When should I take the pregnancy test?

Question

So, I was wondering when I should take the pregnancy test at home. People suggest that I should get the ones that says"not preg or preg" and I so I'm alittle concerned this. My boyfriend and I had intercourse about the day before which was the 18th of August, and for some reason today I've been feeling cramps and now I'm a bit worried if I'm pregnant. But of course I knew i had my limits, protection first..but during the intercourse he slide out, and his condom as well, and he cummed all over my body. what worry me is that, it was on me, but I'm not sure if anything got in me, which I don't think. But now I'm having cramps, or feeling alittle heavy. My period doesn't come till 2-3 weeks later, somewhere between the line.. and I'm guessing I should be testing it after my period to be more accurate. But what are the chances of getting pregnant?

Answer 1

You're probably just being paranoid right now.  But you can't take a test until a few days before your period is due.  A lot of pregnancy symptoms won't appear until about sixish weeks into the pregnancy.  But you may experience vomiting, frequent urination, cravings, implantation bleeding, sleepiness or being unable to sleep, etc.  Be aware that not all women get these signs.  Some hardly get any, some get it bad.  You just have to wait and see.

Answer 2

You probably wouldn't start having any symptoms until you've missed your period. Some women pass out, some are nauseous and tired. Others don't know they are pregnant until a doctor tells them.

It is possible that you could get pregnant. Anytime any of his fluids (whether it's *** or pre-***) get around your vaginal opening you can possibly get pregnant.

You need to go ahead and make an appointment with a doctor or planned parenthood clinic. Not because you are pregnant, but if you are sexually active then you need to get on birth control pill and take it everyday without skipping any days. Seriously, if you want to be having s*x then you need to make sure you aren't stuck with dealing with this guy for the next 18 years for getting you pregnant.

Answer 3

A pregnancy test does not work until it is within a couple days of your period or you have already missed your period.  There is no way you can feel pregnant within a couple days of having s*x.

Answer 4

it is best to take a test 10 days after your missed period but it can be accurate 5 days before your period. i personally don't think you're prego. early signs are sore b*****s and implantation bleeding which is like your period but lighter.
