Did you take one? When? What did you go in to the doctor for? -- the test or something else?
Has anyone taken a blood pregnancy test before getting a home pregnancy test? When?
I am 6 days late (CD 32 of my 26 day cycle). I'm never late, well maybe a day--but not 6! I just "feel pregnant", I suppose that's hard to explain. But I have yet to get a positive home pregnancy test. But, with my son, I didn't get a positive test until I was 10 days late.
Okay, so I had resigned to wait it out...but today around mid-day, I spotted. It was just a very little bit of blood. It was pink and only on the tissue. It's gone now. I don't know if I should feel silly (because I was never pregnant), sad (because maybe I'm miscarrying), or happy (because I'm expecting-although we weren't trying). I'm just so worried now.
I really want to get a blood pregnancy test, but I know nothing about them. I used a midwife for my son and plan to do that again should we be pregnant. I wouldn't call my midwife for a blood test though, because she is 2 hours away (and would probably refer me to an ob for testing anyway). I'd have to call my gyn (who is also an ob), but then if I was pregnant would have to explain that I didn't plan to use his services as an ob. Maybe I'm just being over-emotional
Also, since it's Saturday and the office won't open till Monday...I'd have plenty of time to be sure it wasn't just the start of a late period. My periods typically turn on like a faucet, so this would be very unusual.
