How Soon?
Posted: 10-08-04 11:21am

My last period was august 24th and I haven't had a period since then. I've had unprotected sex for the last six months and havent gotten pregnant yet. This time i've skipped the month of september and have yet to get my period. I took a hpt on october 2nd and on the 6th. They both came out negative. I've talked to my mom about this and she says to wait another couple of weeks then go see a doctor. If i'm already 2 weeks late wouldn't I get an accurate reading though? How long did any of you have to wait until you found out?

My first pregnancyi waited and tested a month after my af and got a bfp
than my second pregnancy I tested 4 days sooner and got a bfp it really depends on the woman and its not unusual to miss a period every now and than my twin sister went a whole year without one and she wasnt pregnant.

Yeah you'd def be accurate. Most pregnancy tests are accurate up to 4 days _before_ you miss your first period. If you're getting negatives this late, chances of you being pregnant are very slim. If it makes you feel better, have a doc give you a blood test. But i'm sure it will come out neg too.
