Is she, or isn't she...

Advantages: Accurate, fast, readily available
Disadvantages: One of the cheaper kits, but still not cheap

...First Response, and, more recently, Boots own brand version, aptly named Boots Pregnancy Test. For £8.99 you get a small, turquoise and white box embossed with the reassuring words “accurate, simple, fast”. The box contains two separate tests. You can buy a single test for £7.99, but it hardly seems worth it to save a pound, when you might mess up the first test and wish you had another, or simply refuse to believe the result and need ...
...on offer, it had extra Boots Advantage Points on it (always an important factor in any Boots purchase ;)), and the results seemed clear and easy to read. Each test is wrapped separately in foil and when unwrapped looks similar to a pen with a cap at one end and a slightly flattened, conveniently thumb-shaped grip at the other end. It’s made of white plastic and is about the size of a tube of mascara. In the middle of the stick are the two ...

Proof Positive

Advantages: Works
Disadvantages: Wrong Result

...used one though. Anyway the boots pregnancy test came in a pack of 2 and we paid £8 for it, they come singley too. Each test was seperately wrapped and there was also detailed instructions to follow in the box. The test itself is a white plastic stick with a clear cap covering the felt like material strip and windows in the main handle to indicate pregancy or not. You, or rather your wife/partner if you're a man like me, have to hold the felt end ...
...was pregnant after all. The Boots test, while it had worked, had not been accurate enough to give the correct result, she thinks she did test quite early despite having waited until her period was late so perhaps it is simply that Boots tests aren't as accurate as some fancier brands. In our future attempts to add to our family we are unlikely to use these tests again, my wife is one of those impatient ladies who likes to know straight away and I ...

For those am I, aren't I moments....

Advantages: easy to use fast results
Disadvantages: the price

...afternoon in a very busy Boots store - so busy we bumped into 4 friends, 2 work colleagues and the person who might have been called Daddy. Back in those days home testing kits were a novel idea and yes they were right next to the condoms even in those days. Having done our snatch and grab raid, we hurried home to actually do the test. On opening the box, we found what could only be described as a home chemistry kit - complete with test tube, holder ...
...times have changed! Boots along with all other pregnancy testing manufacturers now do the simple to use 3 minute test sticks - thank god! As with most tests Boots can be done the day your period is due so you'll not have that agonizing wait to find out either way. It used to be the case that pregnancy testing kits had to be done first thing in the morning due to the fact one of the pregnancy hormones Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is at it's ...

One way or the other you want to know for definite

Advantages: its cheap
Disadvantages: wasn't wholeheartedly convined about the accuracy

...won, and I purchesed the Boots pregnancy test, 2 tests pack for a cheapo £7.99. some tests ranged up to double this cost! The instructions on the back of the box could not be simpler, hold absorbant tip in your urine stream for 5 seconds, you can test at any time of the day too. For the impatient amongst us the test result is back in 1 minute - wow super fast! Lets face it, 5 minutes is a long time to know the result of this little test! So the ...
...and pee'd on! Now the back of the box shows 2 pictures to help you decide the result. There are 2 windows, a square window and an oval one. The oval windows purpose is to show the test has not worked. So a vertical blue line means it worked and an empty wondow means its not worked at all. The square window is the am I or aren't I window. A pure horizontal lines means no and a '+' sign means yes. Ok, so I've waited a minute, look at the test, compare ...

Advantages: Accurate,Inexpensive
Disadvantages: Keep looking for discount at Boots

I bought this kit from Boots.It was a twin pack at the price of £4.99(I think i remember it correctly).I tried the test 2 days after i missed my date.And it was accurate.I had one more pack so used that too after 3 days and it tested positive.My pregnancy was confirmed by my GP too.I found the product to be reliable and well priced and twin pack is a good idea for somebody whose first test doesn't comes out positive.It was easy to use.But i was worried ...

Advantages: does give you an accurate result
Disadvantages: takes longer for a reading...

...hurry to find out and boots was closer to me than any other pharmacy so I went and got the double pack (I cant remember the price though, all I can remember was it was cheap) I chose it because it said on the pack it was 99% accurate I took the first test and it was positive, I was really happy until a couple of days later I got a period, at the time I didn’t know you could still have a period when you were pregnant so I went to the doctor and took ...
...I couldn’t believe that the boots home pregnancy test was more accurate than a doctor’s test! ~~~How it works~~~ Similar to the Clearblue test it is a long White stick with a window on the packet. Hold the felt side in you’re urine stream for 5 seconds then apply the lid back on wait 3 minutes for a result. A blue control line (lets you know the test is working.) Appears after about 1 minute then if an other blue line appears the test is positive ...

Boots pregnancy test - very quick & accurate

Advantages: Easy to use, accurate, cheap
Disadvantages: None

...just not this soon! The boots pregnancy test gave me an accurate result in just a few seconds. I actually took a second one just to be on the safe side. It too was positive, it couldn't be wrong! A scan 5 weeks later confirmed this. Also for some women that want to use the pregnancy test in their pregnancy scrapbook/diary the result doesn't fade! I've used mine for my scrapbook and it looks fantastic. I would definatly advise this to any woman who ...

Am I? No. Maybe...Yes!

Advantages: It's cheap and accurate
Disadvantages: It took 15 hours to work

...was, I went for the Boots own brand thinking in my head I'm not... but just to make sure. I took the test into the toilets at boots and after about 3 mins 1 horizontal line came up...I thought I knew it..not pregnant. Later that night I told my boyfriend and after he knew I took one was pretty gutted when I told him I wasn't. What I haddent realised was the control line to say it had worked hadn't come up which meant it hadn't worked, so I thought ...
...was a faint line making a plus for PREGNANT and also a line in the control window to say it ahad worked but as every girl doubts with pregnancy tests I still thought no I can't be, It took fifteen hours to show up!! I got to work and ask my friend to have a look at it, she said lunchtime we are going to get you a clear blue!! So I took 2 clear blue tests one in the afternoon and one in the morning they both came up PREGNANT within 30 secs of the ...
