I've f'd up a pregnancy test

[Fer]

Wait til next Thanksgiving. She will have worked it out for herself by then.

As someone has said, these tests are not 100%

Occasionally you get a 'false positive' reading.

Don't give in. When she misses her period, suggest another test.

If you are still together in a few years, which I am sure you will be, best wishes etc, with a wonderful kid, you can tell her about this and have a laugh!

This.

And for fk's sake don't leave your computer logged into Pistonheads when she's around, ever again.

There are very clear reasons why I haven't told her straight away, which are private between her, myself and her family. Sometimes ways to protect and nurture aren't always as straight forward as may appear.

I bet she'll see the bigger picture when she finds out. There is no way she is going flip her st.

As soon as there's a viable reversible vasectomy or male pill I'm all over it. I'd hate to be in this sort of situation.

These tests aren't 100% accurate.... but you have borked yourself by posting it on the web. Get her to do a second test and 'find out the good news' from her. Delete this thread.

Great way to start a marriage!

As I'm sure you know, for the healthy development of a baby pregnant mothers should avoid things like alcohol, tobacco, drugs, certain prescription medication etc. But of course she doesn't know that she's pregnant so....

This just adds to the complication of the situation. Tell her soon

Thanks. The only one of those we use/take is alcohol. We're off to a wedding tonight but she's driving as I can't drive her car here. Tomorrow will be a nice relaxed day and we'll sit down and talk

Good call Victor. Whilst my post was semi serious, I am sorry I did not think of this.

Hope all works out well OP

Although it was a silly thing to do...damage control would dictate you wait until she misses her next period then just say "maybe we should check again" or just wait a week or so and being up the fact that she is late coming on still and tackle it that way. Have her take another test and wow would you Adam and Eve it! she is pregnant!

The ones that state they "can" detect pregnancy before a missed period still have a higher chance of a false negative before the missed period and this is clearly explained in the instructions. So clearly the last one was negative...as far as she is concerned!

Good luck!

Maybe she already did her own test and knows the result?
I recon this is a different sort of test, and you failed!

Just curious, but was that a suggestion to get her drunk and throw her down the stairs to get rid of it, or doing that to yourself to get you out of the pickle?

This thought crossed my mind too

Take 'em up the transom handsome, you'll find no babbers there!

What an odd way to end a relationship. Ah well, I'm sure you young'ens know what you're doing.

I was wondering that.
