I think you should retest with first morning urine. I am pregnant and I have been having dull cramping and lower back pains and peeing a whole lot so you seem to have the same symptoms I have so just test again. You can even get blood work done by your doctor! Hopefully you are preggers!

I got a faint positive followed by a negative last month.  I could have been a chemical pregnancy or your urine wasn't concentrated enough.   Test again in the AM.  happy thoughts

I would re-test when your period is due. It is easy to mistake evaporation lines for faint positives (I've done it myself). Definitely retest! Hopefully you are pregnant!

LOL! Well I think that may be the problem! Ashiepooh is right! You do have at wait at least 4 hrs until enough of the horomone has built up in your urine! And seeing that it had only been an hour in between, it sounds like that is what happened! If you can't hold it for 4 hours during the day, take it in the morning when you first wake up! You should have a few hours worth of urine by then.... LOL Good Luck!***

thats true, it had been about an hour from the last time i peed to when i tested, but waiting 4 hours is going to be kinda tough, i have been peeing like every hour or so lately.lol... i even get up in the middle of the night to go...

If you didn't wait 4 hours in between the time you tested and the last time you had pee'd there could just not be enough hcg build to get your positive!  So maybe try testing again, just make sure there is 4 hours between the time you go and the time you test!

I am so sorry! False positives happen but not very often! You should take another test with first morning urine and see what happens! Or you can go to the doctor and have them do a blood test to confirm the pregnancy! Have you had any bleeding or cramping? Unfortunately it could be a chemical miscarriage! But, don't lose hope yet! Call your doctor and schedule an appt! In the meantime, take another test with first morning urine and see what happens. Good Luck!****

It is possible to get a false positive because I did. It means that there may be something wrong with the test or you're not pregnant. Test again with first morning urine and see what happens. I hope you get your big fat positive.
