We are trying for the first time and im so impatient yaar. How many days after should i actually do the test for it to show correctly? dont want to test too early and get tension for nothing.
Please wait patiently and test only after your period is missed by a few days. Testing too early can show chemical pregnancies which can be very heartbreaking. I have learned to be very patient and cautious with these tests, hope you get your good news safely.
Don't waste money buying multiple kits right after intercourse as they will just show negative. Wait for at least 14 days or a missed period so you get a reliable result in one go. Saving on unnecessary test kits is better, as doctor consultations later will cost more.
Scientifically, it takes about 2 to 3 weeks after intercourse for hCG levels to be detectable in urine. The most accurate way is to test on the first day of your missed period. If you are confused, a quick blood test at your doctor's clinic is always the best option.
I know how hard the waiting period is and how your mind constantly tells you to test every day. But testing immediately after intercourse won't show anything and will only stress you out. Try to take deep breaths and wait at least 2 weeks for a reliable result.
Haha, don't rush to buy a test the next morning itself, it doesn't work that way! Trust me, wait for your period to miss first. Save your sleep and energy now because once the baby comes, sleep is gone anyway!
