If a home pregnancy test comes out
positive can it ever be wrong?? I took
one in the beginning of april and
yesterday april 5th I started bleeding a
little with cramps. I haven't yet been to
the doctor to make sure the test was right
but I was just wondering if this might be
really bad.

The chances are slim, but it can happen.
I would suggest getting to a dr and have
them check you out and run a test, blood
preferably!! Good luck hun. :)

It your test came out positive then
chances are you are pregnant. Its very
rare that positives are wrong.

Yeah, it is usually the negative that are
wrong. I did have a friend once though
that took a pregnancy test at family
planning, it came out positive and she
wasn't pregnant. She went for a couple
of weeks believing she was, but she
wasn't. At the same time, my other
friend kept going in and kept getting
negatives. She was over 3 months
pregnant before she ever found out she
really was pregnant, and this was with the
blood test. Her hpt's (even the doctor
strength ones) came out negative the whole
time.
There is also a psychological thing where
you convince yourself you are pregnant,
get all symptoms (even lactating) but you
aren't pregnant. It's not very common
though.
I agree with the others. I would get to
the doctor as soon as you can to confirm.
You can get cramps and bleeding even if
you are pregnant, so even if you feel like
you got your period, you still may be
pregnant. Good luck hun!
