Hi and welcome!
Congratulations on your decision to have a baby! The girls on this board are great and are a wealth of information. I have found a lot of comfort here.
I have seen SO many people use the early tests and get a negative only to test a couple days later to get a positive. I would not recommend using them, but I can't blame you if you do because I spend a fortune on the darn things every month.
If you are tracking your ovulation I would not recommend trying an early test until 12 dpo (days past ovulation). If you are not tracking your cycle you might want to try it at

Hopefully your stay here will be a short one!
