FALSE POSITIVE NIGHT NURSE?

Please help - i have a 3 month old son
randomly did a pregnancy test yesterday i found clearing out the bathroom cabinet while husband away it came back POSITIVE. first response. my period is not clockwork but would be due on mon/tues i guess.
we had unprotected sex ONCE. we are getting married on thursday, my husband gets back on tues.
i worked out if i am pregnant i would only be 3 weeks, and was out drinking heavily last weekened at my nephews christening hwen i would have been 2 weeks pregnant.
i was SO excited about having a wedding, ocnnecting wiht husband, going on honeymoon having a cocktail on beach etc.
i also need to return to wokr in NOVEMBER.
so everything is up in the air.

i am so scared - too scared to do another test. wedding is THURSDAY. i have been having LOADS of caffeine as mentally planning the wedding. i want ot feel like a bride and have champagne and relax. i had bad PND with my son, and am finally the other side of that and looking forward to kickin back etc.
could it be night nurse? i took it until WEDS i think of last week, so stopped weds before the sat i took the test, then read it can cause false positives?

do i wait ot see if period comes before wedding?
do i tell partner? risk is it will ruin wedidng for him, worrying about money, or worse he may go mad on the beers thorugh the stress.
do i not tell partner, and retest and deal with the information and tell him after wedding and just have 1 glass of champagne?
do i not re test. deal with it after wedding. just carry on as normal and assume it is not positive, and deal with it after wedding?

please please help. i feel so terrible. i feel guilty to my son as i wont be much of a mother to him with a second. i feel guilty to my husband on financial pressur.e and mostly i feel SO guilty to my unborn child. if it is in there. as i am already wishing a little bit i hadnt got into this silly mess...

PLEASE hlpe. anyone had a false positive from night nursE?

I would doubt it's night nurse. If you've had unprotected sex and a positive pregnancy test the most likely explanation is that you are pregnant.

I don't think keeping it from him is a great way to start married life!!
You are in this together, you will manage just fine and your ds won't suffer lifelong trauma because he is getting a sibling so soon. .
Tell your dp when he gets back, why should it put a damper on your wedding?
Another reason to enjoy your special day!!

Never had or heard of a false positive on night nurse. I think if you had unprotected sex at a time when you're famously very fertile, odds on your pregnant. You do need to take another test and tell your fiancé I'm afraid.
