Hi,

Sorry to bother you all again. i posted something on here the other day.

I'm not sure if i'm pregnant, i'm supposed to be due on the 24th.

i've had problems with my stomach for the last 2wks and the doc doesnt know what is wrong.i am on the pill.

Sorry to go into detail, but i had one lot of diarrohea and since then when i've been to the toilet, it's been a bit inbetween (if you know what i mean - not solid and not runny!)

Me and my partner slept together last Sat, not sure if the pill will be affected.

Anyway, i was wondering if Mon 24th (when im due on) would be ok to do a test.

i just cant stand all this waiting, i just want to know.

A lot of tests these days can give accurate results on the day you are due on your period, however, i would say wait a few days after that if it doesn't show up, then test.

You can get an Early Response test, but these are more expensive, so if you can stand to wait a bit I'd probably give it til at least Weds. Hope you get the result you want!

Thank you.

I'm hoping that i am, but i don't want to think i am and get a negative and be disappointed.

These next few days are going to be awful. it's the not knowing.

Thanks again, i'll keep you's posted. x fingers crossed. x

The waiting is always the worst, so just try to relax and put it to the back of your mind for a while.
If it were me, i would wait until the day your period is due at the very earliest to do a test, if not a couple of days over if still no period.. as mentioned, the expense and dissapointment could be avoided slightly.
Good luck, i hope it turns out how you wish.
