    Six pregnancy tests; 4 VERY faint positives, 2 negatives? Help!
    I have taken six pregnancy test over the last week. The first two showed up a very very faint blue line (forming a +) but only after the first ten minutes, but definitely before 30 minutes. Took two different brand test over the next two days, both came back two very very faint pink lines; to the point where you have to look to find it, but the positive line is definitely there. I took two of the same double line pregnancy tests the last two days and neither one of them had a line whatsoever. I've been going to the bathroom more frequently, having one sided lower stomach pains, cramping, my back has been hurting and I feel like I can't get enough sleep. I've made an appointment later on this week with an OB but wondering if this has happened to anyone else/anyone have any advice? Thanks!

    A false negative is very common, a false positive is not.

    I will assume you are taking all of the tests at the same time of the day, ** very first thing in the morning with the firs urine of the day, and not taking them all different times, early that will get more false results.

    I will also assume you have already missed a period which is why you are testing

    Actually, no. I don't have regular periods & I never have. I've had maybe 2 periods in the last 10 months, which was when I quit going for my depo shot. I'm just confused as to why I would get 4 very faint positives and then two negatives.
