A false negative can happen when the levels of hCG (the pregnancy hormone) aren't high in your body. That could mean it's too early to take the test, or you aren't pregnant.
False positives happen when the hCG level is higher than normal -- which doesn't necessarily mean you're pregnant.
When did you take the first test? Even though it says a test can be taken up to 4 days before your missed period, that's not necessarily true. Wait until either:
1] A week after you took the first test, or
2] Your period is 5 or so days late.
That way, if you are pregnant, you're more likely to have a high enough amount of hCG in your system.
Also, to get a higher level of hCG, use your first morning urine -- as in, the very first time you pee in the morning. That's when the hormone is the most concentrated.
If you don't get your period within 3 weeks of its normal time, and you're still concerned, go to a gynocologist to get a blood test. They tend to be more conclusive.
