How To Be Certain Of Pregnancy?

On the 4th and the 5th of this month I think I could have got pregnant. I started spotting about a week and a half after that. I took 3 home pregnancy tests and they were all negative. Did I take them to soon? My period shouldnt be here till the end of the month.

If you areen to become pregnant, you should be happy on missing the period.
There are various kits in the market for testing the urine to diagnose pregnancy; some of them give fairly good results 2-4 days after missing the period while some require 8-10 days time. It is always safer to test the urine 10 days after missing the period. It is better you do not become panicy or too anxious and carry out these tests too early.
Around this time ultrasonography also can tell you whether you are pregnant or not. Ultrasonography done at this stage will further help you to monitor the progress of pregnancy and the foetal growth.
