    How long do I wait?
    Let me tell you my history....
    + pregnancy test May 9......miscarriage May 11 (2007)
    HSG test (can improve fertility) on August 23.
    + OPK August 28.

    I am currently 11 days late, still -- hpt.
    When I got my + with the m/c I did not get it until I was 15 days late.
    I just called my OB and the office said to wait till Friday and test again.

    I thought that the Hcg shows up pretty quickly. Why would it wait until that late to show?
    Then I wonder, would this mean I am at risk for another m/c??
    I'm so confused! :confused: Scared!:( I just want a healthy successful pregnancy! We've been trying for 2 years!! :mad:


    GO COLTS!

    HCG rises different in every women. Generally it doubles every 2 days. You doctor is probably telling you to wait to avoid getting a false negative.

    If you take a test today and its negative, you could wait 2 days and try another HPT, then call your doctor Friday and ask for a blood test.
