i had to have an amnio and it came back negative. It was really scary but you will be ok. i recommend not going by yourself. i threw up afterwards from nerves and cried the whole way home. but i was fine just scared. You will be fine and i hope that your baby is healthy

Alyssa, I think there are a lot fo reasons why you get false positives on the AFP. If you are off by even a little on your LMP is one reason I know of, and I know there are way more. I know of only 2 people who have had false positives, and their babes were fine. I know it's easy to say, but as you say yourself, there isn't anything that can be done about it right now so try to to stress about it so much if possible. Good luck!
