My period was never regular. It could come on the 10th and last till the 22nd, so when i was due to get it the 7th, i wanted to make sure it wasn't just irregular. I took the test on the 11th. And it was positive.

There are ovulation apps on your phone that can track your periods and the soonest pregnancy would show on a sensitive test. I used first response which measures very low hcg and was able to get a positive at 3 weeks 2 days so about 9 days after I ovulated and over a week before my period. I had it confirmed at a clinic 2 days later. I'm now 7 weeks

I took mine something like two days before my missed period because for some reason I just knew. I used an EPT and the first was so very faintly positive, I had one more and took it the next day after I woke up and boom, a plus sign. If you take one early, try right after waking with your first bathroom visit for a better reading.  :)

I waited a couple days (since my hubby and I were trying) and got a faint positive. Waited maybe 3 moredays and the positive had gotten darker.

I waited less than a week after my missed period like three or four days late but I had my pregnancy confirmed by my dr rather than using a hpt.
