Q: How Soon?

How soon would you start to show if you were pregnant? Just wondering, out of curiosity...Since one of my teachers is 4 months pregnant and doesn't even look like it.

Thanks.

Oh...Heck...I'm not pregnant...I just thought I was.

But I have a question...If I took a pregnancy test while I had a slight urinary bladder infection, would that tamper with the results of the test?

Hi,
im no expert but I dont think it should matter since home preg test react to the level of hormones in you urine. So hormones would be there either way infection or not... (i could be wrong Smile ) best time to take it though is in the morning. When did you take it? That can affect the accuracy.

Jen I don't think she's fake. She was wondering when you would start to show because her teacher is 4 months pregnant. And she asked if a having a bladder infection would affect the results of a hpt. I guess she thought she was pregnant while she had an ifection or something. I dunno. She didn't really say anything to make me think she's fake though.

Yeah, i'm not fake. I can see how you would be confused by the thread though...Guess I didn't make it clear enough that my teacher was the one that was pregnant.

But feel free to answer my second question(about taking a pregnancy test during a bladder infection) if you feel up to it.

Thanks a lot.
