Hey ladies,
I just need some advice about maybe when to take
an at home pregnancy test. Here is a little background: I stopped the pill on
May 3rd and I have not gotten my period since. My last period was
April 27th and the next one would have been Memorial Day weekend and
nothing. I had my bloating that I usually get but that was it.
Fast forwarding to now, I am not sure when the best time to take a pregnancy test is. I have only been taking my temp since the last weekend of May, so not very long. It started out about 97.3 then shot up to 98.2 and has been 98.4-98.8 (98.8 for 2 Sat/Sun) for the past week and went back to 98.2 this morning. I am on day 43 and according to my ovulation calculator I could have conceived if I did, May 22nd-27th. I don’t know if I did or maybe earlier this month since my body is all thrown off I don’t know the pattern of my ovulation days. Yesterday I had bloating (kind of like a stomach ache but cramps in pelvic area) sore nipples, increased appetite, increased sex drive. I showed some signs of early pregnancy but that could just be me thinking it.
I’m just wondering when I should take a test? Fertility books don’t tell you this sort of thing so I am asking based on your experience and knowledge with TTC if any of you have ideas. I am still learning and writing down everything each day.
