in Trying to Get Pregnant

my DH and i just got married in Oct and this is our 1st month "TTGP"..(well we're not trying and not not trying ..if you get what im saying). I have been having nausea, headaches and fatigue and also some hearburn. anyway, my period is due in the 1st or 2nd which i know is only a few days away. but i don't want to wait until AF is late to test. but i also don't want to waste a test by doing it early and then AF show on time. All this TTGP stuff is really new to me so i wuold love some advice. what are ya'll thoughts on testing early, good idea or bad idea.

    If you are having pg symptoms then you are pg enough to test positive. Have you read the new to TTC above the board??

    Do you chart your cycles or just assume that they're always the same number of days?

    Also, if you and your DH are actively TTC pick up a copy of Taking Charge of Your Fertility. Also, FYI, usually posts like this don't get nice responses... Just make sure to educate yourself about pg. The book helps you to understand your body. We can't tell you when to test. Just test and get it overwith. GL to you.I hope your stay here is short.

    I am a really bad person to ask!  If I was due in a couple days I have been POAS.  I would try to hold of till your period.  But like stated above if you are pregnant enough for symptoms then it would show on a test.  GL

    My motto is always wait at least 2 days after a missed period.. why waste a test?

    You can take a test, but remember you are not out until AF shows.  Good luck!!

    Well, it's sort of one or the other.  I'm not sure what you want us to tell you.

    Personally, I would test, but then I'd still wonder until AF showed if it was a false positive.  So again, take your pick.  You may have to wait it out either way.

    Wait. Do not test until you are late.
