Negative Hpt And Positive Blood?
Posted: 12-10-07 17:16pm

How many women have had a negative hpt and had a positive blood test? Just curious. I had blood drawn today but had a negative urine in the office. I am three weeks late. It took me a week and a half to get a positive urine with my last baby. The doctor said he would call if the result was positive.

It can happen. A blood test picks up the pregnancy hormone in your blood that may not be strong enough in your urine right now.

Happens more than you think. Your blood will contain the smallest amount of the hormone and can be picked up. Your urine doesn't carry it right away, and in smaller amounts.

I haven't heard yet. I wish he was calling either way. I have posted two questions in the last few days and both of them were moved, even from the general pregnancy Q & A section. I wanted to ask the question of those that were all ready pregnant or had had kids and thought that was the best place to ask. I mean really, how would anyone know if I was pregnant? Yet, I see people asking "Am I pregnant?" all over the other boards and they aren't moved. Kind of frustrating. Okay there is another symptom of either pregnancy or pms, easily aggrivated. lol

Thank you for the replies. I appreciate it.
