For those of you who have been pregnant before, how many of you had luck with a First Response test? I've decided to go ahead and buy 3 First Response early result tests so that I can test tomorrow - 4 days before my period is due. Then even if it doesn't work I will test the first day I'm supposed to have my period and the day after if that one is negative too. I was going to wait until after my period is supposed to come (i'm on Seasonale BC so I won't actually be having a period then but that is the day it would if I was on normal BC). All I think about now is being pregnant and I think I will feel better just doing something about it! But I'm so afraid to see the negative... I was just wondering how many of you found out at least 4 days before your missed period.

The earliest I've ever seen results before my missed AF was 2 days.

You said 2 days before missed period? that would be 12 dpo correct? Have you ever tested at 11 dpo and had nothing and then the next day test again? Also, when you got your +hpt for first response testing 2 days before, was the line faint or pretty dark? sorry, I've just got all kinds of pg symptoms but they aren't consistent, they are on and off right now but it's really too early for me to have them very strong. I'm at 11dpo (if I counted right, if not then 9-10 which means I'm very much so off) and am just curious. Thank you.

You don't know how encouraging that is for me. I took one a little earlier today and got nothing so I'm going to TRY to wait until Friday to take another, that way if I am off on O day by a day or so, it'll still be 12 dpo if not 13dpo. Thank you so much. I'll keep ya'll updated. This site is helping me so much with passing the time even though it keeps the idea in my mind.

Yeah, I bought 3 tests so I'm ready to take them all if that's what it takes! I'm taking one tomorrow (4 days before period) and then the others at the time when I should have my period. I didn't think I was going to be obsessing this much but now I can't stay off the message board because it's here that there are other people feeling the same way I feel! Good luck with everything, let us know how it turns out for you!

I've been on it since I O'd and realize we had bd'd twice right at that time. We weren't ttc but I have been thinking about it alot lately. I understand exactly how you feel. I can't help but obsess about it right now. Good luck.
