hello
welcome to haelthcare magic.
you should wait for another 5 to 7 days atleast then get a blood test for pregnancy(serum beta hcg). also get a serum progesterone level done. if the progesterone is below a certain level you will need some supplementation of progesterone to support the pregnancy(provided you are pregnant)
