Hi! My husband and I have been TTC for the past 3 months, and this is the first time I just 'feel' pregnant... kinda like intution I guess... well I was wondering if anyone could share thier personal experience of testing early and getting an accurate result!!! Thank you so much!!! Take care!!

We tested four days early and used the EPT that says it can detect up to five days early. We could see a very, very faint line that we weren't sure if it was a positive or not. It says in there that any chance is a positive, but we weren't so sure that we were just seeing it because we wanted to. About a week later, we used one of the digital ones and got a very positive!

According to our doctor, if you wanna test with urine, you have to wait about 3 - 4 weeks after you had done it to get an accurate reading. The fastest way to find out if you are pregnant is by taking a blood test, it's also the most accurate method. We proved him right.

They say the HPT's are very accurate and you can test now as early as 4 days before your missed period. However, I have not had luck with this, you should also test early in the morning. GOOD LUCK

You sure can! I tested 4 days early with my first pregnancy. The dot on the home pregnancy test was very very faint- but it was there. When in doubt just get a blood test!
BEST WISHES!

I would go ahead and test. I took a pregnancy test 6 days before my period was due and got a positive. Go to this website it is nothing but about pregnancy test Q&A

Testing before a missed period always risks false results. Those "test early" tests are unreliable. You should just wait and see if your period comes. If it doesn't, take a test using your first morning urine.

There's no law saying that you can't test yet, but be prepared for a false negative result.
You can always retest if you don't agree with the answer.
Good luck, I hope that you get the result you yearn for :)

i know you are on pins and needles but it took me 4 years to get pregnant. take my advise, don't get into the game of waiting for the clock to strike midnight on the day your period is due. I spent hundreds of dollars on prenancy tests. Mark your calendar for at least a week past your due date. good luck.
