Dear Lin,

I’d recommend waiting a week (i.e. Feb 19th) unless you’re willing to burn money :) If you’ve got a lot of pregnancy tests to use up, then you could take one every 4 days. But typically the first one is best to take when you miss a period, with the second test 7 days following, and the third test 7 days later.

Best luck!

    My period is normally 4 days but this month it came on Thursday the 20th and was off by Friday afternoon. It spotted on Saturday morning and went off and then the same thing on Sunday. I had sex on August 10th. I took a pregnancy test on the 24th and it was negative. Could I be pregnant? Should I take another test? If so when?
