I was pretty bad at keeping track of my periods before mainly because i wasnt trying.  I suspect I was a week to week and half late when I realized I was pregnant in July.  But the EPT are designed to test for up to 5 days before you missed period and doctors say that home pregnancy tests are accurate..  I had light spotting a couple days after my positive test that i was thought was implantation bleeding.. might have veeb (probably an early indicator of my evenual miscarriage 7 weeks later) but I was pretty pregnant by that point.. HCG was 7000, i estimated myself to be between 5-6 weeks at that point as I know I had my period either last week of may or first week of june...probably conceived 3 weeks earlier...

Most o the early symptoms I didnt notice but the thing that made me realize I was pregnant was eating.  I didnt have an increase appetitie.. But I found when I ate my first meal of the day.. I would feel full and then like 20 mins later, I would feel straving again and need to eat or i would get weak.. that continued until my symptoms started to dittle away at 9 weeks.

As a note, some women HCG rise slower than others,, make sure u get a test that test 25 MUI...  Even with low HCG levels, you should be positive within a week

I used digital EPT and got a neg on Tuesday. Still waiting to see what happens. No sign of AF, still having pinching and pulling feelings inside around the belly button area and lower abdomen and a weird dull/numbing feeling below ovaries...kinda nauseous, and very tired! Idk what to think... Thanks for all the info! its nice having someone to discuss these things with!(: Guess im going to TRY the waiting game....

Implantation bleeding, IF you ever actually get it (only 30% of women actually do) occurs 7-14 after ovulation/fertilization. If it actually was implantation bleeding you had, and not just random spotting, then it should be fine to test when you did or within the next few days because the hormones should rise enough to tell within the next few days.

I am normally a few days late too.  Using a 28 day cycle, I tested the morning after AF was due.  I got a REALLY REALLY faint positive.  each morning after it was a little darker.

I thought implatantation was about 5-6 days after ovulation.

If your cycle can be a few days off, you may just have to wait a couple more days.  good luck.

p.s.  It seems like there is no such thing as tmi on here...  heheheh

Another thing is that the spotting I had was on days 23-25 of my cycle and it was extremely light(only noticed when wiping) (again sorry TMI) and I read about IB and every website I checked says that IB occurs around the time AF would normally come..if the spotting was IB then is it too early for a +HPT?

My periods are always pretty regular..sometimes a few days off but mostly come around the same time each month. My last period was regular. Lasted only 4-5 days and was lighter than normal (sorry if that's TMI) I'm not exactly sure when I Ovulated, but I used an online ovulation calculator and it said around the 29th of Sept. Till the first part of Oct. would be my fertile time, if so then I could be pregnant because I was sexually active without protection! :) I'm trying not to get my hopes up because I'd hate to have them crushed and AF come! I've been extremely moody lately and I'm never rude to my bf but lately it seems I'm a little short tempered! LOL

also assuming that you have had sex within the last couple weeks...  If not, sometimes going off the pill just makes you irregular.  good luck!

HAVE YOU HAD REGULAR PEROIDS THE LAST COUPLE OF TIMES?  (sorry, I idn't realize I was shouting).

I have NEVER gotten a BFP until I was actually late for af.  Use first morning urine only.
The symptoms you described could be pregnancy symptoms... or not... Sometimes it is hard to tell.  Each time I was preggers, I always noticed more cm also.  I always felt crampy like af was there but nothing... for like a week before.
