Positive or Negative Pregnancy Test??

I took a pregnancy test this afternoon.  Immediately, the negative line showed up in the control window. I noticed that towards the top of the circular control window, there were 3 little dots in the shape of a very small triangle. They were off center. the vertical line that would show up if i was pregnant would typically go straight down the middle, but these dots weren't in the center...they were a little to the right. You can hardly see them, but they're there. I'm not sure if that means it detected a little bit of a pregnancy hormone or if it's just a flaw in the test. I'm a little nervous...I never knew that small dots could drive someone this insane =(

EPT right???? It's negative. basically this happens with the majority of EPT brand tests. it's happened every time I took one. If you look on my profile you'll see a pic of the test I took with TJ, ept brand and they were both positive... DEFINITELY positive.

are you late???

I'd suggest taking a Digital. Like Clear Blue when your around 3 days to a week late.

I've had a test show up like that more than once. It was a negative for me. But the line that shows up for a positive isn't necessarily directly centered. I agree with worriedbabe, I'd rest again, and in the morning.

sounds odd unless the test was supposed to show dots. i'd test again.
