Okay heres my question......
It woulda been on march 22nd that I had sex 2 times and my boy friend finished in me (were trying to have a baby just so everyone knows heh) and than again on march 25th I was suppose to also get my period on march 25th and it didnt come until march 29th and was only 3 days and its usually last 5 days and it wasnt as heavy as it usually is and I was wondering how long it would take before it would show up on a test whether I was pregnant or not I took a test today and it came back negative :cry: :( but than I thought maybe it was to early to take it if someone could please help me out that would be awsome :)

When did you take the first test? I takes some ppl up to 6 weeks ...Maybe a blood test would be best if you think your pregnant/..

I took a test today but it came up negative and I took it with my first morning urine but it hought maybe it was to early because its only been a week or 2...I was gonna wait until a couple days before my period for this month I figured by then it would show up..... I dont want to take a blood test because im scared to death of needles I hate them :(

Well if you wait a few weeks (ie when your next period is due) then it should show up if you're pregnant...
But if you're ttc..Then you're going to have to get lots of needles when you're pregnant..To test for different things, if you want an epidural and all that...So be warned lol
