I just stop birth control on the 24th of march and my husband wants to have another child now. I been sick to my stomach some days and i just came off my period on the 1st of april. I went to the doctore for sever stomach pains and they did a blood test and said I wasnt Pregnant. Is it to early to detect HCG in my blood. According to my doctor my most fertile days ways on the 10th -13th of april. Do you think i still could be. Cause it only been 3-6 days since that time.

It wouldn't pick anything up until after implantation, which could be anywhere from 6-12 days after ovulation. It's best to wait for your period to be late and then take a test. Good luck!
