Should I do a pregnacy test or be patient and wait?

Question

Well today is day 24 of my cycle and my average is 26 so I find myself again sitting here and wondering. I decided not to temp this month because I felt it was taking over my life and well you know its just nice to be spontaneous sometimes so we decided to chill and that is exactly what we have done. That is until now ...............Last Thursday I started to feel unwell and developed a stinkin cold which I still have not been able to shake. The last few days I have felt a bit shakey and kind of strange in a non descript way then yesterday I past out and was out cold for 10 mins. I had a few period type pains a couple of days ago and now my mind is in over drive again. Am I or not, do I test or not. I don't know if I can stand the disappointment of a bfn but desperately want to know if it is a bfp. I know that in a few more days I will be a bit more certain if af does not arrive but arghh the waiting game is enough to drive you insane. Sorry for going on but any words of wisdom, advice or support would be gratefully recieved today.

Answer 1

Just do the test - over the counter tests are non-interfering and harmless so do it and control your response, and you are going to find out in the end anyway so why prolong the worrying?
Remember its not what what happens to you in your life, but what you do with what happens to you in your life.

Answer 2

I was charting everything for 6 months and finally I decided to stop and relax and sure enough I found out I am pregnant last week. I think that is the best idea.

Anywho, I got my positive 1 day before my period was due (or I thought it was due, I lost track of that also) anywho, just wait a couple more days because if you are pregnant and you get a negative because its too early it might discourage you. Have your breasts and nipples been hurting at all? That's one of the first signs and that was my indicator.

Answer 3

you need to have a pregnancy test theres nothing wrong with that, if positive ,then you should be careful things that are not done by a pregnant woman such as taking unprescribe medicine, drugs,alcohol, stress,expose in hazardous area you should keep your health free from harm most especially the baby in your womb,If the result is negative, then consult your doctor so that you will be able to know whats going on to your health,it is very good decision if your seek physician's advice of what to do. dont lose hope,just pray anything its not impossible to God, be strong.

relax do't strain ur self too much there are such senstive preg test available in the market that are capable of diagnoising the pregnancy 1-2 day before the expected date of period,so u can get the test and see but please don't be disappointed if u don't see what u desire as u might be too early to test so u can repeat the test 1-2 days after u miss ur period,good luck

Answer 5

Certainly if you passed out, you went to the hospital to be checked immediately...and in the least, the doctor's office. If you want to test, go ahead, but you need to see a doctor no matter what. Passing out is just not a normal thing (even when we're sick) and you need examined. Best of luck.

Answer 6

You can really do nothing but wait. It might still be too early for a pregnancy test to be completely accurate and it would suck to get your hopes up (one direction or another) prematurely.

Give it another 3 weeks to play it safe, then try.

Answer 7
