We have been trying this month and im counting days like crazy now. i just want to know after how many days i can be sure with a test or scan. how soon did u get a clear confirmation?
A home test is usually reliable from the day of your missed period, so roughly two weeks after conception. Testing too early gives false negatives. For full confirmation a blood test or early scan at the clinic seals it.
I tested 5 days before period out of excitement, faint nothing, total stress. Retested 2 days after the miss and it was clear. So give it till at least the missed period date, the wait is annoying but worth the accuracy.
My doctor said urine test is dependable from the first missed period day, and blood test can detect slightly earlier. She confirmed mine with a scan around week 6. So a few days after the miss for home test, doctor confirmation a little later.
I waited till the missed period date which my app flagged, then tested with morning urine, clear result. If u want exact confirmation, a beta hCG blood test from the lab gives certainty even a bit earlier. But home test post-missed-period is the easy go-to.
