Yep you tested way to soon! There are tests that claim you can get a accurate result 2 to 3 days before af but very few woman get a ++ that soon . I would wait untill the day af is due to test again !Test with a first response early or Answer early they detect the lowest amount of HCG !


Goodluck and hope to see a +++ from you soon !

Thanks : ) You would think I would know I have 2 kids but they are 8 and 10 so its been awhile. What does AF mean??? I did try a test called answer but I guess I was still early. I am very nervous but yet excited if I am to be pregnant for this will be high risk due to the fact I had a heart transplant 4 years ago!!! Thanks again Lisa

My period (AF) is due 8/23 or so and I, too, took an answer early test this morning, only for it to come out negative. But, my breasts are getting noticably sorer and I've been exhasuted by the end of the night for the past 3 days (unusual for me). Reading your post gives me hope! Good luck to you!

OMG...AF is due the 23rd for me as well...I was beginning to think bad things because I tested today too and got a - result!! I have the white bumps on my breasts, they are getting bigger and beginning to hurt...I have also been cramping and I think I had implantation last week! Keep me informed on your luck!!!
