If the bleeding happened to be associated with an early pregnancy the home test should have been positive, so there is a very low level of concern. You can repeat the test in a week or have her see her doctor for a blood test if you want to be even more certain.

Conception occurs within day or so of the sex. It takes about 3 weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG for a positive pregnancy test. Blood test may be done a day after a missed period. Home pregnancy tests should be done 4-5 days after the missed period. If the result is negative repeat the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow instructions for the test carefully.
