Dec 23, 2013 at 13:46 comment added GHP You are showing remarkable patience for your first batch. Most folks are dying to take a reading (assuming they know what that means) after about 72 hours. A general rule is that you only bottle after you have taken readings over a course of several days and verified that the gravity isn't dropping any further. If I were you, I would take a reading on day 14, and then again on maybe day 18. If the gravity is the same, and is near the recipe target FG, you are safe to bottle.
