Could I be preg?

I have been unusually tired the past 2 weeks, I am in bed by 8-9pm and can barely drag myself out of bed by 8am to go to work.. I'm even starting to doze off at work here and there.  Last week right before I should have had my cycle, I spotted for a day and half of the next and that was it...  I also took a pregnancy test 4 days ago (dollar store one)  that appeared to be negative but after a couple minutes a very thin blue line showed up over the negative line making it a plus sign.... I didn't really know what to think so I have taken 3 other that have all been negative... I'm thinkin it may have been a false positive, but I am not sure... I am going to the doctor at the end of the week... Could I be pregnant? has

I agree with Scouts comments on trusting that test.  I personally do not trust blue dye tests at all as they tend to produce phantom lines very easily.  I too would get a first response.  As for symptoms?  They aren't a great indicator of pregnancy as so many other things can cause them.  It's certainly possible, but only that test can tell you for certain.  Good luck to you!

idk.  lots of things can make you tired.  You can certainly spot and be pregnant though.  I'm not sure I'd trust the dollar store tests.  Maybe go out and get a First Response and try that....those are really good, imo.  You could have also had a chemical pregnancy....that can cause you to have a positive and then negative.  It's just hard to say from reading someones post.
