My period was due on 26th February, but it did not come. Is today too early to test or should I wait a week or so?

I would wait because sometimes it takes time. If you are usually a little late, I would wait another week.

If you do not chart or monitor your fertility in any way, and you think you may have conceived, you should wait 19 days (or longer) after having sex to test. Why 19?! Sperm can live approximately 5 days in the proper environment; if the sperm managed to live until you popped an egg, the actual conception could have taken place several days after the sex act that got the sperm there. To make sure you're not testing too early, assume the sperm had very long lives (5 days is considered a very long sperm life) and that conception occurred then. Then allow 14 days for the embryo to implant and develop enough hCG to show up on a pregnancy test (96% of pregnant women will test positive by then.)

I got a positive 7 days before my period was due.

It might be too early at this point to show a positive reading on a test. But,you could buy a digital pregnancy test to really be sure. They cost a little more (I think around $12 for one test) but it's super accurate.

Take a test today, most give you a positive result before you miss your period.

Test today. As soon as you miss your period you can test and be pretty sure it's an accurate result. Good Luck!
