when to test?

I'm really torn. With a 4-week cycle, I'll know where things stand this coming Wednesday. But my cycles have been 5.5 weeks lately, and the last one was 5 weeks. I've been off the pill for 9 months now. I feel like I ovulated last Sunday. But here's the catch: this weekend is Carnival, so I'll be drinking heavily for three days straight... I'm afraid an early test won't show anything yet... I feel so bad about drinking, but on the other hand, you don't know anything for sure yet. What should I do... what's your advice???

    Advice for women who are trying to conceive is to not drink at all, that's the safest.
    But as long as you don't drink yourself senseless, it can't do much harm in the beginning of a possible pregnancy because the embryo is first nourished by a kind of yolk sac and only later makes a placenta and gets nutrition through that from the mother.
    The same applies if you are not pregnant, I still advise you not to drink or not to drink because that would be an immoral advice. It's your own choice.
