: Hi everyone. I'm new to this board and I have a question for anyone who can help...
: My last period started on Dec. 22 and I normally have a 35 day cycle. Well AF has not visited, but on Jan. 24 I went to the bathroom and had only a smear of blood on the toliet paper.
: This happened twice over the next few days, but I never had anything on my pad.
: I'm a little over a week late and I've taken several home preg. tests and received a negative result. My husband thinks I'm pregnant because I'm been feeling sick, haven't been sleeping well, and not eating as much. How long should I wait before calling my doctor and requesting a blood test? We've been trying and I hate to get my hopes up...
Give him a call, sometimes a blood test is better.
