Haven't been able to go get the test strip yet, but i tried not to think about it and i've put it in the back of my mind until today when its been nearly just to long since i've had my period, could i be pregnant? i've psyched myself out before and just figured no reason to worry about it this time, but its just more than a couple days or a late period. no regular symptoms of my period at all. i'm feeling a little queezy to my stomac but that may just be nerves, but my chest is no lie its growns and it hurts so bad everytime my boyfriend tries to touch them i can't bare it. i've been finding myself hiding around corners so nobody smells my little toots here and there. headaches have been kicking in non stop too, randomly. i try to say its in my head but no period, and swollen chest my body can't do that to itself. asap responses would be nice. i'm nervous as to when to take the test i always get worried i will take it wrong or at the wrong time of day, according to online it shows i would be about 5 weeks along, are there really that common? is it too early for the test?
Hi Pat! It definitely sounds like pregnancy symptoms, and if you had unprotected sex in the last 5 weeks then it would be a for sure pregnancy! Most HPT's a pretty easy to follow, it is best to take the test with your first pee in the morning and then it takes about 1 minute - just follow the instructions on the box! IF you leave the test too long, there can be a thing called evaporation lines - which shows a positive when it is a negative. But if you follow it correctly it should be totally accurate! And also because you are late with your period, this IS the time to take it! It's not too early! Please let me know how you make out OK? Good lukc and health!
