you get cramps during pregnancy hun its fine,do you have any bleeding?if not dont worry, but you do get implantation bleeding
If you have had spotting and think it might be implantation bleeding you may be paying very close attention to your body. If you are trying to get pregnant, the good news is that early pregnancy symptoms feel very similar to the start of your period. If you are pregnant you may begin to notice symptoms of early pregnancy right around the time your period would normally start and sometimes sooner than that
but if your worried see your DR hun
good luck and congrats

The next step is to stay calm. Lots of women experience some cramping, and I know it can be nerve racking when you've been trying to conceive. Call your doctor's office, tell them you've had a positive home test, and they will order blood work. Please also tell them you are having some cramping. The doc may want to see you and do a quick internal to see if your cervix is closed. Your blood work will give your doc some info too, he'll know if your hormone levels are in an appropriate range. And even though its early, the doctor may order an ultrasound if he needs more info.
Generally, the advice given to moms with your symptoms are to go home, and put your feet up. I had this and bleeding with my 3rd pregnancy, which was shortly after having a miscarriage. I was hysterical. The doctor sent me home, told me nothing but bedrest for a few days, and everything was fine. Try not to worry. Take care of yourself.

If it showed pregnant that you probably are. Home tests test for the level of HCG in your urine. You would only have higher levels if you were pregnant. False positives don't happen often. Congrats and good luck on the baby. By the way Planned Parenthood offers free pregnancy testing and they will give you a proof of pregnancy if you need it for other things.

Call your doctor. Tell them you just had a positive pregnancy test. They'll have you come in to have a blood test to confirm. Let them know about the symptoms you've been having.
Cramping is common with pregnancy. I've had cramping on and off and I'm about 5-6 weeks.
Good luck & congrats!!!!

A false negative is more likely than a false positive(I was going through denial when I found out I was pregnant and a doctor told me that) Some people get cramps when they are pregnant, but my pains were a little sharper than my normal period cramps.

the home tests can be faulty but the %age is not very high on a false positive. go to the dr, have them draw blood for a pregnancy test and get checked out. the cramping could also just be that the changes r starting in your body. i would say seeing a dr is a must to ease your mind.................good luck

You can get a false positive. You can also get cramps, its called implantation. You best bet is to get a blood test to confirm you are pregnant. Good luck

Schedule a Dr.'s appt ASAP. You will feel a sense of relief once you TRULY know one way or the other. It's stressful not knowing.
