You are not pregnant

you shouldent have taken both tests on the same day ...try another test .. they are 99% accurate..you need to use your first morning urine two..Once a woman's period is missed, she does not expect to experience any more bleeding until after her baby is born. Yet vaginal bleeding of some sort during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy is a fairly common occurrence, which may or may not indicate there is a problem.
Vaginal bleeding can range from being very mild spotting or a blood-stained discharge, to quite heavy bleeding. The blood can be bright red (fresh), pink (very light) or brownish in colour (old blood from a few days previous), with the amount and the frequency of the bleeding varying from woman to woman. You may notice a few spots on your underwear, or perhaps on the toilet paper when wiping yourself. If the bleeding is heavy, it may be enough to soak a sanitary pad. Occasionally, there will also be some mild cramping, or period-like pain and/or backache.
NOTE:Be aware that many women experience very mild cramping or period-like pain, backache and sometimes unusual sensations in their lower abdomen during early pregnancy. Unless there is bleeding associated with these sensations or the pain becomes severe, it is usually related to the uterus growing and changing and generally nothing to be concerned about.
Vaginal bleeding occurs in about 30% of all pregnancies. Of these 30% of pregnant women about 50% will continue to go on and have a healthy baby.........you could be haveing implantation bleeding its when the fertilized egg (now called a blastocyst) has completed its travel through the fallopian tube and attaches to the lining of the uterus. The blastocyst is a cluster of tiny cells, smaller than the head of a pin.
Implantation happens on average nine days (6-12 days) after ovulation and fertilization.
Most women have no symptoms on the day of implantation but some report a couple of drops of blood, which can be either red or brown or they have mild cramps. This is also called 'implantation bleeding or cramping.'
That bleeding is usually no more than a couple of drops. If it's like a period, then it's unlikely implantation bleeding.
But most women who become pregnant do not experience typical implantation bleeding, and many women who are not pregnant experience some spotting.

You might have taken the pregnancy test too soon, as it measures hormones in your urine, and there many not have been sufficient to trigger the blue dot or pink line. If you dont have a period this month, take an over-the-counter test again, if it is still negative, I would go to a gynecologist to get yourself checked out.
There could be other reasons for missed periods - like if you are really underweight - or other medical problems you might want to rule out.
Good luck!

Yes, sometimes home tests can be wrong, but just because you are spotting, doesn't mean you are pregnant. (But don't rule it out)
It also depends if your body is changing. My period changed when I got married and when I had spotted and missed a period it was because my hormons was off. It may not be anything but if you still have symptoms see a doctor, have a blood test done for you. Make sure you tell the doctor all your symptoms and when it started. I hope you find out what is going on.

Supposedly negative can be wrong, but positive is always right. Do you have kind of cramps, like when you're about to have your period? Are your breasts sore and your nipples overly sensitive? Those, along with spotting are the common signs of early pregnancy, but wait to be at least 2-3 days behind and take the test again.

Done it a million times! More than likely you aren't pregnant. Your mind can also make you believe you are pregnant when you are not if you really worry about and/or if you want it badly. Stop worring about it. Don't even think about it. If you don't get a normal flow by a week or two after your start date then go to the doctor. Planned Parenthood often gives free pregnancy tests!

test again. stress is a major factor. Eating habits can be as well. And the more worked up you get over not having a period, the less likely you are to have one.
Don't stress, test again, good luck.

If you ever were on BC you can't expect your menses to be normal. Say no to drugs (medications). If you were not on BC ever and you have a very healthy lifestyle of exercise and healthy diet it could be that nothing is wrong. See site below to understand things that they don't teach in school about menstruation.

Those tests are usually pretty good, especially
if you have already missed a period. I took 3
all positive.
