Ok, here's my question! How long after conception can a pregnancy be

detected by an at home test? As many of you know we lost a baby 1 month

ago. My dr had originally recommended we wait 1 cycle before trying again

but at my check up last week he said it really was only for his 'dating'

puropses that he recommends that and if it happened before not to worry. I

haven't had any period yet. At that appt. (last Tue) they did a blood test

to check that no preg hormones were still showing up--it was back to totally

0. Dh and I were intimate on Fri and Sat (maybe others, can't remember!!)

and today I (for some reason, sixth sense??) took a test. It came out that

I

was pregnant!! At first the line was so faint that I thought I must be

wishing it there but after a few more minutes it was a bit darker. The

instructions said that if there was ANY line there at all that the hcg was

present and to assume I'm preg. and not to view it after 10 minutes that

sometimes a line will show up when you're not really preg. Well, it was

well

before the 10 min when i saw that faint line. I did not take it with my

am

urine, will do that tomorrow but wondered just how soon the hcg shows up. I

know I was not preg last Tue and now apparently (hopefully!) I am........

Anyone know??

Thanks!

I vaguely remember people testing positive at 8 days after

conception....here's hoping it is a big +++++++++++++++++ for you!

Good luck

The Walmart test is good. I " missed " on a Saturday and tested Monday.

Changed so fast I didn't have time to put it down.

Well, I know the Confirm test from Walmart is supposed to be able to detect it

really early. I never tested before I was late but I know others who have with

the Confirm test and it was accurate.

*fingers crossed* for you!

The Walmart test was correct for me within 10 days.

I do believe this is the most sensitive test, besides having blood drawn.

GOOD LUCK FAWN

Sorry Ladies, let me be more specific.

The Walmart test was correct for me 10 days after ovulation/conception -

before I even missed my period.

I'm using a Walgreen's brand of what reminds me of the ClearBlue Easy. Two

lines=preg one line=not preg. I guess I'll do the other test in the am

and see what it says and maybe wait and then go get the Confirm one at

Wal-Mart.

Thanks for the well wishes! Keep your fingers (and toes!) :-) crossed!!

I'll let ya'all know!
