I have had the feeling for the last week or so that I am pregnant. My period is only two days late so far. When should I take a test?

You can test anytime now and feel comfortable with the results. Home tests are very accurate after you've missed your period.

It is probably safe to test now. An EPT test can detect the pregnancy hormone before your period is even late. I would suggest getting a package with two tests in it. Take one and if it is negative, wait a few days and if still no period, take the second one. If at any time, you get a positive result than it is probably correct. It is very rare to get a false positive. it is common though to get a false negative...sometimes your hormone level is just too loiw to detect...therefore, you should wait about a week or so to retest.
If all else fails, go to your doctor and get a blood test.
Good luck!

Take the test now. Pregnancy tests could be taken as early as a week before your period but it's much more accurate the closer it is the period. Since you already missed your period, it's a good time to go aheand and take it.

You can take it from the first day of a missed period i've been told as your pregnancy is dated from your last period. Its best in the morning though when your pregnancy hormone levels are highest. If it comes back negative and your period still doesnt show up, wait a week and take it again. You can get double packs.

Well if I was you.. I would go buy a test kit that has 2 or 3 in them and take one this afternoon or tonight and then if it shows negative do it in the morning with the first urine... I did that and the first time I took it it was positive and it was not with my first urine and I took it on the day that i was suppose to get my period..
GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!
