I just took a home pregnancy test and it showed a positive result. I'm very excited but also a bit skeptical. How accurate are these home pregnancy test kits, how sure is the result?
These kits are usually accurate, but once it is positive, please ask your doctor before continuing any heavy yoga or workouts. I only did light walking after my gynac gave me the green light.
At my parents' place, my mom insisted we go to the lab for a blood test even after the kit showed positive. Home tests are very reliable, but a doctor's confirmation gives the ultimate peace of mind to the family.
In my case, the kit showed a clear positive on day 1 of missed period. After that, my journey went through a C-section and a beautiful recovery. Just take it step by step.
Honestly, they are like 99% accurate but my mom-brain still made me take 4 tests just to be sure! If it says positive, it is positive. Now I have a 1-year-old keeping me awake all night to prove it, haha!
They are very accurate if you test after missing your period. I was throwing up so badly that the double line on the kit was just a formality anyway. Just make sure you follow the pack instructions properly.
