    I would wait closer to the first week of February, maybe the 3rd or 4th. Most pregnancy tests detect a specific hormone in the urine and require a specific amount before they turn positive. Your body slowly start to produce this hormone, and thus discard it into your urine, as your pregnancy starts and the production will continue the further into it you go. If you test too early then you will a false negative because there wasn't enough hormone is turn the detector positive.

    Good luck.

    Well I finally called my doctor I have to get blood test done tomorrow is it possible that I could get a false negative or is that test 100% accurate and if it does come up negative should I just brush all the feelings I been having and talk to my family doctor about everything

    You can consider the blood test accurate at this stage. If you are pregnant, it would be extremely unlikely for it not to show up as a blood test (quantitative) would check for an actual amount of hcg... a hormone associated with pregnancy. At this stage in a pregnancy, you would be well over the baseline amount.
    Regardless of the results, a chat with your doctor will ease your mind.

    I would go to your primary care physician now. There has to be something else going on.

    Did you diiscuss ANY of that with your doctor when you went to get the blood test done? What did they tell you? If you didn't, why didn't you?

    Relax and see what your doctors say. Why drive yourself nuts worrying about everything?
