This morning I woke up and didn't feel great, I felt tired and nauseous. I went out until about midday came home and something told me to do a pregnancy test, i checked My Flo App and im day 21 of my cycle. My cycles do vary sometimes 28 days sometimes 36 days and it said my period wasn't due for 11 more days the first day of my last period was 18/07 -21/07 (this is a very short period for me. Anyway I done a test and it came up with a very strong positive and it wasn't my first wee of the day and i had already had over a litre of water throughout the day i didnt believe it so I drove to the shop and had more water so that I would need to go the toilet got another test and again I got a positive. I used the brand medisure they're a £1 in my local shop just wondering if this is a false positive surely its too early to tell or has anyone had a similar experience with this brand.
Also just to note me and my partner have been trying for 17 months and i have never had a strong positive like this but a few months ago I had a very faint positive line using this brand and the next morning my period started.

Thats a positive, its very rare to get a false positive that strong. False positives are usually faint line. Congratulations

Looks like it

Is there a chance your last period wasn't a period at all and you could actually be further on than you think? I bled with my first pregnancy at 5 and a half weeks for no reason at all and she's now a very healthy 7 year old. I only ask because that positive is very strong!!!! Congratulations 💜

I agree with pp, it's very unlikely to get a test that strong from a cycle only 21 days long, so I'd assume your last period was not in fact a period, and that you are something like 7 weeks pregnant now. This ties in with the nausea too.

I would want to confirm with a different brand of test though!

I would also keep an eye out for signs of ectopic, just because bleeding is one of the signs. But I'm not saying it's likely (plenty of women bleed innocuously in early pregnancy) - just to be aware.
