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?

Wait 2 Weeks? Are you crazy??!?!?
I always start testing prior to 2 weeks...I am always disappointed though so you'd think I'd learn my lesson. We are TTC for over a year. My cycles are irregular...30-47 days so I should probably wait the 2 weeks after 47 days before actually testing. Who can wait that long?!?!? I wind up spending a lot of money on pt's!

beware the casually taken test!
I was about 3 days late - had had cramping etc and couldn't believe no a/f - so took one almost randomly - and ka-boom. "BFP". Stunned!

My Opinion on HPTing early...
I always waited until I was late.I had my last baby 6 years ago so I don't think the REALLY sensitive tests were available yet.I think the problem with testing too early..before AF is supposed to arrive..is that not all women who test will get a + yet and then there are women who may pick up chemical pregnancies only to have AF start a few days later.We are TTC and I will admit I have tested early but I think ,especially if you are having trouble, it can lead to a lot of anxiety,I know it has at times for me.

Patience is a virtue.....
Personally for me, I try to not to take a pregnancy test until after a/f is missing. That way I'm not disappointed with the BFN. IT's so much easier that way. I hate to see a BFN and then have a/f show up. It's just so much better for me to be patient, and cheaper!!!
