If you suspect ovulation on Dec 14, that would make you 15 days post and
you would probably get a + test if you're pregnant. Remember to take it
with first morning urine, it's the most concentrated. Most HPTs detect
somewhere from 25-50 units of hcg, and the "average" woman has 25 units
10 post ovulation (wide variance here in the normal range, so even if
you test negative now you might still be pregnant!)
Good luck! I hope the New Year brings you news of a new baby!! If I were
you I wouldn't be able to wait until the 3rd! ;o)
