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
