My last period was may 30 and lasted 4 days, my hubby and I had sex on june 11,12,13,14,and 15. The past 2 days, i've felt more nausous than I ever have in my life.. Mostly in the morning and evening, i've had major headaches, and white discharge all day today, my boobs feel heavy as bricks. Is this all in my head or could I be pregnant? I've been on birth control... On and off (i know thats bad, I just cant remember to take it) but we've decided that i'm going off it after I finish this pack, and we will t.T.C. I cant stand not knowing, I want to take a pregnancy test sooo bad.. I bought an e.P.T, when should I try it?

I had really really sore boobs about 6 days before my period was due - that's why I tested early and got a positive 4 days before I was due. When are you due??? Some tests you can take early but make sure you do it first thing in the morning!

Good luck!

I have a 27 day cycle, so i'm due to get my period on the 26th. I saw online somewhere that you can test 8-10 days after ovulation with a sensitive test.. Is ept a sensitivity test?

From looking at my temps the month I fell pregnant, the egg would have implanted 8 days past ovulation and I tested 11 dpo and got a postitive, which was 4 days before I was due. I would assume and ept is a sensitive test but i'm not sure sorry.

Keep in mind it can take 5 days for implantation. Given you had sex on the 11th, if fertilization was immediate (which doesn't always happen), implantation could have occurred on or before the 16. Which would give you 3 days of symptoms.

That is not to say it is all wishful thinking, you may very well be pregnant. I just want you to understand your body since you are obviously ttc.

When you test, use your first morning urine, it has the highest concentration of hcg in it.

So is it okay to test now?

I doubt it would be positive even if you were pregnant. You have a week until your period starts. But it is your money, take as many pregnancy tests as you want.

The closer you are to your period - or if that happens to be late - the better the chance of a positive.

I know it is exciting. But what will be the difference in knowing right now or knowing a week from now? You'll still have 9 months to go ;)
