Too early: You should repeat the home test in one week. If there's a pregnancy that's viable, it should be positive.

No: If you had sex since your last period and missed your period by 4-5 days, do a home pregnancy test. If the result is negative repeat the test 4-5 days later unless you get a period by then. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions for the test carefully.

I took 4 hpt came positive . But had brown spotting again 2 weeks later than the first time which was i guess implantation bleeding. What does it mean?

How long after possible implantation bleeding should a hpt show up positive, it's the first bleeding post partum so I have no cycle to go on. And why would the spotting stop for 12 hours then start back up only to be pink and smell like lochia?
