How long does it take for you to know your
pregnant? Ive heard some people didn't
know till they were 6 months. Can stomach
pains occur when pregant gas ect. Why
would some people need a blood test to
find out if there pregnant. If I am can
you have to little of the hormone in your
pee for the urine test to detect it??

The blood test is an exact way to know if
you are pregnant- sometimes there are
discrepancies with urine tests, etc.
That's why people get a blood test.

Hi, I am in the same boat. I am a few
days late for my period, although I have
had breast tenderness, stomach cramping,
headaches, tiredness, all of which could
be associated with pregnancy or a period.
I took a pee test a few days ago and it
was negative. I was told to wait a few
more weeks before I retested. I was also
told to get a blood test for more
accuracy.

Some people have their period during their
pregnancy where as some poeple dont and
then dont find out their pregnant till
like 6-7 months into it which is just
something I dont get hahah.... But yeah
sometimes you need a blood test because
everyone has different hormone levels that
hpt tests dont always pick up or pick up
wrong
