I belive that i ovulated sometime between last sunday and monday. I Bd on sunday and tuesday. yesterday i started to get slighlty sore boobs which feel much more tender today, is it too early to test (only been a week). I only have two pregnancy tests at home and don't want to waste one or should i just do it anyway?

TIA

Wait... The longer you leave it the more accurate the test. They're darned expensive those tests... You don't have to wait that long. Really. I tested DD1 when I was only 4 1/2 weeks pregnant and got a very definate result.

Just another thought (if you are thinking - grrrr - I wanted everyone to say "YES!") - if you ARE pregnant - it is unlikely you will get a + test at the moment, but you will still be pregnant IYSWIM with a - result and a wasted test.

it is prob too early to test. Even with very early tests that say 7dpo tends to usually pick up at 9dpo. A normal test would prob pick up from about 3 days b4 af is due.

meant to say i tested with this pg at 9dpo on ultra early test and got pos but got neg on normal tests day after. It was about 3 days later i got a pos on a clearblue digi.

I tested on a Friday before my period was due and got a negative. Tested again on Monday (period due day) and got a big, fat positive. So, I think it really depends on your body and how much of the pregnancy hormone you produce. I'd had a week of sore breasts and cramping, so I kind of knew I was, the ng test on the Friday really disappointed me, but symptoms got stronger and no period on Monday made me test again. Glad I did!

Hi , I am due to test on Thursday day AF is due, but do you think I should do a test today the waiting is driving me insane. I have no pregnancy symptoms saying that I have no AF arriving symptoms eihter.

Shall I test or wait, what are the early tests called?

Boots own brand. It was 9 days after DH and I bd'd! Did the test for a laugh coz I was drunk and bored one night! We were going to start ttc after Christmas (this was November) so I stocked up on tests. Nearly fainted when the line appeared! dd is 9mths old now.
