Question

How soon after your missed period can you take a test and the baby be detected cause I have missed my period. I was supposed to get it on Feb 26 and I havent gotten it yet. I was supose to put my nuva ring in on Feb 4th but I didnt because my husband and I are trying to get pregnant. I took a preg. test on mon. and wed this week is it too soon to know if I am pregnant or do you think I am just not preg?
Thanks

I have taken pregnancy tests on the day that my period was due and was able to get a positive when I was pregnant.  I would say that if it is late at all you can take a test now.   Good luck!

Most tests these days say that they are effective 5 days BEFORE you missed you period so go ahead and test! Good luck!

I got a positive 3 days before my missed peroid.

My period was due on the 27th and I got a positive pregnancy test tuesday night and again on wed morning!!
 You might have ovulated late and might be to early to get a positive..Good Luck!!!!!

yea i say if u didnt get a positive on monday that you ovulated later then u might think. I didnt test positive until 4 days after my missed period, im positive i ovulated late because of that and because baby has measured accordingly since. good luck!

I swore I was pregnant with my daughter and so I took 2 test both neg. I waited another week and figured I would test again if still no period... So needless to say I was def. prego it just took another week to show up for me but with her I bought cheep $ store ones...lol I'd wait a few days and then try again... Have you been stressed lately? cuz I know that use to delay my cycle sometimes... anywho good luck!

You can take early response tests now as soon as 6 days before your missed period (First Response tests). Since you've missed your period, if you're pregnant, you would test positive right now. If you've taken a test Mon and Wed. and it was negative, then you're probably not pregnant. You can always retest today or tomorrow, use your first morning urine tomorrow morning and retest. You may have ovulated late or implanted late and that could have made the previous tests negative, but you might show up positive if you retook your test today or tomorrow.

Good luck! Hope you get the answer you want!
