    I am 18 and believe I maybe pregnant. I have taken multiple at home tests
    I am 18 and believe I maybe pregnant. I have taken mulptile at home tests and they all came up negative. I am showing signs of being pregnant. I have gotten sick and now my monthly period has only been for two days with moderate bleeding and now today its barely even bleeding more like spotting. Could I possibly be pregnant

    Take the pregnancy test that are $13+ don't buy the cheap ones but keep in mind you could have food poisining, or also that pregnant woman can have their periods too.

    Actually you don't have a regular period while pregnant as a period involves release of an egg and shedding of the uterine lining. The uterine lining cannot be shed if a woman is pregnant.

    Now, there are women who do bleed during pregnancy, but it's not as common as one would think.

    The best thing you can do would be to have a blood test done at the doctor's office.

    Correction on what I said before; You can have your period while pregnancy though, but it is rare.

    I have taken the first response and I was told by my doctor they are the best to take but my sister had taken one the day of her wedding and it said negative... then she went to the doctors and hd a blood test saying she was 3 months pregnant... her wedding was only 2 months before. So I am very uneasy about at home tests... I will contact my doctor to get a blood test thanks for the advice

    J_9 Thanks for the advice... I am just kind of nervous about the at home test because my sister had taken one and was 3 months pregnant before the doctirs had evn thought she was pregnant... ER had to do a blood test to tell her. And I am pretty sure food poisoning doesn't last for a month.

    No, food poisoning doesn't alst for a month.

    When taking the HPT be sure to use first morning urine and follow the time limit on the box exactly.
