When did you get a positive pregnancy test ?

Hello ladies. I'm a Lil bored and have been doing some reading and it made me curious.
Has any of you ladies had sex and like 5 days later tested positive? Or did you have to wait a couple weeks or even a month? I tested positive with my daughter and I was 3 weeks pregnant. But on some of you.. When you found out were any of you just a couple days ?
Just curious.......

You likely won't test positive 5 days after. The egg likely hasn't even implanted fully yet.

It's not so much about when you had sex as when you ovulated. Sperm can live in the uterus for up to a week. Even if you ovulated the day you had sex 5 days is too soon. The earliest I've gotten a positive was 10 days after ovulation which for me was 27 days after the first day of my period. Some women get it as soon at 8-9 days after ovulation.
