WOW I hope your kidding or your very very idiotic, Advising someone NOT to go to the doctor because it is early days is silly, i mean wow... the most vital and critical period during pregnancy is the first 12weeks, medical care is a must,
I mean you've got midwife appointments, doc appointments, blood tests, other tests, confirmations, referrals to the obstetrician, A scan at 12 weeks, possibly beforehand if your high risk or a early scan is needed.
Saying not to bother is very DANGEROUS advice, if you do not know about it surly you should not advice.

Pregnancies are dated from the first day of the last period you have, so when you conceive, you are technically already 2 weeks pregnant (based on an average cycle). If the OP is about to miss a second period, that would be coming up to 8 weeks.
Maybe think twice before posting in a thread like this then? Because this will be here for a long time, and if people are just skipping through and don't read all the posts they might get the wrong advice. Maybe think about editing out the incorrect info?

You can bleed while pregnant, but it can be a sign that there's a problem with your baby, so you need to SEE A DOCTOR.

Go.To.The.Doctors. Seriously Lyric, there is no more advice anyone can give you. I personally shall not be posting further on this thread.
No, they're both equally as reliable. Doctors favour urine tests cause they're easier, less invasive and a hell of a lot quicker.
And generally if you have done a home test they won't test you at all, as modern home tests are as reliable as a doctor's test.
Huzahh and good luck
I understand it, in most cases, turns out to be entirely harmless - but still needs to be checked
so what actual contraception have you been on? because if you've been on and off it, maybe you should think about getting something like the implant? you dont have to remember about taking it, and it can last (if im mistaken) 1-2 years.....
ahh thank you
a show is the plug of bloody mucous at the end of pregnancy that signifies labour is imminent actually
And what is imminent?
I don't think we should be too harsh on her guys. After all some people can reach 17 and for whatever reason are less informed/less life experiences/more naïve than others.
