Okay so I am late and had very very light spotting ever since the day of my suppossed period...(Thursday the 17th). So today I took some pregnancy tests. I used two digital ones (Clear Blue and E.P.T. Certainty) and Fact Plus (non digital with the plus minus.. i did two of them at the same time cuz i thought maybe i messed up the first one)...lastly i did a Rite Aid cassette brand....
Okay the first four were positive....definitely but the Rite Aid one was a faint line but you could see it. But still it was fainter than the other ones that used dyes. Could these be false positives? I just find it hard to believe I am pregnant cuz I only had sex one time this past month (it was near ovulation but none the less it was still one freaking time). Has anybody ever experienced false positives with these tests?

it's possible, but you're pregnant. the test work because the pick of a hormone variant that is only present when you are pregnant. no matter how faint the line is, it's still a line.

With my second child, I did a home pregnancy test. I had a very faint line...like you almost couldn't see it. When I went to my doctor he said that anyline...faint or not was a positive because that means the test did detect the pregnancy hormone just maybe not a lot of it. I would say you are pregnant and to see your doc! Congratulations

I have never been pregnant and never seen a test turn up positive falsely. You know it only takes one time to get pregnant. My mom got pregnant the first time she had sex! And especially since you were near ovulation. I'm not positive but I've never seen it happen.

You are definatly pregnant. There would not be that many false positives. The pregancy test are very accurate. It only took me ONE time as well. Sperm lives in you up to 5 days so even if you only had sex once you had sperm in you for longer than just one day. Get a hold of you Doc and congrats, because your pregant:) Hope you are in good spirits abou this! Good luck!

You are pregnant. I took five tests in one day because that second line was SOOO light...I just couldn't believe it could be THAT light and faint and still be positive. Congratulations! It's going to be fine.

its plausible, some human beings dont discover out they're pregnant till a minimum of 6 weeks lengthy gone it quite is oftentimes at the same time as youre about 2 weeks overdue. retest in some days if its nevertheless unfavourable then bypass on your physician and get a blood try carried out.

You're pregnant, accept it. It only takes one time.

I could see why you would take 2 tests to be sure, but 4 is a little extreme. Your next step is to go see a doctor and start taking prenatal vitamins.

The only way a pregnancy test will be wrong if it says you're not pregnant, in my experience.

there are rarely false positives
false negatives are possible if the test is taken early on

It is very rare to have one False positive pregnancy test...pretty much immposible to have that many...I would def. go to your ob/gyn to start prenatal care...It only takes one drop of semen to get you pregnant....and your cycle was prob miscalculated....our bodys are unpredictable....good luck to you!!!!
