My period is 3 days late and i think i should confirm now. Im confused between the home urine kit and the blood test wala. Which one is actually reliable, what did u all do first?
I know how nerve-wracking it is to wait and wonder which test to do first. Start with a simple home urine pregnancy test first thing in the morning. Once you get a positive, go to your doctor who will suggest a blood test and an early scan to reassure you.
I totally understand the excitement and nervousness you are feeling right now! The very first step is just a simple home pregnancy kit which you can get at any pharmacy. It is such a beautiful moment when you see those lines, and then you can visit your doc for a blood test.
You don't need to spend a lot of money on expensive tests at first. Just buy a basic 50-rupee home pregnancy card from any local medical store and test with your morning urine. If it is positive, then book a budget-friendly lab test for beta hCG to confirm.
I felt so many butterflies in my stomach when I took my first home urine test! It was just a simple strip from the local chemist, but seeing those two lines changed my life forever. After that, my gynac did a blood beta hCG test to confirm it officially.
Honestly, just buy a cheap home urine test kit, you don't need anything fancy to start with! If those two lines show up, congratulations, your sleep-deprived journey begins. After that, your doctor will do a blood test and a scan anyway to make it official.
I am in my second trimester now and I still remember how anxious I was before doing my test! I did three home urine tests because I couldn't believe the faint line. Did anyone else keep retesting at home before finally going to the clinic for the blood test?
