When To Take Pregnancy Test?

Me and my boyfriend are trying to have a baby. Today is July 29th 2:29pm, and I always get my period on the 28th of the month. I haven t had cramps or anything, but my breasts are pretty tender. Could I be pregnant? Will a home pregnancy test accurately tell me if I am pregnant this early?

Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion when there is missed period in a regularly menstruating woman the pregnancy should be ruled out first.I suggest you to go for a urine pregnancy test a week after missed period for accurate results.The pregnancy symptoms like nausea,vomitings,increased urination,sore breasts usually start 2 weeks after missed period in pregnancy.So wait and check for the test.
