blood test

hello,
I just took a home pregnancy test about a week ago and it showed positive so I scheduled a blood test with the doctor and it also came back positive but they said I am only A WEEK pregnant...is this posible? I thought that a home pregnancy test would not reveal pregnancy for at least 3 weeks.

Well they count the two weeks from your day of your last period. When the dr said you are pregnant you were three weeks. So your period is not due and you got a positive when as soon as the baby attached to the uterus. Which is usually 7-10 days after you ovulate is when it attaches. Do you get this? I am tired and hope I explained it well. Have a good nine months:) Congraulations
