I missed my period and did a home test, but it was inconclusive. Can a blood test confirm pregnancy, and how accurate is it compared to urine tests? I need to be sure.
Of course, it's the ultimate confirmation test! I'm in my 3rd trimester now and honestly, I feel like they have taken liters of my blood for tests by now, baby is half built on my blood and half on tests lol. Go for it, it is super accurate.
Totally! Just had my baby last month, and let me tell u, my home kit actually showed negative twice even though I was pregnant. My gynac got a blood test done and that is how we finally confirmed my pregnancy.
Actually yes, my friend told me blood tests are super accurate even before u miss your period. We are also trying to conceive since a few months, and honestly I feel so shy thinking of going to a lab to ask for this test.
Haann, it absolutely can. I did my blood test in the first month because I just couldn't trust the home kit results fully. But waiting for that lab report made me so restless, did anyone else also feel super anxious during that wait time?
Yes it does, but better to get your gynac's advice first before directly going to the lab. They will tell u exactly when to get it done and they can read the beta hCG values properly to see if pregnancy is healthy. Safe to keep doctor in loop from day 1.
Oh yes, definitely! When I got a super faint line on my home kit, my doctor immediately asked for a blood test to confirm. But do we need to do it twice to check if the numbers are doubling? I'm still pregnant and sometimes these numbers confuse me so much.
Yes, a blood test is very reliable, ma. My mother-in-law told me to just wait for a few weeks and do home tests, but my doctor suggested a blood test instead for clear results. It confirmed everything so quickly and we could start our prenatal vitamins on time.
