Get a blood test: It's hard to say if you had a false positive because it is so early. While most hpts are pretty accurate, some will be inaccurate early on. Since you have missed your period, go to your doctor and get a blood test for hcg. It will be much more sensitive and should not give you a false negative or positive.
