Many "early" tests can be taken 4 days
before your period is expected, or 10 days
after sex. However, at this point the
tests are only about 70% accurate. To
get a good reading wait (i know how
horrible that sounds when all you can
think is "am I preg", but it's best to
try!)

I took a test and i'm not pregnant yet my
period was still very late. However, I
started my period this morning, which is a
good and a bad thing. Oh well. Thanks
for the help though.

About 5 days before your next expected
period but wait alittle longer i'd say

My period was really late for the first
time ever the month before I got
pregnant....I thought it was a strange
coincidence......But a good one!...Hope it
goes your way!

Catt........ That is strange
indeed........ Mine was 2 weeks late when
the doc. Did a test and it showed neg.
Then he put me on meds to get a period,
now I am a day late wonder if it will be
pg this time. I did not tell my husband
that I am late, the last time we both had
built up hopes, I will just surprise him
with the results, if it comes to
that........

Yes. Unfortunately, I am not pregnant.
However, I was late by a bit and got my
period just in time for my wedding on
saturday. Well it would figure wouldn't
it? Now if that isn't a lesson not to
stress before your wedding I don't know
what else is. Thanks for the help though.
On another note, does anyone know if
jessymin (sorry about the spelling) had
her baby?

It depends on the type of test you
take....
I tested 2 days before my period was
suppose to start and it was a very very
very light positive. I was not sure so I
took another the next and it was darker..
But I would say just wait until at least a
day before your period should start and
that should give you accurate results
