I broke down and got the blood test yesterday. (I'm very impatient!) I got the results this morning, and it was also negative which the nurse assures me CANNOT be wrong. My husband and I really weren't trying, so I'm a little relieved and a little disappointed. Now, I'm off to the doc to find out exactly why my period is late and why I'm having all of the symptoms of being pregnant. I sincerely hope and pray that you situation turns out differently, Mary! Thanks for the reply! >At Mon, 14 Jun 1999, Beth wrote:
