Pregnancy test

I'd been sick all week, so I took a pregnancy test. The digital readout says, "Pregnant." My husband laughed at me for taking this photo.


I'd actually been having other symptoms for three weeks, but I thought I was PMSing. Go figure.

I rushed to Quick Care for a definitive blood test, but doctors know that false positives on home pregnancy test are almost unheard of. (The false negative is the only thing you have to worry about.) The blood test really narrowed it down by revealing that I was anywhere from five weeks to twelve weeks pregnant. (I'm really glad I bothered.) Fortunately, a simple bit of math was able to help. I couldn't be more than five weeks along because a blood test on October 3 came back negative.

After spending most of the day in a state of elation, I started spotting that night. Generally, spotting at five weeks isn't much to worry about (it's known as implantation bleeding), but half of all women who spot eventually miscarry, so I couldn't help worrying. Worse, I spotted for four days, which is longer than usual. A subsequent blood test revealed that my pregnancy hormones were on the rise, so all was well.

Jessica,
This is the first time I read the pregancy test. Very interesting! I knew I was pregent with in two weeks, just by how sick I got right away. :-)

Technically, I began to get sick within two weeks, too. But the way they track pregnancy these days, they start counting from the day when your last period started (which is about two weeks before you get pregnant). This means that anyone who is "four weeks pregnant" has actually been pregnant for only two weeks. The baby itself is only two weeks old, but the pregnancy is considered four weeks along. Weird, huh?

Satta King result, people wage money on their chosen numbers from between 00 to 99. After which, a number is drawn out of the pot. Whichever person's number was drawn out, He would win the prize and people called him as the Satta king. Satta King(सट्टा किंग) is not the name of the game, it was the title used to honor the winner of the Satta Matka. But as this game became popular, people started knowing it by the name of Sattaking. Satta king is not the name of the game, it is simply called Satta King(सट्टा किंग) to honor the person who won the Satta.

The allure of Satta King online lies in its simplicity and the potential for massive winnings. Participants, known as "players," can place bets on certain numbers or combinations of numbers, often with minimal investment. However, the stakes can be high, with the possibility of winning substantial sums of money in a short period. This aspect of quick and significant financial gains has contributed to the widespread popularity of Satta King online, especially among individuals seeking quick riches.
