It is possible yes, I would either go to a doctors office and get a real pregnancy test done, or at the least take another home test in a week or two.

It could very well be a false positive. All you need to do is go to your doctor, they will do another test on you. If it will make you feel better, ask for a blood test, is detects the pregnancy hormone better than urine.

It's possible that it could be wrong. Every one else is right, you should take another test and go to the doctor.

it is slightly possible, but not likely

false negatives happen alot, false positives RARELY

until you get to the doctor and confirm it live like you are pregnant, no drinking alcohol, no drugs, (not that you do those things just in case though)

Actually it happens more than most people think. I've suffered a false positive, I've had friends suffer a false positive. My doctor had even told me that if you take, say, 10 urine tests, more than likely half of those would turn out positive. Blood tests are more likely to me accurate.. But, what it comes down to is still going to the dr, and getting some sort of test done

Set up a dr.s appointment. False/possitive Possitive/false - no matter right now. The thing you need to do to "act pregnant" till you know for certain - no drugs, alcohol, smoking. Take prenatals and/or mulivitamins, stay away from 2nd hand smoke and start eating healthy - ONLY 200-500 calories more than what you usually eat. You're not really eating for two yet - you just need "more". Good luck and keep us posted!
