Q: first response pregnancy test too soon

I'm not quite sure if I am movin too fast with things so please any advice, thanks...

saturday, my fiance and I had unprotected sex. then sunday morning we did it again without a condom, I am not on birth control...

my first day of my last period was february 14, and I am usually on time. I am expecting it tomorrow but I am adding a day, so the 15th, since feb. was a short month...

so I bought a first response pregnancy test package, two in a box deal, on... tuesday. I took a test that nite it was negative. then I waited til this morning and right when I woke up I took another test, because the box said that the percentage of correct readings went up each day closer to your period.

my question is... am I jumping the gun on the test? since I only last had sex on sunday, can it show up that soon on the test? I have been feeling sick but I think its just stress. I guess if anything I'll find out this weekend if I am or not but any advice would help, thank you!

no its too soon , it takes up to 6-12 days for conceptions to happen ( i think)
& the only way to know for sure is to wait untill you miss your period .
But you can by the First Response pregnancy test which can detect the pregnancy hormome up to 5 days before you expected period .

goodluck !

Wait for approximately 10-14 days after unprotected sex to take a pregnancy test and use first morning urine. You have tested way too early. It is best to wait until your period is due or late before testing. The hormones need to build up in your system.
