Hey ladies

Just wanting some advice

So this time last year me and parter went through loosing a baby in a miscarriage and then unfortunately had to have an abortion due to health reasons of the baby.

We have made the decision to start trying again

Just wanting to know how affective is doing a pregnancy test a week before my period?

TIA x

Even if you are pregnant week before is way to early as even the early pregnancy test at the earliest could pick up a pregnancy 5 days before. Until your period is missed negative test doesn’t always confirms that you are not pregnant it might just be to early.

I would wait to see if you start your period first and if you dont start it on the day your meant then do the test x good luck xx

I'd wait until you have a missed period. You don't need the disappointment on top of all the heartbreak you've been through. Hope it's good news when you do test!
