on the digital. But hopefully soon! Congrats Amy! Any tips on handling the anxiety greatly received!! 🥰 xx
