To trust or not to trust?

I bought a box of walmart brand blue dye test. I took one Tuesday and it came back neg. and still looks neg. I started spotting then light bleeding Fri so I took the other test Sat morning at it came back faintly +. The digital I took said "not pregnant". So I am getting conflicting results. I don't know what to think. I had a very light strange "period" for 3 days instead of 6 and thought I wasn't pregnant. My so called period was 3 days late and I am like clock work. What do you ladies think? I posted the pictures of both test on my profile, can you look and see what you think? Should I trust the one that came back faintly +? Is it a false + if the one taken Tues. was a true neg.? Any thoughts or answers would be so helpful.

I love FRER! If it was even a faint positive, then I'd say congrats! :D

Sounds like a BFP to me! I would get an hcg blood test from your doctor since you mentioned the spotting to see if your levels are going up properly.  Good luck and congrats!

I had true positives with blue dye tests. They aren't all false positives. And if the FRER came up positive too..then I would go ahead and call for a blood test.

I caved and went an bought a first response, but it was not taken first thing this morning and it is only faintly +. What do you ladies think? Even if I had taken first thing this morning I had to get up and pee quite a few times last night. Can't post a picture batteries were dead when I took the test.

A lot of people hate blue dye tests becuase you can get evap lines that look like false positives.  *I* personally have never had an issue with them.  I only use the equate brand tests and have always had accurate results.

Well talked to DH last night and he said just to wait two weeks and see what happens. That is completely never racking. But I am going to try and wait it out. If both the test had come back + then I probably wounldn't have believe the one that did, but the one I took days before came back neg. I feel pregnant and have been throwing up off and on for the last few days. Would you ladies trust a blue dye test if one days before was neg. and then the next one was +? Just a question since I didn't think I was pregnant I was taking motrin for my headaches. Is it possible that could have caused the bleeding? Spotting has pretty much stopped except when I lift heavy things. Also when I pick up heavy things it causes pain in my tail bone. I want so badly to know for sure but I guess for now I will just act like I am.

A few ppl post on here bout blue dye tests n not one that I hVe read have been correct results meaning alll the positives have been false, at this stage I'd go with the digital, but yeah I agree so far the best test I've used is first response

It can be to early to tell thats why its faint. But anytime you get a positive test. I will put it in a ziplock bag go to the emergency room and they will differently let you know. By doing some tests and all that. Then you want have to worry

I hate blue dye tests, I have gotten false positives with them.  The ones you posted on your profile look positive but I wouldnt trust it.  I would get a first response early, its pink dye and I have never gotten a false positive with it.(5 pregnancies)  Good luck.
