Alright.. Im sorry, im just totally
clueless sometimes.. Well, my period is
about 2 and half weeks late. I did have
unprotected sex, but it was shortly after
my period was actually due... So should I
take an hpt? Does it ahve anything to do
with how far along u are, or just how late
your period is?.. I'd only be like a
little more then 2 weeks pregnant if I
am.. And I was told that it would be too
early to show up anyways.. Im so confused

You can take a test 10-14 days after the
sex or once your periods late

No, that's not too early to show up.
Most people say up to four days before
your first missed period, but that's
because most conception would have
occurred 2 weeks prior to that. So if you
conceived 1.5-2 weeks ago or more, a
pregnancy test should be accurate. You
should definitely test!

Some pregnancy tests work upto 4 days
before your period is due so if you had a
text book cycle that would technically be
around 10 days after ovulation.
Most should pick it up if you are already
late, but do remember that worrying about
your period can make it later still.
The most help I can offer is to take a
test and see. If it comes out negative
wait a few days and if you still don't get
your period test again, if it is still
negative and you still don't get your
period after that book an appt with your
doctor to investigate, it maybe something
else or it maybe that your hcg levels
aren't high enough.
Each test will have a leaflet in he box be
sure to follow the instructions carefully
and make sure your urine has been in your
bladder for at least 4 hours pref
overnight (ie first morning urine) and
that you have drank loads as this can
dilute your urine and give a false test.
