hcg level

Hey to all! Okay now my period is 8 days late, I have taken pregnancy test like every morning (first response), can it be that my hcg level isnt high enough for a home pregnancy test to give me accurate results?

Oh yeah for the past 3 days i been waking up very nausea.

A first response test should be able to detect pregnancy about 14 days after conception.  Its possible that you ovulated later in your cycle that you thought and might still be pregnant.  Retest in about 5 days.

Mosty tests are very accurate at detecting the HCG hormone first day of a missed period. Is it possible ur doctor would order you a blood preg test?   Once pregnancy symptoms begin it is due to an increase in the pregnancy hormones so if preggers I would think a test would of picked it up by now.

Best of luck!
