hi,these commercially available urine pregnancy tests are highly sensitive these days. so a positive test means you are pregnant but doesn't confirm a viable pregnancy.it can be positive in case of a viable pregnancy,incomplete abortion,ectopic etc also.the best way to confirm that your pregnancy is viable is to get a ultrasound done. if fetal heart is present then it confirm a normal pregnancy.take care and all the best.
