My kit showed positive and im happy but also half disbelief, like can these things ever be wrong? should i confirm with a blood test also? just want to be 100 percent sure before telling everyone.
They are generally reliable but can show false negatives if hormone levels are low. I got a negative first but went to my doc because of bad vomiting, and a blood test confirmed I was pregnant!
Honestly, kits are very reliable nowadays but not 100% foolproof. If your period is delayed and kit is negative, just get a beta hCG blood test done to get a clear answer.
They are mostly accurate, but sometimes God has his own timing and the hormones take longer to show up. Stay positive and if you still miss your period, get a blood test done.
I totally panicked when I got a faint line and then a negative the next day, but it was just a faulty kit. Don't worry, just wait a couple of days and test again with a different brand.
