Is Light Periods, Bleeding, Cramping And Tender Breasts A Sign Of Pregnancy?

Hello, I am very confused about a possible positive pregnancy test. My husband and I started trying in Aug/Sept. Last Monday, I had a light period, but Tues, Weds, Thurs, I had some regular bleeding (similar to period for about 3 days). I started having some cramping and tender breast for 4 days this week so I took a pregnancy test (x2). I used First Response and it appears positive. It certainly isnt as dark as the control band but it is there. Can you help?

What may have happened is that you actually got pregnant and lost the baby. The positive preganancy test which is faint is a sign that the HCG which gives positve test is gradually being cleared from your system. You should see a doctor to make sure that all the product of conception has been expelled
