What is the likelyhood of the doctors urine test being a false positive?
i did a home preg test and it was pos. and the doctor did another urine test and it was also "deffinatly positive" as she said. she also examined me and said she could feel the uterus/baby or whatever is there any chance it could be a false positive? or am i just worrying myself?? I get mt HCG level count early next week.

- Maybe a 0.5% chance of a false positive - false negatives are much more common. If enough HGC is present to turn the test positive, you're almost certainly pregnant! Congrats!!!
- You probably are just freaking yourself out. Your doctor said that you had a positive pregnancy test so you most likely are pregnant. CONGRATS. I wish you luck.
- You are just worrying yourself.You are most def.pregnant!I know it takes a while to take it in,but smile because you have a life inside of you!If the dr examined you and everything there is no doubt!
- It is very unlikely the u would get a false positive
- Yay you're pregnant. Good Luck
- I have had false positive from a hospital test, it does happen, HOWEVER, they said they could feel the fetus, they did not say they could feel the fetus in my case.
- The likely hood of getting a false positive is very very low!! and in your case you had a couple of positives....you are definitely pregnant! Congratulations! enjoy it and stop worrying yourself!! :)
