UPDATE: OB NURSE SAID TEST SHOULD BE POSITIVE IF I WERE PREGNANT! CONFUSED

Hey Ladies I hope everyone had a awesome 4th!

I am still not sure what the deal is with my period, I had a nurse form my OB call me and say this could be normal since we went on vacation and there could have been stress and etc. Here is a little recap!
   My period was VERY late in May and started on the 29th.
In June I started having brown spotting on the 30th so I was like ok here she comes but it was just brown all day like old blood. Then JULY 1ST it was still brown but very light.ON JULY 2ND I put a pad on just in case and in the afternoon there was just a little red blood not much at and I wiped twice and it was gone and it went back to brown again, my period is usually very very heavy. I have never had a light period before. On JULY 3RD I had pink spotting mixed in with brown, on JULY 4TH I had cramping and clear discharge like I am getting ready to ovulate and on the 5th it was the same thing but the discharge had got lighter. I am even cramping today, the nurse told me that it could be implanantion and I told her I did a preggo test yesterday and it was negative and she said it should be positive if I were preggo but they will check me out this THURSDAY. Should I just ignore this and  say I had my period? DH and I are still TTC# 2 just without the actual TRYING part lol. I dont know what to think

I called the customer service number on the box for the equate and they lady said that as long as the line showed up in the round area no matter how light as long as it can be seen and it was within 10 mins then they consider that a positive so lets hope she is right I have a app thursday with my OB just to make sure everything is ok pregnant or not Thanks

Im having the same sort of issue. The last 2 "periods" were both 4 days late and I only had it for 2 days. It was regular amount of bleeding, not so much tissue. It stopped before I went back to the birth control (nuvaring). Ive been having lots of spotting around my ovulation time, as well as right before and right after my period. I took a pregnancy test (I think it was the first response knock off) at day 3ish both times I was late and they were both negative. My mom thinks Im pregnant (she didnt know that I was completely off bc for 5 months and never got pregnant so I doubt now that Im on birth control, I am pregnant). I am going to the doctor tomorrow for a pap and Im goign to ask about whats going on and possibly suggest a blood test.

I took a Equate knock off of the First Response this morning and set it to the side,
I went back and checked on it and there was a very faint blue line this was before the 2 min window. So I was like no way I have heard some mixed reviews on these tests that they give false positives. So I picked up the test that I did yesterday and looked at it and it had a faint line as well I have taken these tests before when I thought I was preggo in the past and I never seen the second line this is the first on these tests for me. So I peed in a cup and went to get something to eat and go to WALMART and buy some REAL FIRST RESPONSE TEST lol when I got home I used a dollar tree test on the pee that kept in a cup and it was negative. So I peed in another cup and used the First Response
and it was negative but I did eat and drink before I took the FIRST RESPONSE big no no I know . So now I am just going to use the first response in the morning with my FMU and see how that goes.
