URGENT Need to know NOW!

I know I have been asking alot of ?'s lately BUT this one REALLY matters. I have an appt tomorrow and I plan on asking for a pregnancy test. My appt. is at 10 in the morning. So my ? is IF I can hold my urine until then would that affect the results of the test i.e. Would my urine be TOO concentrated to say negative or positive? The doctor I go to most likely do a blood test cuz the hospital deems them too expensive! Also, if it does say negative how accurate will these results be?

Well darn it! I want to know what your results are, LOL! You'll save some money if you take a test at home................ can you run to the store and get a test or do you have one already?

AF was due on the 22nd so I'm only 2 well 3 days late BUT what has me thinking I'm pregnant in the 1st place is that we had sex on the 2nd of Nov. BUT he said he felt the condom slip off. So anyways on the 15th of Nov. I had just 3 or 4 little spots of blood on my undies (which I believe is/was implantation bleeding I had it with my son) Now I am 3 days late for AF with just cramps, boob soreness, and EXTREME tiredness

I would make sure you dont pee for at least 3 or 4 hours before you test even if that means you just wake up early to pee and then hold it until 10.
I hope you get your BFP

If you are not expecting your period just yet then you would need to hold your urine in. The longer it stays in your body the longer the HCG builds up in your urine (for lack of better description). If you went pee at 9:30 and drank a huge glass of water your urine would have little hormones in it to be detected on a test.

Blood tests are more accurate. Ask for a BETA HCG test (it will tell you the actual level of HCG instead of a yes or no).

How late are you? Most of the time you can get an accurate answer on a pregnancy by a week or 2 after a missed period. Some doctors offices use less sensitive tests then kinds you can buy over the counter so I would just save the expense and buy a first response and use it in the morning or beg and pled for a blood test.
