My period is around one month late and I have a feeling something is up. Want to confirm at home first before going to doc. What is the best way to check at this stage?
Honestly, I just used a simple Prega News card at home when my period was late by 5 days. For me, the two lines came very clear. I didn't do anything else before seeing my doctor.
Just buy a cheap test kit from the chemist, its that simple. I did that and now in my 3rd trimester, my back hurts so much I miss those quiet waiting days lol. Go test tomorrow morning!
A home test kit is the best way to check after a missed period. If it's positive, just be careful with your diet from day one, especially cutting down on extra sweets, just to be safe.
Oh that feeling of waiting is so emotional and beautiful! I still remember my hands shaking while holding the kit. Just do a home kit test, it's the easiest way to start this beautiful journey.
I did a home urine test first thing in the morning when my period was a week late. Once it was positive, I asked my doctor if I could continue my light morning walks and she said yes, but told me to avoid strenuous yoga till the first scan.
I totally understand how nerve-wracking this waiting phase can be. Try to take a deep breath and do a home urine test tomorrow morning. Whatever the result, we are here to support u.
If your period is missed, a home urine test is the first step. My gynac told me that morning's first urine is best because hCG concentration is highest then. If it's faint, repeat after 2 days.
