You can try one of the highly sensitive HPT's that say you can test up to four days before your period starts, but that would only be about 60% accurate. When I had a chemical pregnancy, it was positive five days before I expected Aunt Flo, but each woman is different. I would go. No need to put things on hold, hoping you are pregnant. I'm about to book a cruise for May. I hope I am pregnant by then and if I am, I won't be indulging in any liquor, but I'm not going to put my life (and my husband's) on hold hoping for a pregnancy. I'll go and enjoy myself sipping on ginger ale! Also, if you aren't pregnant you don't want to miss your chance next cycle since your husband will be away around your O date. I think I would be leaning more towards going so that we don't miss my next O then not going because I might be pregnant.

Plus, I think the trip would be more fun if we could bar hop, seeing as its winter and there isn't much else to do.
Point is... I am due to get AF on the 21st or 22nd, and I'm wondering if its way too early to test. I need to make a decision on this trip today or tomorrow (for flights) and it kind of depends on if I'm preg or not! I feel completely the same unfortunately and don't have any symptoms, I'm just wondering when the earliest day possible is to test with a reliable result (maybe try the early tests or something)?
Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it! |
Too early for home test? I need advice due to an upcoming trip 
Thank you for taking the time to post, and I think you are right... life is too short to put it on hold for something that is uncertain!
