    When is/was your period due? Have you taken an HPT yet?

    You can take an early response test 5 days (but no sooner) before your expected period. You can take a regular at home test the day you miss your period. You can take a pregnancy blood test fairly soon after concieving. I would suggest the earliest of one week before your period. Blood tests are most accurate.

    Please know that you should always take a HPT first thing in the morning even if the directions say you can take it any time. Reason being, you urine has the highest concentration of hCG (pregnancy hormone) first thing in the morning if in fact you are pregnant. If you take it any other time of day you risk a false negative.

    I hope you get the result you are looking for.

    Congrats! Sounds like u got your wish. Don't forget to set up your first prenatal appointment as soon as possible, and start taking prenatals immediately.(you can get them at walmart or anywhere with a drug/pharmacy department in it)
