My period is due on Thursday but ideally I'd like to know today as if I'm not pregnant this month I want to join a slimming club and the meeting is tonight! I don't want to hand over the joining fee only to find out a few days later I can't go!

I have 10mui tests from ebay,

Thankyou!

No surefire way to tell to be honest. Also if you've gone to the loo already today unless you don't go until this evening the concentration of HCG in your urine might not be high enough.

Is there not a meeting next week you could go to?

It may well wqork today but TBH I would leave the slimming club until next week and test when you know your period is late.

DuelingFanjo · 13/07/2010 08:46

you just can't tell. My first pregnancy I was 4 - 5 days late before I got a positive test.

Possibly yes. I always tested positive 9 dpo (so 5 days before my period was due). You can still lose weight when pg.

You can swim while pregnant. It would be really good for you! I'd join anyway, ok competitions might not be the best idea, but what a good way to stay fit during your pregnancy.

Thanks for the replies.

Yes there is a meeting next week too, but I just wanted to get started!

I will wait.

I have done a wee this morning already so will try tomorrow morning.

I tested positive 5 days before with both successful pregnancies. 10 is the lowest sensiticity you can get, so it is more than likely you'll get a positive result 2 days before if you are pregnant.

Apparently, resting / non-pregnant hcg levels are 5 and the levels then start to double eery 48 hours from implantation.
