digital verses the other

iam not late but i know when and if i concived. I started going to the batroom more and iam tired more easly. I took a test( not digital) it was a early result test and i see a faint line but you can clearly see it. my sister took the same test out of the same box and you cant see nothing on hers. I never missed a period yet but it is expected in four days. i took a digital and it was neg. But i bought anoher box of a different brand and i got the same thing a very faint line and agian my sister took the other one out of that same box/brand and nothing at all appeared. *sigh* i dont know what to  think. you do you think?

Digital tests have a higher sensitivity level, so its harder to get a positive. Where dye tests can pick up a "faint" line. On digital, they can't give you a faint "yes" or "pregnant" either way, faint or not faint, false positives are EXTREMELY rare! I'd say you're pregnant just very early.

A line, even if its faint is a positive, the only problem with testing that early is that your period may still come and you have what is called a chemical pregnancy. Treat yourself as if you are pregnant (because you are :) ) and see what happens around the time your period is due

I think that you should wait your 4 days and take the other digital test. Some tests are more sensitive then others. If you got 2 faint positives then they are positive, you are just early.
