Ok, so I have a very irregular period. Sometimes my cycle will be 28 days, sometimes 35. I don't chart, I'm not TTC but will be very happy if I turn out pregnant. I've been getting some weird symptoms (swollen boobs, super tired, ect) so I decided to take a test. I got the First Response Early Result 3 pack, the first came out so faint I thought I was crazy so I took another, yet another faint one but a little darker then the first. This was all in the afternoon and within an hr of each other. I had my friend take the 3rd b/c we know shes not pregnant and she had NO faint line, so it can't be from the box. So I went to the store and got another 2 pack, took that 3rd test and yet another faint positive.
I'm very impatient so I went to the ER stating I may be pregnant and I'm having cramping pain (which I am, but its very light pain and comes and goes). He does a urine and blood. Both come back negative. So I sadly go about my way.
This afternoon I decided to take the last one that i had and I have yet ANOTHER faint positive...
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?! A girl I work with went to the same hospital as me and they told her she wasn't pregnant with the urine...as of now she's 5 months pregnant. I'm really hoping it's not a chemical pregnancy. I've been researching this to death b/c the ER doctor had absolutely no answers for me.
My first day of my cycle was January second. I may have ovulated anywhere from the 20th - the 25th but I don't chart out my cycles so I really don't know...
Here is the new information (as of today):
Yesterday around 4pm, I got dark brown spotting, followed by stomach cramps and then some light bleeding. I of course handled this fantastically (aka, I bawled my eyes out thinking I was having my period). But when I stopped to think about it, whenever I first start my period its ALWAYS heavy right from the start. Its only the last day is it light. @ work last night my lower back was very achey and today I was cramping as well, but again it has been very light. I haven't needed to change my pad (just change it for sanitary purposes) and only really see blood when I urinate. When I wipe, the color is a lighter red, not bright red like a period.
Also, I was getting a "fluttering" feeling in my left ovary for a couple weeks now, but since the bleeding has started, that feeling has stopped all together. I've taken a cpl tests since then and they're still VERY faint positive...almost more faint then they were before, but I still see that little line and within the alloted time.
Any ideas?? I don't currently have insurance and would like to wait until I have a better idea of whats going on before going to a doctor. I need answers. Has anyone been through this before or even heard of it??

Additional Details
This may sound gross, but I just wiped after urinating and the blood that was on the tissue was mostly blood, but it was also watery/mucus like...I've never dealt with anything like this before...still the same pale red color. And not much more blood on my pad (if any) that I can tell..

It sounds like you very much are pregnant. Doctors tests are not as sensitive as home pregnancy tests usually, so they can weed out the early chemical pregnancies. Even a beta blood test can be inaccurate the first week, though this is less likely.
Miscarriage bleeding is usually heavy, bright red and with clots, and so, if you do not have this, chances are you are still pregnant.
What happens also, is your home pregnancy tests will become fainter, if you have a miscarriage, so re-test a week later and if you are still getting good lines, you are still pregnant.
It is still possible that you could or are losing it, but see a different doctor and explain the situation. It took me a 3 doctors to find one that agreed I had an early miscarriage. The other two (males) said because their tests said negative, I was never pregnant, and I know this wasn't the case. Finally a doctor agreed, but it is YOUR health. Fight for it, because no one else will.
