Ok ladies! My husband and i have been trying since May (iud removed in march). I had problems withy period being on track and picking up again after having an iud for 6 years. Ive been regular since August. Im 5 days late now. My breasts have been tender for about a week. I want to take a test but im scared of the disappointment of a negative so thats keeping me from having the feeling of excited of a possible positive (if that makes any sense)! So my question is how soon is too soon after a missed period to take a test? Im an emotional roller coaster over here!
