Home Pregnancy Tests

first two times i used the brand that they use at the doctors those little kinda square ones, bfp cam eup straight away, with paris was a week late, with ayja was the day i was due for AF. both were quite light but definately there.

With paris, i had probably no symptoms i thought, was completely surprised and not expecting a positive test staring back at me!.. but was quite tired, thirsty as and had been eating like ahorse.. was working long hours in the lead up to xmas so would come home and make a plate of 20 snax crackers with luncheon and cheese on them and polish them off, was also cooking amaingly stupid amounts of minted baby peas to eat. lol.

Ayja i was sick, i had back pain, i felt gross and i just had that "feeling" from about a week and a half before was due for AF

This time, i was late, and as i got later i got nauseous, but had been having stupid cycles so didn't thinki could be, (i do sometimes feel a bit nauseous int he lead up to AF anyway crazy enough) but on the day i took the test was overwhelming urge to be sick andit stuck through till about a week after i had the scan and found baby had no heartbeat and stopped growing. I woke up one day and the Ms was gone.

This last one, was a clearblue 1 test kit from the supermarket, took all of 2 seconds for the second line to appear but then was already just over 6 weeks then i think.

I had a HPT purchased over the internet that showed up a faint line 11DPO (approx. 3-4 days before expected AF). I then used the Discover brand HPT bought from a pharmacy at 12DPO (2-3 days before AF) and the 2nd line came up very clearly.

This has only just happened for me so no real signs of pregnancy yet, about the only thing is a little nausea.

For me, the First Response pee in a cup ones came up way darker than the Clearblue mid-stream, so I'd recommend getting them... they're cheaper too.

So I got a faint positive when my period was about 3 or 4 days late, but first response was much easier to see.

I'd also get the 3 pack, cos it works out cheaper and even if you do one test and find out you're pregnant, you'll want to do more to make sure!! (Yep... this is the lady who did six... and still didn't believe it until the doctor did the seventh one lol).

All the best
