i read all the details i took them in the morning, i took one left it 3 days then took another left it another 3days then i took the last 1 this morning as directed on the leaflet u get with it. i have no other signs that i may be pregnant its just that i was told that it can take up to 2 weeks for it to show up on a test and i was unsure if this was correct

I do not know which part of the world you are in but in the UK there is a test called first responce (available from any chemist or supermarket). It can be taken on the first day that you missed your period onwards and is as accurate as any other brand on the market. Good luck!!

You can get tests that will show up from about a week after you conceive but personally i would save my money until i'd skipped a period. In fact i thought i might be pregnant and i was putting off taking a test until i'd skipped two periods because i didn't dare to hope after a year of trying i might be! In the end i took it at 7 weeks after nearly passing out on the underground! any time after you skip your period is good ;)

depends on the test there are some test that you can take 3 days or 4 days before your missed period and there are some that you can take 2 days after your missed period when you go to the store just check them out

Some can predict within the first few days before your period is due, though the accuracy is reduced. Go to the drugstore and read some packages. Those tests are very accurate.

Honey, didn't you bother to read the box or instruction on any of those three tests you took?!?
They ALL come with directions telling you when you can take them.
If you didn't read the material, are you sure they came out negative, or are you just assuming?

You can take one the very day you are late. Most tests are sensitive enough to pick up the hormone before you are late, so the day you are due to start is fine.

I never waited more than a day after I missed my period because my period has always been so regular I could set my clock by it, but depending on how regular your cycles are, you might want to wait the average number of days it fluxuates.

I waited 2 weeks both times. I think it's 10 days though! False negatives aren't unusual, see your doctor!

it says on the test box i belive it was 3 days after your missed period. but it is best to pee on it first thing in the morning.
