I'm hoping to get some good info from
everyone. I am now officially 2 weeks
late for my period. I had the weirdest
period last month, 3 days of a lil bit of
spotting each morning and that was it....
Well that was in may. My periods are
usually the last of the month. I'm going
nuts until I can get into my doctors on
the 19th for a blood test to find out if
i'm pregnant or not.
I've had some weird cramping here n there,
i'm always tired, some back aches, a weird
discharge, my appetite has definetly grown
some. I don't know what to think.
There's a chance I am pregnant. I took 2
home tests the end of may which were
negative, but it may have been too soon to
tell. So now in a week I go to my
doctors and find out for sure.
Question... Has anyone went to planned
parenthood for a pregnancy test or a blood
pregnancy test at that? I'm curious how
much they may charge for one there or if
they are free. They're open late
tomorrow, so I could swing in after work
for a test, but i'm not sure how it works
there.
Thanks~

Hey there,
have some of the same symptoms as you, but
I have been barely spotting for the last
few months. Id go see a doctor if I had
insurance, but I am between jobs at the
moment, any ways, your question...
Planned parenthood does free urine tests,
and sometimes they do free ultrasounds, to
those who need it. Its best to ask em
about the ultrasound, but the urnine pg
test is totally free, just go in, sighn
your name, and take the test. Hope this
helps!_liz

What? R u sure? I have known many people
to go and get the test for free...You dont
have to even supply any info but your
name. Did they give you a blood test or
something? The urine test is supposed to
be free, if it wasnt, you got jipped, and
you should report those people.

It was a urin test, I just said I needed a
test to see if I was really pregnant.
They said it was $56 lol... I am over 18
though, the planned parenthood atleast
here stops giving things for free after
someone turns 18.
