How soon after giving birth will a home pregnancy test give you an accurate reading?
It will give always an accurate reading but the question is are you ovulating yet. Most women and most especially if you are breastfeeding wont ovulate and/or have their period until at least 8 weeks after delivering. I have a six month old baby and I havent had my period yet. In order to be pregnant again, you have to had ovulated and if you did, then you just calculate when to take your home pregnancy test just as you'd always do. Lety

How early can a pregnancy test work?
Answer
There are several things that can contribute to a negative pregnancy test even if you are pregnant. Some medications can give you a false negative, the timing of the test can affect the results. If you did not follow directions properly; if you let the test sit for too long the results may read negative after a while. It is important to read the results within the amount of time given on the instructions of that particular pregnancy test you bought. To ensure the best results:
- Take the test in the morning, if possible, because your hCG (pregnancy hormone) levels are at it's highest
- Don't drink a bunch of fluids before taking the test because it will dilute your urine and can affect the results
- Take the test no more than 1-2 days before expected period. Although some test say that you can see results up to 5 days before your missed period the percentage of accuracy is very low.
- urinate for as long as possible on the foam like strip
- wait for the results
