Are you afraid of needles? Please elaborate ... Also your desired test
results might be helpful.

Was the home test positive or negative? Blood tests are
usually unnecessary to diagnose a pregnancy. Home tests are quite
accurate, especially if they're positive. If you had a positive
home test, you don't *need* the blood test to diagnose pregnancy.
(And if you had a negative test a week ago, you might try a home
test again, as it might be positive now.)
Or are you talking about the standard prenatal blood labs,
not a pregnancy test?

Best wishes,
Ericka

my home test was positive and today my husband over sleep I'm so mad. I
know that I am because my body says I am. And yes the test was for
pregnancy.

Then there is no need for a blood test to confirm pregnancy.
You're as pregnant as you're going to get ;-) None of my caregivers
ever gave a blood test after a positive home pregnancy test. I'm
sure some will still do that, but why get stuck if you don't need
to? You'll get poked soon enough for the prenatal blood labs.

Best wishes,
Ericka

You have a positive home pregnancy test? Then you are most probably
pregnant! I never had a blood test for pregnancy and I am sitting here with
a HUGE belly waiting for this baby to make up its mind on a date. ;-)
In other words, I don't think you need a blood test. :-)

If you have already taken a home test, why are you doing a blood test.
Was it nagative? False positives are rare on home tests.

Regarding being scared: why, what would you be scared of? Do you want
to have a baby? Are you excited by the prospect? Are you scared of
gettin blood drawn?

Regardless, if you are pregnant, you should continue reading and posting
here. It is a great support group for parents having babies.
