Go buy the digital "Pregant / Not Pregnant" test. The other ones are very often misleading, but the digital ones are great. I had the same problem. Good luck!

Check out www.peeonastick.com.
Sounds funny, I know, but it's a great site with real examples (photos) of postivie and negative tests, and help determining what's what.

Good luck!

Sounds like it could be a evaproated line. EPT's are famous for the blue dye to leak like that. Go to the dollar store & buy a test from there. Good luck! I hope you get whatever answer u are looking for

Can you go to your GYN and get a blood test? Otherwise I think their are clinics that you can go to for small or no copay. If you think you are possibly pregnant I would act as though you are, eat right, take some prenatal's and don't drink or smoke.
Congrats if you are:)

I think it means the test is defective. I would buy another test.

This would cost a little more but I would skip over all the other tests and go for a digital one. I got an iffy answer on a regular test - more negative than positive but, after another week of not getting my period, I bought a digital test (one that writes out the words "Pregnant" or "Not Pregnant") and I most definitely was pregnant. Good luck!

Are they dark lines? Try taking another test and if you think you may be pregnant contact an OBGYN and ask them to give you a blood test.

Seriously, the dollar tree stores have the BEST tests! The expensive tests said that I wasn't prego, but the dollar ones did. Went to the doc and had it confirmed. I'm pregnant! Go buy 2 or 3 and see what they say.
