jadepilot65 said:So, I’m heading out tomorrow to grab a pregnancy test since everything is going to be closed this Sunday, and I really want to take it first thing Monday morning. Does anyone have any actual advice on which brand I should pick up? Which one is actually reliable if I'm looking at day 28 of my cycle by Monday—assuming, of course, that my period hasn't already shown up by then. 😢

It all seems pretty subjective to me. Talk to the pharmacist. I wouldn't even bother testing until the 17th. I'm hoping some girls check in on the 16th to share what happened.

I think Intim Plus works pretty well. It worked for me, though I didn't actually take it until seven days after my period started. A friend of mine used it on the exact day she expected her period, and it gave her a result right away...
Hopefully, I won't need to go out and grab another test anytime soon.

Which cure are you all waiting for on the 16th? Are you ready for the testing phase? Let me know.👍

I am fully aware that this question has probably been asked a hundred times already...
My period is currently nine days late. On the third day of being late, I took a test—it was negative. Then again on Wednesday, still negative, but then on Friday, it came back positive!
We used Blue Cross tests every time in the evening, since the instructions say you don't necessarily have to wait until the morning.
Is there any actual possibility of getting a positive result when there isn't a pregnancy? I mean, the results changed completely within just two days...
Thank you!

So, what exactly is going on this March 16th? I’m a bit lost here... people seem to be mentioning it in several different posts, but I can't quite wrap my head around it...🙂

It likely showed negative at first because there wasn't quite enough hormone buildup yet to trigger a positive, especially since you were testing in the afternoon; however, that positive result is almost certainly the real deal, because if that specific hormone—which is tied strictly to pregnancy and a few other extreme conditions—isn't present, you won't see a plus sign. In short, it’s extremely likely that you're pregnant—sorry, I just realized I'm talking to a guy! 🤣

There are three girls planning to take their tests that day since it happens to be their scheduled day for M. Left

God, give me a break... Three hundred bucks just for a handful of tests?! Are you kidding me? You can go down to CVS, grab one of those thirty-dollar kits—you know, the strip kind—do it first thing in the morning, and boom, you’ve got your answer. Why does everything have to be such a massive rip-off lately?
**********************
I think I'll just sit tight for a few more days. Why rush things? There's no sense in jumping the gun when you can just wait and see how the dust settles.🤣
My chest size is a bit too large, honestly... but sometimes I get this weird ache right before M. Left. Is that normal? Or just my luck?😁😁

With tomorrow creeping closer, I’m becoming more and more convinced that the witch is actually going to show up! There hasn't been even a hint of her so far, but honestly? I've got a feeling about this one. I'm just a total freak of nature like that!

Seriously???? Where is everyone? It arrived on the 16th, and I haven't heard a peep from any of you. Good luck with that, I guess!! 😍

I’ve decided I’m just going to wait until tomorrow morning—and if I don't have an answer by then, I'm calling it quits and moving on. Honestly, I've been dealing with this nagging, lightheadedness all day long and I haven't the slightest clue what's going on with me.😢 To make matters worse, I actually have to head into downtown to take care of some business, and I keep finding myself taking these massive, deep breaths like I can somehow just exhale this dizziness away! 🤣

So, wait—you're telling me dizziness can actually be a sign of pregnancy instead of just standard PMS?

That’s the catch. The symptoms overlap. You should check if you're feeling anything out of the ordinary compared to your usual cycle. I get dizzy during my PMS. What's your temperature? Have you actually checked it?

Look, when I deal with my monthly cycle, I don't usually get those nagging lower back aches or that dizzy feeling. And as far as my temperature goes? It’s pretty much standard for me—usually hovering right around 96 degrees.🙂 For a couple of days, it was running just a tiny bit higher than usual. But I just checked it again and now it's sitting at 95.2. Honestly, maybe my thermometer is just acting up.😲

He’s lost his mind!!! Honestly, you should just knead that first batch in the morning; that's the only way to really tell. And don't overdo it. Whatever happens, happens.

Hey ladies, where has everyone been hiding? I’ve just been sitting here waiting to see if any of you had any good news to share. I’m really crossing my fingers that things went your way!
Wishing everyone the best of luck out there... and please, don't be a stranger when you hear something...😍

So, the witch hasn't shown up yet either. I'm hoping she stays away. I'm running a test tomorrow, so I'll check back in then... where is everyone else? As far as I know, there were four of us waiting for the 16th.
