    When to take a blood test
    Hi all. I am a 25 yr old woman. I think that I could be pregnant but every home test I have taken says negative. I have taken them early but I have been pregnant before so I kind of know by my symptoms that I am pregnant. How soon do you think that I can get a blood test done? Should I wait until I have missed my period or should I just call the doctor and ask for one? Please give me your input?. Thanks
