Default should i take a test now?

This is so dumb of me but i didnt mark when my actually last period ended. I think it ended on the 12th of March but it could have been the week b4. Dont ask me how i messed this up. We had sex alot this month while ttc and about 3 days ago i started getting cramps at work and i have had them for three days and today my back hurt. I never get cramps or back aches ever so this is strange for me. I am starting to think maybe i could be pregnant since i have read about implantaion cramps. I have been so grumpy this week too. So anyway i think my period is due in 3 days, is it too soon to test? I mean will the HCG be too weak to show up?

If you are pregnant enough to show symptoms then you are pregnant enough to take a test and have it be positive! That is what my OBGYN told me anyway.


Good Luck and let us know how it turns out!

I tested this pregnancy 5 days before my period was due and it was positive, but if you cant remember when your lmp was then that might be hard to guess. Maybe wait another week and test again if you dont get a period. good luck!

I'd still try again in a few days. A lot of test nowadays claim they can detect a pregnancy a few days before your period. I would imagine that's true for some people but not all. You may not have enough hormones yet but I'm sure you already know that

its too early to have a test. sometimes the kit can't detect it. You better see your OB
