I would ask a different doc and start prenatals if you haven't already. Good luck! -
Erm... you don't get a false positive. I'd be finding a new doctor asap!

Did he do an in office test that came up negative?
-
This... why would he be telling you that?

No such thing as a false positive! -
Actually there are. If you are taking any kind of medicine with progesterone in it it can cause a faint false positive. I've had it happen before. Some pregnancy tests test for hcg and progesterone to provide a positive earlier than the date of your missed period. Testing for both makes them "more sensitive"

What. Ok i got my bfp 3days before af an my doctor admitted otc pregnancy test are better than his office test
I can see why they would wait till after you miss your period -
some tests are faulty. I have had one. I was ticked off.
It's not likely however, so, congrats!
