    It's way too early. Three days late is not even considered late. In order to get a reliable reading on a home pregnancy test, you should wait until you're at least 2 weeks late, then test using first morning urine.

    Can you test now? Sure. You can test any time you want. It's just unlikely that you'll get a reliable result.

    Of course she can take a pregnancy test now. She can take a pregnancy test any time she wants, even during her period. The question isn't whether she can, it's whether she should. The answer to that question is no. At three days late it's way too early to test.
