2 positive pregnancy test but blood work normal

Hi so I last had unprotected sex on the 31st August, I’m now on my 5th day of no period, I’m feeling sick and cramping, took an early detection pregnancy test yesterday and today and they were both positive. Went to the doctors yesterday and they done one on theirs and it was negative. Sent me for bloods and they’ve come back today and my hcg is 4.9 so just under what would be classed as a positive. Surely the blood test would’ve picked up a positive if the pregnancy test has right? Or have I just had 2 faulty tests?

It could be a ectopic pregnancy? Especially with the low hcg x

Do you have a photo of the positive tests?

Unlikely you'd had 2 false positives on different red dye tests.

Can anyone see a v v faint line?

Am I seeing things? In some light I was adamant it was negative but then I feel I can also see a v faint line. I’ll try post other photo in comments

This will be 11DPO and I had a very clear positive with July 2025 baby at just 8DPO 🤔

Girl mom question about 2nd baby introductions

We are expecting a son and we are nervous about introducing the “wrong” way.

Did other moms have success if so what did you do to prepare toddler (18 month old) for a baby sibling?
