I bought a pregnancy test....

Ok. I went to the $.99 store today and got a test. I'm gonna wait to take it till the AM, tho. Cuz I'm thinking it may stil lbe too early. Like maybe Wed. would be better. But it's only $.99, so like who cares. But then again, if it's only $.99, how accurate will it be? Guess we'll find out, now won't we? LOL! But keep in mind, I had to take 3 tests w/my 4th child before I got back a pos. result, so if it comes back neg., I'll take one again in 2-3 days.
Since Thurs., I've noticed a change in mucus, (ok, I know that sounds gross! But that was the 1st sign that i knew I was preggo w/#4), since Friday, I've been breaking out, and I've been ornery lately, too. As well as waking up and still feeling tired. But that's just it. That doesn't mean anything, cuz those could all be from PMS, tho, too! Well, except for the change in mucus. But I guess there's nothing I can do but wait and take it in the morning. I'll let y'all know!

I'm gonna buy another test tomorrow and take it Wed. AM if I don't have my period by then. I've heard that your HcG levels double every 12 hrs, so 2 days should be good. However, I'm not so sure about that. When i was preggo w/my 4th, I took a preg. test on Sat., it was neg. Took one on Mon, it was neg. Took one Wed, it was pos.
So maybe my body's different. Who knows.
Ahem, just my personal experience.

I'm not "late", right now I'm about "on time". So that's why I'm thinking it may be too early.

So, anyways, 4 hrs after taking it, I got my period.
Yep, you might be getting what you pay for with those 99-cent tests :) The one I've used that is super-sensitive and hasn't let me down, is Answer. It's about $9, but it detects Hcg up to four days before your period is due, and to me, the expense is more than worth the peace of mind. I've had bad experiences with generic brand tests.
Best of luck!
