Testing Inaccurate???

Testing Inaccurate???

I just came across a new reason to freak out.  When I had my 6 wk test the nurse had a hard time getting blood from my finger.  She had to squeeze and squeeze.  It seems like she didn't get that much blood from me.  Do you think this could have affected the results of my test and gave a fale negative???

Dude,

Hahaha..happened to me too. At 11 weeks, I did the test with finger pricking, hardly any blood, gotta be squeezed over and over again. I was freaking out, guess it affected the blood flow.

I'm sad to see this happening to you.  Please.  Trust your result and move on.
