Is it true that the $4 pregnancy tests
dont work at well as the ones around $20?
My mom told me today that the $4 ones are
least likely to work and its pry not right
since I havent gottan my period,which is
very unusual. So..Yea shes taken me to
doc next week sometime..Cant wait to find
out. Kevin still doesnt know.....I really
dont wanna tell him I might be if im
not....Even tho I have this feeling I am
cuz ive never been so tired all the time
and spotted and had cramps and then no
period....Weird

I have no idea, if you wanna make your
money worth it, take a blood test.

Yeah definitely get a blood test. You can
take a bajillion urine tests and they can
all be negatives, so why not make it
useful?

Unfortunately - with hpts as well as other
things you get what you pay for. The
more expensive the test the more sensitive
it's gonns be to the level of hcg in your
system. If you really want to good
answer wait till the day of your missed
period and test with a very sensitive test
(yes the expensive ones which you can use
up to 4 days before a missed period), and
use your first pee of the morning to test.
This should give you an accurate result
(they're supposed to be like 99% if used
in the morning and on the day of the
missed period or later)

Test Again Today Posted: 11-01-04 23:22pm
I took another test at birthright and it
came out to be negative. The lady told
me that I really should take the test with
morning urine. I wonder if it came out
negative because right when I went in I
drank some diet mt. Dew quick so I could
actually pee...Hmmm...Well.. I still
havent had my period yet! And today is
the 1st and it was due on the 25th and
never been late and I havent been under a
lot of stress or ne thing!!! I just
havent been feeling good...Just crampin a
lil right now..Not even much at all tho
and I feel like im gonna throw up or
somethin. Im still having backaches and
these dang headaches. And my
boyfriend just broke up with me because I
told him I had to take a pregnancy test
cuz I think I might be pregnant!!! I
cant believe him! But he wouldnt be the
dad tho....But he doesnt know that...You'd
think that a 22 yr. Old wouldnt freak
out like that.....But he said im not happy
and blah blah blah right after I told
him.....He text msged me that after I told
him on cell phone. The guy who would
be the dad doesnt know right now cuz he is
in the hospital...He the one with the
chrones disease... idk what to do
