Fertility & Pregnancy Tests

Clearblue not always so clear

Advantages: Can buy box of 2 at reasonable price, quick & easy to use
Disadvantages: Not always a clear result

When I first suspected I was pregnant I went to my local boots store to purchase a test & was surprised by how many different version you can buy. As I was unsure about which test to go for I decided to get the one I had herd of the most which was clearblue. It says on the box that it's 99% accurate so that swayed me as well. The test is a white stick with a cap on one end & the window which tells you if you are pregnant or not. You can either buy ...
...2 tests wrapped separately (you also get instructions inside). Quite a few tests tell you to do them first thing in the morning but this one you can do at any time of the day. The result takes about 1 minute or so, so there is not to much pacing around waiting for the result. How to use: There are very clear instructions on the box & inside the box so you cant really go wrong. There are two ways to take the test: Take the cap off the stick & pee ...

Review of Clearblue Pregnancy Test Kit

Easy and cheap

Advantages: cheap, easy and reliable
Disadvantages: none

...Finally I noticed Predictor pregnancy test which contained two tests I thought that this was a good idea as it meant I could take one the one day and then another the following morning just to check whatever result I got was 100% right. On getting this home I opened the box and found two tests both sealed seperatley which was good there was also the instructions which after reading was relieved to see it was extrmeley simple, it also explained how ...
...understand. All you needed to do was hold the stick pinting downwards in a stream of your urine for 5 seconds. Simply re-apply the lid and then within four minutes your result will appear. There are two windows the one is a control window this will go a darker colour to say that the test is working once this has cleared in the second window a dot will appear if you are pregnant, no matter how light the dot is means the test is positive. The pregnancy ...

Review of Predictor Pregnancy Test

Making Babies for Beginners

Advantages: more sticks than average in a pack, easy to use, reliable results
Disadvantages: more expensive than other methods, especially if it takes a while to conceive

...to give them a shot. Clearblue are one of the leading brands, and since pregnancy is not a decision anyone should take lightly, I was willing to invest a little more into a brand I felt I could trust. I figure it’s a time when you are more than willing to take as much advice as anyone can give you and you could be feeling a little vulnerable, so you are probably more likely to go with something that you feel will be reliable and trustworthy, even ...
...all the sticks had gone! Clearblue comes in at £19.99 for a pack, so it’s not the cheapest option, but it’s a little like paying for convenience food: the hard work has all been done for you, you just have to pay a little more to make your life a little easier. And if you are stressed or worried about getting pregnant, chances are you will be willing to do that. Good luck if you are trying! p.s. It worked for me first time! ...

Review of Clearblue Ovulation Test

A Pregnancy Test for just £2.99

Disadvantages: Takes 2-3 minutes for results, have to wee in a container

...over another year. Anyway, ANSWER calls itself the one step pregnancy test. For £2.99 I knew it wasn't to be a new fandangled digital test although I was surprised to see how basic it really was. +++ THE KIT ITSELF +++ For this 'one step' test, you get a box that is about 12 cm high that includes some instructions, a test stick and a cup. You getting the idea? The 'one step' requires you to do two steps!!! +++ THE INSTRUCTIONS +++ The outside ...

Review of Answer One Test

Taking the pee

Advantages: Cheap, accurate if used properly.
Disadvantages: Fiddly to use, not very accurate if done too early

Reveal pregnancy test is one of the cheapest I have come across, and I've used a few in my time. Reveal comes in a little pink box, more like a small tampon box than the long, thin, blue boxes you normally associate with a pregnancy test. So if you wanted to be a bit discreet then it's not immediately obvious what you have in your little chemist's bag. You can get them as a one or two test box, the one test box retails at about £2.99 and the two ...
...local Vantage chemist but they are available at Boots (though not on their web site), Lloyds and most other pharmacies. I don't know of many people who would buy a one test box - you usually want to do more than one to be certain, whichever result you are hoping for. Also, if it's your first time you might want to have another handy in case of mishaps. The box contains either one or two individually foil-wrapped indicator sticks. A tiny cup and ...
