Bought the strip type test, not the pen one. Im actually little confused how much to dip and for how long. First time using this so anyone who has done it pls explain the steps na.
Ah, those double lines feel like a lifetime ago now that my toddler is running around! Just collect your first morning urine and use the dropper to put exactly 3 drops in the small circle. Leave it on a flat surface for about 3 to 5 minutes to get the correct reading.
The test kits usually come with a detailed leaflet, so just follow that precisely. Use your first morning urine as the hCG levels are highest then, and read the result within the specified time limit. Even if the line is faint, it's considered positive, but definitely get it confirmed by your gynac to plan your next steps.
Doing the test is super easy! Just use the dropper to put 3 drops of morning pee into the slot and wait. I remember doing this while secretly craving hot samosas, and when that second line appeared, I celebrated with a double treat! Just read it within 5 minutes, otherwise an evaporation line can confuse you.
Make sure you test first thing in the morning when you wake up. Just drop 3 drops of urine into the round window of the kit and wait on a flat dry surface. I was already feeling so nauseous back then, but seeing that second line made all the sickness feel totally worth it.
Don't make it complicated, it's very straightforward. Collect morning urine, use the dropper to put 3 drops on the card, and keep it flat. One line is negative, two lines mean you are pregnant. If the second line is faint, test again after two days instead of worrying.
Using it is quite simple, just put 2-3 drops of your morning urine in the little well on the card, or dip the strip if it's that type. Since early pregnancy is when we need to start tracking our health carefully, make sure to read the manual. I had to manage my gestational diabetes early on, so starting things on the right track is very important.
With my twins, my hCG level was so high that the line turned dark instantly! Just pee in a disposable cup, use the little dropper to put 3 drops on the card, and wait a couple of minutes. Don't read it after 10 minutes though, because that can give a fake positive line.
It's very simple, just read the instructions on the packet carefully. Usually, you collect morning urine, put 3 drops into the card's well, and wait 3 minutes. I logged my test results straight into my pregnancy tracker app which helped me count my weeks perfectly from day one.
I can barely see my feet right now in my 3rd trimester, but I still remember using that tiny strip! Just catch your first morning pee in a clean small disposable cup and dip the strip up to the max line for a few seconds. Then keep it flat and wait, don't keep staring at it anxiously like I did!
I did this test just a few months back and my hands were literally shaking! You just have to put 3 drops of morning urine into the kit and watch the lines form. Did anyone else feel completely terrified and excited at the same time while waiting for those 3 minutes?
