Hi Pet,

Pink, red, and brown and on the pad is not spotting.  Spotting would be very light, no pad needed.  It's late for implantation bleeding as well.  Normally that about the week before you're period was due.  Still, you can have some bleeding if you are pregnant so by itself, this doesn't mean you are or aren't.

"Very faint positive" = not positive.  The tests are not designed that way.  They react to the presence of hCG, that's it.  It should be definitive or it is a bad test.  You must follow the directions to the letter.  I'd suggest a different brand of test.  I'm not saying you aren't positive, just that the test isn't reading accurately.

Sometimes testing early the home tests aren't accurate either.  That may be a possibility.  Normally I'd tell you to wait another week but since you're going to the doctors...

Good luck.
