I'll be 7 weeks in 2 days. And I found out I was pregnant 5 days before my missed period. It all depends on your hormones. And you dont really have to buy an expensive pregnancy test the dollar ones work just fine. Luke I said it all depends on your hcg levels. And yes its best to take it in the morning. If you still get a negative then I would say to wait after your missed period. Godd luck hope I helped.

You can always try but if it comes back negative you should wait a week and try again.

Tests claim to be as accurate as 5  days before but it could be 6 by now. Use your first morning pee just in case! Thats when hcg can be detected at its highest levels.
