For the past 4 days I have been having
really weird symptoms. My period is
supposed to start today or tomorrow, and 4
days ago my breast started to hurt and
they haven't stopped. Yesterday I had to
use the bathroom more then usual and there
was a light colored blood in the urine.
After I am done using the bathroom, it
almost feels like a tingling sensation,
and its actually a lot of urine coming
out. Today is the 5th day and I am dizzy
this morning. I took a pregnancy test
yesterday and it came out negative, but I
also drank a half a gallon of cranberry
juice about 3 hours before I took the
test. Could that affect the results?
Can anyone give me advice.

Everytime you drink something it blocks
the test. Because you arent due yet for a
period its too early to tell. You should
wait a few more days and take a test. In
the morning, and dont drink anything. You
dont usually feel any symptoms until about
3-4 weeks after your period was late, so
it might be in your head. Take another
test if your period doesnt come.

Girl go to the doctor's you might hav a
urinary tract infection. That is a bad
thing. It can go up to your kidneys and
if you are pregnant that is not good for
the baby. I am not trying to scare you.
Blood in urine is not a good thing go get
checked out.

Unsure of Symptoms Posted: 09-22-03 23:31pm
Dear forever dreaming,
i'm not sure drinking anything can
affect your pregnancy test, read the
instructions on your test it will tell you
which things effect the test. As for
waiting to test, it should also tell you
in the instructions, the ones we use here
in australia say you can use them 3 days
prior to your period being due. As for
not having symptoms 3 - 4 weeks after your
period is due I had sore boobs 1 - 2 weeks
after conception, 3 - 4 weeks getting
tired, and 6 weeks morning sickness. I
guess we are all different and we will all
get different symptoms with different
pregnancies. God knows my first onewas
completely different from this one.
Ps. Sorry nikki...
Regards,
.::suzy::.

The test are more accurate in the morning
because the levels are more concentrated
then however the levels should still be
high enough during the day even after
drinking to show up as a positive (all of
mine were negative until I went to the
doctor however but this was just me).
Other than fatigue I didn't experience any
symptoms until my 7-8th week. By the 9th
week I had horrible "morning" sickness (i
usually got it mid afternoon)
let us know how it goes!

I am going to take another pregnancy test,
because my breasts have been swollen and
sore for over a week now. There is no
longer blood in my urine, it happened for
one day. I still have to urinate more
then usual, some days better then others.
Today I have been crying over
everything. If some one looks at me the
wrong way I bust into tears. I think I
am just stressing my self out.
Yesterday I woke up in the middle of the
night wanting peaches. My first day of
my last period was on the 22nd. My
nipples are looking bigger and different.
Could all these symptoms be in my head?
Thank you for all the advice.

Ok well actually if drinking alot of
fluids can block out a drug test and only
show up fluids not urine containing drugs,
why cant it block out the preg.
Hormone? Its ok if it doesnt. I only
say this is because drinking alot of
fluids can mess up a drug test for a
probation officer to tell if someone is
doing drugs. And if you drink alot, the
fluids will block out the preg. Hormone
too.
Suzy your smart and nice anyways!!!!!

I read on the home preg. Test that
drinking a lot of fluids can/does affect
the test. It dilutes the hgc levels in
your urine. To determine a pregnancy, you
are told to take in the morning. I drank
a lot of fluids before I took my test and
it came up negative. I have yet to take
another one, but after I took it and saw
the negative I read the instructions. It
tells you specifically not to drink fluids
within 5 hours of your testing. It does
dilute the hormone efficiency dectors of
the test.

They didn't do a blood test or any test on
me. They said that since the first day of
my last period was on the 22nd, its too
soon to tell if I am or not. So I have
to go back on the 6th, and on the 16th for
a full internal exam
