    Come back in a week and will test again? I can't wait
    Well it's been a while since I have asked a question so here we go, I have been trying to conceive with my husband again after our m/c. My last period was on August 25 and my cycles are around 30 days each month, we had intercourse on a regular bases ( every 2 days) for the past 2 weeks. This past week I have been extra tried not feeling the best, weight again (big time), and feeling moody. I went to the doctor and he said that's not a flu or a bug so come back in a week and will test for pregnancy. I don't want to wait another week, that's like taking a child into a candy store and saying you can't eat it. So could I be pregnant? Or is it to early to tell?

    If it weren't too early to tell, then your doctor would not have told you to come back next week.

    When was your last period?

    Even if you are pregnant you most likely wouldn't have any symptoms until you are 6 weeks along or more. I know the wait is horrible, but I know you can stick it out. Most women won't get a positive on a hpt until 7 days late of your period or more. Try to stay relaxed and keep yourself busy, and with any luck you'll be back at the doc's in a week!

    If the first day of your last menstrual period was the 25th of August, and on average your cycle is 30 days, that would put you at only 3 weeks pregnant, if you are indeed pregnant. At this point, most tests will not be accurate enough to detect. It makes sense that he would say to wait another week, for this very reason. If you can't wait, and you are going to take a test before then anyway, I would suggest that you take a qualatative blood test at your local hospital, its not much more expensive then a hpt, yet MORE accurate.however, keep in mind, that if you are pregnant, yet your levels of hcg are not high enough yet because you took the test too early, then you will get a negative result. Its best to wait, but if you can't, get the blood test.

    LifeSign1 try that test I fyou don't want to wait it may detect that you are pregnant very soon, it can detect as little as 15 mIU/HCG so you can take it early.
