First time using a home kit and honestly thoda nervous. Not fully sure about the right way to do it with urine, like how much and when. Can someone explain the proper steps na?
Use a clean dropper to put urine on the testing card, preferably first thing in morning. I had such bad morning sickness that even doing the test made me feel nauseous! Make sure you sit down and breathe while waiting.
Don't go for old home tests like salt or sugar in urine, they are not reliable at all. Always buy a proper medical kit from the store for accurate results. If you feel any cramping or spotting, directly contact your gynac.
You just put a few drops of morning urine on the kit and wait. I remember watching that second line appear and my heart was beating so fast. Is it normal to feel completely blank and scared at that moment?
The best way is to use a clean collection cup and a standard medical kit. When I called my hospital desk, they specifically advised testing with morning's first urine. If you get a faint line, just book a beta-hCG blood test through your clinic.
Just buy a standard urine pregnancy test kit from any chemist. Put 2-3 drops of your first morning pee into the small well on the strip. While waiting for those 5 minutes, I literally planned my celebratory golgappa party!
