My period is 3 days late and we are trying since couple months. Im so impatient yaar, dont know if its too early to check already. How soon did the test show positive for u guys?
My gynecologist told me that the hCG hormone takes time to build up in the body. Testing before your missed period might give a false negative even if u are pregnant. It's scientifically best to wait till 3-4 days after your missed date.
You can test on the first day of your missed period, that's usually the most accurate. While you wait, just start eating clean and avoid high sugar foods just in case. It's always better to be safe with your diet from day one.
In my case, the line came dark instantly even before my period date because of double the hormones! But normally, just wait for the missed period date. Testing too early just wastes money on kits and gives unnecessary stress.
No need to buy expensive fancy tests honestly. Just buy a simple 50 rupees kit from the local chemist and test using your first morning urine. That gives the most reliable result after your missed period.
Actually u can test even 1-2 days before your missed period if u use those early detection kits. But honestly yaar, wait till your period date otherwise faint line dekh ke tension double ho jaati hai.
Haan na, testing too early only brings confusion. Missed period ke baad hi clear test aata hai normal kits pe. Just wait for a couple of days and do the morning test, simple.
If you are really impatient, go for a Beta hCG blood test. It detects pregnancy even before your missed period and is 100% accurate. Home kits are best used only after your period is actually late.
I remember checking the kit every 5 minutes hoping for a line to appear! Don't rush it, just wait for at least 1 day of delay. My toddler is running around now, but I still remember how exciting that waiting phase was.
