False Negative?

Ok, so its been about a month since I last had sex and I also had my period which ended last week. All of a sudden yesterday morning I woke up and was bleeding a little, not much and then I was spotting throughout the day. I talked to my sister and she told me she had her period with her son for the beginning 3 months and wanted me to take a pregnancy test, which I thought was crazy. So reluctantly I took one this morning when I woke up. I bought an EPT that has a control box and then a slash for negative and a plus sign for positive. After I peed I waited....a dark line showed up in the control box and then a very light barely seeable line showed up for a positive. What does this mean? I don't think I could be pregnant except I've been cramping pretty bad, bloated, sore bbs, and just feeling like my period is here. Has anybody encountered a faint negative before?

Take another test of a different brand, but sounds like a + to me. GL getting the answer you want.
