Answers:
With most pregnancy tests, you are able to test of the first day of your missed period, however as everyone is different you should check after a week if your first test is negative as the hormone level should have changed by then. If you are still unsure, go along to the doctor and have him do a test for you. With some pregnancy tests the line which indicates a positive result can seen quite faint, this still means you are pregnant. Good Luck, hope you get the answer you want. x
You dont even have to be late for a lot of the tests. I was only 1 day late when I took a test and it worked.
i got a positive at 3 days late, go ahead and take one..good luck
You can get accurate results from the first day of your missed period. Hope you get the outcome you hope for! :o)
you can take a test 5 days BEFORE your missed period, so go ahead and take it now. it should be the right answer.
A test would show if you are pregnant now, you only have to be a few days late good luck
If your period is already 8 days late I would wait another 3-4 days before taking a test by then your hormones should be changed enough. Hope this helps:)
5 days before you miss your period for some. but you can take one now and it would be correct.
You can take some tests BEFORE you miss your period. Take one now, and it will be accurate.
now should work, I waited a week to make sure it wasn't coming and then i got a positive test. I'm sure you could get one much sooner.
You can take a test up to five days before your missed period but it works the best if you were atleast one day late.
They have some tests now that can detect the HCG pregnancy hormone as soon as the 1st day of your missed period. You should be able to take one now and get correct results. Good Luck
have a look in the chemist and you should find tests that give an accurate reading from the day your period was due! or you could go and ask the doctor to do a free one as the chemist ones are quite expensive but if you are pregnant it is worth the money! good luck with everything if you are its fantastic being a mum!
I took the test 10 days after I was late.
you can take one now. You could have taken one about 2 weeks ago.. goodluck, whichever you are hoping for!
There are many tests now that you can take even 5 days just before your period. A blood test is 100% and a prego is 99.9% . good luck xx
Its up to you,I would wait a couple of weeks.
Take an early pregnancy test(EPT) that is what I did, and you will get a result, I got mine early. Then, no matter what the result, go to a GYN doctor. Good Luck!
Honestly, I took mine before I even missed my period because I just figured I was pregnant and I got a faint line but it was still "positive". I say you can take it as early as the first day you miss your period, so with you it should show positive immediately since you're 8 days late. By the way, I used the 99 cents ones, you don't have to pay alot for a test.
hopefully that positive test was what u wanted hon and if it was congratulations i hope everything goes well for u good luck xx
