Jamila - I think it depends on what type of HPT you used to test because they have different sensitivity levels. So if your HCG levels are not high enough for the HPT that you used, it will not show a positive result. I have posted some common HPT below. You can look yours up and see if you used the most sensitive test or one that measures higher HCG levels. Obviously, you want the more sensitive test at your point following your transfer.

Angela is right. These HPTs cannot be trusted at these low levels.

At this stage, a positive is a positive, but a negative just means try again in a few days.

Thank you guys, I used first REsponse 6 days before missing periode. I am still having some cramping now on my left side of the lower abdomen, and my back hurt, nausea also. I will try the first two type on Angela list and see tomorrow, my Beta is Tuesday a 8 AM so I will keep you update. On my frest cycle on October I got faint positive 10 days post transfer.
Again thank you.
