    When to test, am I or not?

    hi!
    I'm a newbie here and would like to get some advice.
    I am TTC #2 and think I may be showing some signs of hopefully being pregnant.

    I am around 13 DPO with AF due this sunday, Since Sunday afternoon I have experinced the odd cramping feeling, a massive break out in pimples which I only normally get once I am on AF. Sore (.)(.) but I can have that before AF most months.
    My lower back aches which has been happening since Sunday afternoon.
    Today I am feeling very tired, a little emotional and I have almost stuffed up everything I have touched today.

    Do I wait till sunday to test even thou I have a party on saturday night and would like to know before hand. As I am around 13 DPO would I be safe to test now.

    We never planned the first one so its all new to me testing this early as I was nearly 4 weeks pregnant when I took a test with my first child

    Thanks
    XOXOX

    I'd test again in a few days just to be sure or see your GP
    Good luck

    Sounds very promising to me!!!

    Before I knew I was pg with DS2 I came out in a massive pimple break out, had cramping and lower back pain, just like you I tested at 13DPO, but got a BFN, I waited two more days and got a BFP.

    Good luck!! (and most likely congrats )

    I am so excited! hubby can't stop smiling.. I pretty much didn't wait 3 minutes to post on here and tell someone *as I was still waiting for hubby to get home*

    After that 3 minute window was over, I can clearly see the 2nd line, its just no where near as bright.

    I will be testing again saturday morning and I have a doctors appointment on sunday.
    So fingers cross all is good..

    So excited!

    I don't want to be the one to get your hopes up ... but when i tested i got two faint lines ... and i remember telling my GP nah i'm probably not pregnant but she was certain i was before taking at preg test at her clinic ... And i clearly remember she said with a grin " A faint line IS a line and that means positive too"
