Is it better to test the day AF is due?
OR
Is it better to wait a few days after AF is due and then test?

Well Not nessacerily (sp) But realisticly Yes...... If that makes any sense. Chances are if you did not get a BFP the day your AF is due, You will probably not get it that month and your AF is just delayed due to your hopes of getting Pregnant. Trust me...I have been throught this many months in a row.....The months that I really get my hopes up, my AF is late. But time and time again, when I test the day AF is due and I get my stupid BFN, well you guess it, Im not pregnant. But dont take my word as gospil hun, cuase there are plenty of girls that get there BFP after getting a BFN the day af was due

I didn't get a bfp until 4 days after af was due so it is possible to get a bfn the day af is due and still be pregnant, good luck

I think the longer you leave it the better your chances of an accurate result. Mostly you should be able to get a BFP on the day AF is due but for some people it can take upto a week after.

What all does maternity coverage cover?
My husband and I have our own business. It is just me and him here so we need health ins. We looked at Anthem but they didn't offer maternity benefits. So we went to Aetna. They had (past tense) at the time we were looking a plan that offered maternity benefits. They no longer offer it but I was granfathered into it because it was in my plan from day 1. Unfortunately a lot of indivdual policies do not cover maternity. Why is beyond me. But there are other places you can google the offer strickly maternity, just read all the fine print and be careful. Make sure your doctor (or any doctor for that matter) will accept it before you sign up.
Good luck! Sending you bunches of

you can test the day you are due for AF but I think it is best to wait, that's what I am going to do these next times you are more likely to get a more accurate result that way. also, I was 5 days late for AF when I was pregnant with my son and tested. good luck to you hun!
