When do you take a pregnancy test?
At what point during your
cycle do you take a pregnancy test? If you are trying to conceive do you wait the Two Week Wait, or do you start testing earlier? Or, if you're not trying to conceive, how late are you when you start testing?
Got surprising news from obgyn/when to test

OK-So I posted my current situation on another thread-
basically, I've been getting very very faint lines on my preg tests-this is the 3rd one I've gotten. I got one last Friday (nov 20th), that Sat the 21st and today (the 26th). The thing is, I started with a brownish discharge Sat the 21st, and had bleeding and spotting this week on and off. It started pretty near my expected period-but it hasn't been like a period for me.
So I called the doc to see if I could get a blood test-I'd be on day 35 (even though I do have longer cycles). But they said they wouldn't give me one! She said they don't reccomend testing until 2 full weeks after you would miss your period!
This was news to me.
I know that if I m/c or still am-theres nothing I could do anyway. But I'd like to know once and for all if I am or if I'm not.
I have all the preg symptoms I got with my daughter. Its so weird.
Anyone else heard of testing this late???
