How long after missed period...

[LordOfThe5Rings]

... Should you get a pregnancy test?

I think you can do one on the day your period is due.

You can get ones that detect it early though. :)

Thanks. Wasn't sure if there was a rough time frame you should leave it.

3 days isn't too bad so get one tomorrow probably if haven't stArted.

Started, even

I did mine the day I was due and got an accurate result (clear blue digital one)

Wow everyone seems to check quite early then.

Which really means you should go get a test now and POAS!!

Best stay out of the Conception forum, that'll really open your eyes!

:O

First wee of the day has the highest concentration of hormones, so it is best to test then. I didn't and got a false negative, hence didn't find out until 2nd month.

Erm sorry i am nosy did you POAS?

I am at my parents and Mum said she had one, but couldn't find it this morning so have to wait til tomorrow morning.

So watch this space at about 9am tomorrow morning.

[probably not though - because I have been ttc for years].

I found out three days before mine was due, so no harm testing a bit early! One was First Response Early Result (faint line) and one was Sainsburys Own Digital (popped up 'pregnant' right away).

I wish they were open on Sunday's - but best to test first thing in the morning anyway. Bit awkward since I'm at my parents, but hey ho - I can talk to my Mum really easy.

Good luck!!!

I had a positive on a pound land cheapie at 9pm on the day I was due on. There is bound to be a supermarket open somewhere. I would be going crazy waiting!

Got one! Thanks to my parents living in Weymouth and Weymouth housing the sailing for the Olympics, I have managed to get one.

Mum reckons it's not a positive, just feels it may be late with a vengeance, as sometimes it runs in the family... So not getting my hopes too high.

But I have got quite a bit of discharge TMI I know which is a bit strange.

Just gotta wait til 7am ish tomorrow.

Omg. Dont keep us in suspense. Poas now!!

When you say your mum reckons it is not a positive, is it because there is no line, or a feint line? A line is a line. What do you think?

You have tested haven't you?

Nope, waiting to produce some half decent urine.

She reckons because in the past others in the family have had late periods that just came back with a vengeance.

No actual idea yet.

Within next 30 minutes I hope! Mum keeps telling me not to drink too much liquid, as it can dilute the test results? (huh?)

Perhaps she is telling others the result before us? The cheek of it!

X post sorry.

x post?

:)

Haha x post again

Discharge is a good thing. Fingers crossed for you. If neg tonight, do retest in morning. Cheap tests as good as any IMO
