My period is 5 days late and im feeling a little off but i keep second guessing myself. Dont want to get my hopes up again. How did you all confirm it for sure, just the home strip or did you wait for blood test?
A urine test at home is reliable after the missed period, but the surest confirmation is a blood test and ultrasound at the doctors. So test at home first, then see your gynac to confirm and start care.
I did the home strip test first and it showed positive, then went to gynac who did a scan later. Thats how I got sure. The home test is a good first step.
Easiest way is a home pregnancy test after your missed period, do it with first morning urine for clear result. If its positive, then a blood beta hCG test and a doctor visit confirms it properly. Symptoms alone are never enough.
