sometimes you may get a test that the dye i think the blue kind will make it look positive when it isnt.

Only false negatives... Because sometimes there's not enough hcg to register on a test [especially on the cheaper "+" "-" ones, like you were probably thinking.. they aren't as sensative to the hormone, so sometimes in early pregnancy it says negative, although you really are pregnant.] but if it is detected, you are pregnant! So you're saying she got a positive and then wasn't pregnant? it's possible she had a very early miscarriage, which would have been her "period" that month, and never even knew it.. it's possible.  However, there are only false negatives.. congratulations. don't let her make you doubtful :P
