Late Again...

[LoveBeingATwin]

My cycles range from 29-35 days, well the last couple ones have been 35 days to the mark. This month I am already three days late, going by my 35 day cycle. I took a pregnancy test and it was negative. When do they show positive if I were pregnant? Some say to wait 5-10 days after your missed period. Is that true? I also read that you can detect pregnancy 4 days before your cycle is due. I just want to know, even if my test are negative right now, could it be positive in a couple days? Don't want to stress though.

I really depends on the level of the hormone hCG that your body is producing. This is what pregnancy tests actually measure. With my first pregnancy I had ept's come up positive just 6 days after our first try. With this second pregnancy I didn't get a positive result until almost two weeks after the first day of my missed period. So, it can really vary both by pregnancy and by person. I think a good rule of thumb is to wait until you're a week late, but we all know how hard it can be to wait. I took a pregnancy test every other day this time until I got a light positive. I was so convinced I was pregnant. Guess I was right.
