testing early

[krey]

Has anyone ever tested 7 or 8 days before their AF and got a Positive?

[krey]

thanks girl! i should know the outcome in like two weeks. af is due the the 18th. so well see what happens. im excited! i just hate waiting.

[ammanda]

Im sorry you didnt get the outcome you wanted.  I hope it works this month for you two.  Baby Dust!!!!!

[krey]

yes af showed feb 15th. last month i had unprotected sex with my boyfriend and i didnt wanna take the plan b pill becuse i have taken it before and it messed up my cycle and i jst feel like its so unnatural ... so i waited it out. as i waited it out i started to think that even if i was pregnant it woulld be that bad! then i started to get really excited! i pretty much convinced myself that i was pregnant and then when af showed it turned out i was really disapointed. ;( so this month we tried again! now its just the waiting game. im confused on when i ovulate this month though. congrats on ur pregnancy!! are u having a girl or boy?

Did af show for you hun!? I tested + like 8 days before my priod..but i think i ovulated early as well...soo its possible depending on when you ovulate!! It was faint but really there and im now 26 weeks pregnant and counting! hehe good luck are you ttc?

[krey]

just wondering if af ever showed for u!?

[jade_21]

Yes, I had systems right away.  I started having period like cramps from the day after I believe we conceived.  I never get cramps, so I knew I was likely pregnant.  I didn't have sore breasts until the day of my missed period and then it only lasted for a day.  That had me a little confused because I always hear that is most women's first sign.  When I took the pregnancy test the morning my period was suppose to come and it came out negative I was a bit confused.  Then that day or the next day, I had some weird discharge that I had never had before so I pretty much knew the test was wrong.  Tested again with a different test a couple days later and it was positive.

I am in the same boat as your are. I dont get my AF til the 17th and I am having all the symptom too. but i dont want to test to early and just be disappointed. but i figure i will try to test on sat and hoping for BFP for Valentines day . sprinkling baby dust , good luck

Yeah I have some pregnancy symptoms like sore boobs, nausea, vomiting, cramps. My fiance was weirded out today because in the middle of walking across the room with a fork I threw it into the ground and ran to the bathroom. Oh how suddenly it happens. He's a trooper though because every time I do throw up he rubs my back. Ah... I hope he's this polite the whole time. But yeah when I took the first test my HCG was at about 14 and then 2 days later it was 48 and then 2 days after that it was 223. It seems to be doubling every 30 hours instead of the 48-72.

yes i got a positive on a clear blue digital at 8 days past 0 which was more than a week before my period was due

[krey]

congrats! So I guess it just all depends on the woman and the amount of HCG hormone the body contains. Before your missed AF did you have any symptoms?

[jade_21]

I tested about five days early with first response and it was negative.  Tested day of missed period with first response and still negative.  Tested two days after missed period with digital test and got a positive test.  

[krey]

aww congrats!!!! do you feel any pregnancy symptoms??

[alaysha]

I got a positive about 7 days before my period was due. I have a slight feeling though that I ovulated early which is causing the result.

[krey]

I actually tested yesterday which is was 8 days before AF is due.. it was negative. I used ept digital. I'm going to test again on valentines day which will be 3 days before Af is due. I still have very sore breasts and cramping on and off and a dull pain on my right ovary? Anyone ever experience this?

That didn't happen for me but everyone is different and it all depends on your hCG levels.

SSBD to you!

Certain pregnancy tests will detwect pregnancy within 6 days of being due your period.ie first reponse.however its never recommended we test so early.many women get a positive result.but end up still getting there period.as the egg wasnt very good.this happens to alot of women,which is why doctors suggest for more accurate result wait until a missed period.

[Sarah61086]

It all depends on how early the egg has implanted into the womb.
For example i you ovulated 7 days ago and it only took 3 days for the egg to implant, you may get a positive as the egg has been there for 4 days.
However, testing this early is very likely to give misleading information.
If you ovulated 7 days ago the egg could still be making its way to the womb (on average its 6-12 days to implant) So wouldnt get a result yet.
The earliest HPT i know of is the First Response early one. You can test 6 days early, but if you do chose to test then chances are high it will show neg even if you are preg. Only about 40% of people get accurate results that early on.
You may be one of the lucky ones and be put out of your misery early :-) so if you wish to test then go ahead, but just be prepared it may show neg if your HCG levels arnt high enough.

To save yourself all the am i arnt i's I would wait another 6 days, that way if you are pregnant it gives your body time to build up the HCG.

Good Luck
