Hi! I was a little anxious and jumped the gun! I am not due to start my period until NEXT Wednesday (so 6 days from now) but I am a bit anxious. I already have 3 year old twins and an almost 2 year old and my husband and I decided to go ahead and go for baby #4 (and last baby) and this is the first month we tried. I am really anxious to get pregnant so I went ahead and bought some EPT tests. Well, I wasn't planning to take one until Sunday but, of course, with hubby at work and nobody to convince me otherwise, I went ahead and took one this afternoon and there was a faint but definitely there positive!!! Could it be false since I took it so soon? Don't wanna get my hopes up bc I know it should have been too early to read. HELP! :)

They say these tests are pretty accurate and the ones I have used can tell (with the amount of hormone levels in your urine) 6 days before your period is due so I'd say, no it wouldn't be false : ) I actually just did a test a couple of hours ago because I had been feeling a bit 'off' and my period was unusually short and tada! I'm pregnant! Good luck with your new miracle : )

...just hinting - if your first set of twins were fraternal, could be another set as there is more pregnancy hormone with twins, possibly causing an early positive, also having twins already brings your chances of having another set to 1/12!

Lol - sorry if I scared you! :) Congrats on the pregnancy ! I would definetly say you are for sure pregnant!

could be true, especially if you actually got pregnant last month and your bleeding, which you may have thought was your period, was implantation.
