How soon after a missed period did you test??????

How soon after a missed period did you guys test for pregnancy? I am late for my period by maybe 1-4 days. Haven't been "tempin" so am not sure, but I took a test yesterday and it was negative. Im scared to try it again now, plus the tests are too expensive. my symptoms are only one of my nipples hurt, a lot of discharge, funny taste  in my  mouth but its not as strong as it was a week ago, and tired/ sleeping all the time and sometimes I have a sharp pain starting at the bottom that works its way up. Answer please, thanks.

i know that is cool but  that also has me kinda worried. I am bleeding though and its not spotting it actual blood. What are the chances that both of us can be pregnant and both had our period lol. im going to test again maybe tomorrow and I will let you know

well ladies it looks like af finally showed up yesterday. guessing that i am not pregnant after all, and i am guessing that the symptoms i was having were pms symptoms. I took 4 hpt first response b4 my period and they were coming up exactly like keepurfaith's pics that she posted but only b4 my period actully came so idk what that was about.

I tested at 10 days past ovulation...so I didn't even miss my period yet.  

Test again with a First Response Early Results and use your first morning urine...and update us!

I agree- digital tests are not as sensitive. Use First Response!!! OOH! I hope you're pregnant!!!

the other night i used a first response and it was a light faint line i had to squinch just to see the line and then the next morning i used a digital first response and it wasnt the first morning urine and that was negative, so im going to wait and see if period comes on before testing again but as of right now i forgot to mention i am using the bathroom all the time and boobs are a little sore

I took a first response regular sensitivity test 10 dpo and it was negative a first but I left it on the counter for about 10 min. and when i returned there was the faintest line where the positive line comes in..... I thought it might be an evaporation line so I waited until I was two days late for my period before testing again...BFP!!

I am in the same boat as you! I tested when the day my period was supposed to come (if I am regular which I am FAR from) and it was negative and I don't know when to test again either because I have lots of symptoms also!!! I am going to wait a week and take another!
