If you suspect you’re pregnant do you test…

**this is for you personally - not what the box says** This may sound really silly to say - but I’m optimistic that I’m pregnant right now. I had a pregnancy loss in May so I’m hesitant to test and get that confirmation. My period is routine clockwork 27 days and I’m currently on day 29. I’m tempted to wait until I’m at least 6 weeks to check.

So you’re going to wait another 2 weeks? You’re more patient than I could ever be, good luck 😊

I’ve been known to test every day since the point of even *thinking* I’m pregnant. If I were in that situation, I’d already be 2 tests deep lol

I get the big bulk pack of cheap tests and test every day 😅

It takes so much for me to even wait until 8dpo 😂 sometimes I do one super early to get it out of my system. I also had to do progesterone and couldn’t start until I had confirmed pregnancy so I would test early so I could start that asap and try to prevent a miscarriage.

I know you're supposed to wait but I just couldn't. It's hard though if you test too early and see that negative 😭

I’ve found a no in the past everyday helped me mentally to not get disappointed for that month… putting all my hopes/waiting for a particular day to test and then it being negative I found crushing - then I would definitely cry. Wishing you all the baby dust💕

@Ali bahaha totally fair! Interesting about the progesterone. I’m already on prenatals and folic acid and as far as my docs are concerned at this point that’s all I’d need to do anyways.

@Stacey right!? That’s totally understandable

@Amy I know it sounds ridiculous 😂😂. I just look at the statistics of miscarriage and when the rates start dropping significantly. 🙈

For sure! That was just my situation and why I specifically was an early tester 😊 best of luck to you 🤞🏻💕

I’d test now so your doctors/midwives know. They may give progesterone which is better started earlier x

I was 4 days late with crazy undeniable symptoms when I tested and got a blazing dye stealer before I could even stand up 🙃 but months of early negatives gave me anxiety

After having a chemical in August, I completely understand that. If you think you’re pregnant and you are living as if you are, I would just wait til you’re comfortable testing..
