there are tests that say they can detect 5 days before your missed period, but if i were you, i would wait until the missed period for it to be most accurate.

It really depends on when you ovulated. I suggest waiting for a few more days, but if you can't stand the wait... here is my suggestion:
Go to the store and buy a pack of 2 or 3 pregnancy tests (I like First Response and would recommend that you get that kind). Take one tomorrow morning (with first morning urine). If it's negative, blame it on testing too early. Then wait until December 6th and test again first thing in the morning.
Good luck!

I used a ClearBlue test 3 days before my period and I was pregnant! But I just knew anyway before even doing the test, I felt different and can't really put it into words. Why not buy a test that has the 2 testers in it, do one now and then wait until your period due date. Good luck!

i just bought a test that says TEST 5 DAYS SOONER. What they mean by that is that most tests are able to detect the hcg in your urine the day after a missed period and the 5 days sooner means 5 days before that so that would mean 4 days before your missed period. Here are the percentages of how many days before missed periods of woman who got a positive
4 days before missed period 53%
3 days before missed period 74%
2 days before missed period 84%
1 day before missed period 87%
day after missed period 99%
I don't know why it doesn't have a percentage for the day of missed periods but even some woman won't get a positive for days or weeks after their missed period.
I'm expecting my period on the 11th too! I'm taking a test tomorrow at 11dpo and then if I miss my period i'm going to test again that day!

I know its hard to wait each time to test but just stick it out and test on the day you are expecting your period or even wait a few days to see if it comes. This will keep you from wasting the tests and getting that sinking feeling every time you see the negative. At least if you have not tested negative then you can still hold out hope that you are. Thats my theory anyway.

yes some hpt's give up to 5 days before your miss af, but even though those same one what give u it before your miss period it also can be incorrect so if you test today and get a (-) you always can test again after a miss period
