A Great DIGITAL Pregnancy Test!

Advantages: Digital Display
Disadvantages: You can't buy just the cartridges by themselves

...I started out buying just the standard Clearblue Pregnancy Test. I brought this one initially as it was cheaper than some of the others (£10 for 2 test sticks). Anyway I was 7 days late but suspected before this that I may be pregnant but wasn't too sure how long you are supposed to wait before you can do the test. When I read the box I found out I could of actually done the test on the first day my period was due, so I didn't actually need to wait this long at all. I had never taken a pregnancy test before but was very pleased to find that there were very clear instructions on the reverse of the packaging. The clear instructions were in 3 steps. Inside the packaging was a questionnaire, a more detailed description on how to use the test and 2 of the testers. The testers are individually wrapped and easy to open. On opening...

pregnancy test

Advantages: tells you if you are pregnant
Disadvantages: none

...most pregnancy tests available on the market these days do exactly the same as each other it is just that you pay a lot more for testers that tell you in words that you are pregnant or tell you that you are so many days pregnant, this in my opinion is a total waste of money when they all do the same job which is basically testing for an increase in a hormone in your urine, after all why pay £15 for a stick you are going to piddle on and throw away when you can get a very similar stick from your chemist for around £1 for a pack of two or 3 and are the exact same ones used by the nurse at your doctors surgery. Read your instructions on your pack carefuly as the timing on different tests is different but the basics are still the same, you need to test after the first day that your period was due as this is the earliest time that most...

Review of Pregnancy tests in general

After 15 tests... i got a result!

Advantages: Clear blue was clear to read
Disadvantages: it is more expensive

...Well, this is not completely a review on the Clear Blue pictured, but my comparison of about 15 different pregnancy tests (ok a little egageration!) and how I got on with each of them. Eventually the Clear-Blue brand came out on top for me, but I think the comparison will be worth reading for any of you who are in the 'am I or aren't I?' stage and considering spending the little bit more on a clear blue. I am still a newly wed (October!) and when we got married the first thing we settled on was that we wanted another child as soon as we could. I came off birth control in July, but with no positive pregnancy tests by November I decided that this month I would chart my cycle. Armed with an ovulation kit I recorded my results into the website fertility friend.com and eventually found out that my actual ovulation date was 23 days into my...

Review of Clearblue Pregnancy Test Kit

Do you really know how to read...

Advantages: A true classic
Disadvantages: Content could be broadened

...and choose which works to read in any case, and almost none will follow through with the entire recommended list, there would be no real loss in doing this. The second appendix is actually a series of reading exercises for self-examination or group consideration. These are designed to be used for different levels of readers and different intentions. The authors tackle the question of arbitrary and cultural bias in manners of testing, coming to the pragmatic conclusion that, so long as academic and society advancement is tied to these kinds of testing and evaluations, it makes sense to learn how to do them, and however biased they may be in form or content, they still do provide a good measure, if not the best possible measure, for reading comprehension and retention. * * * Perhaps my one real criticism of this text (beyond the problem...

Boots pregnancy test - very quick & accurate

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

...These modern tests are done in exactly the same way as it would be if you'd had gone to your doctors - except now you can do it in the privacy of your own home and you don't have to wait weeks to find out the result! Perfect! I've never done a test until 11 weeks ago and I was so very nervous about doing a test for the first time. Especially as we'd planned a baby... 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 wants a fast...

Review of Boots Pregnancy Test Kit

Rough guide to pregnancy is a smooth read...

Advantages: Chatty, friendly style. Informative
Disadvantages: Not a technical 'manual'

...Almost five months ago now, the good lady and I found out that we were expecting a little bundle of joy. As this was our first, and we had no idea what to expect (outside of the usual advice from friends and family), we thought we'd better invest in a book to guide us through the early stages. I picked Kaz Cooke's book up on Amazon for about £8 (RRP £9.99). The book is just over 400 pages long and is largely written in a first person style, following the author's own pregnancy on a week by week basis. It also adds factual information each week, from advice on potential illnesses to combatting tiredness, morning sickness and (good from my point of view...) the little worries that are bound to crop up in the man's head from time to time such as what partners can do to help. Another useful feature is a ruler guide that shows how big...

How to get more reads and influence people

Advantages: Feedback, encouragement. What? Didn't you read the op!
Disadvantages: Revenge raters, discovering you're crap!

.... I find it hard to believe that some members don't read other opinions. When we write an opinion it is to give information and advice based on our personal experiences, which we hope other consumers will find useful. I would presume then that writers would read other opinions to assist them when making purchases or choosing services. I do this frequently. If you're going to read other opinions then you might as well rate them, at the very least. We all like feedback. We like to know that we've done a good job. Most of us also like constructive criticism: if there's a better way to do it, please tell me! If you've ever received a kind comment on one of your opinions then I need go no further. How did it make you feel? Well, you have the chance to make someone else feel like that. Use it! Encouragement is a wonderful thing, it keeps us...

How To Pass Your Drving Test.....

Advantages: Helpful , Easy To Use once you know how
Disadvantages: None

...a car , and how to do certain manouvers , this is great for if your just starting to drive. The "show me" parts are also really useful for revision before taking your driving test. However this is a DVD I have only watched once , because at the moment I am focused on passing my theory. I am yet to take my theory test , but this has been a huge help with the preparation. I don't know what I would have done without this DVD. It really does help. If you are learning to drive I would definitely recommend this DVD. Thanks For Reading! June 25th 2008 xdonzx...

Clear Blue Digital Testing

Advantages: Easy to understand results, Digital, Renowned,
Disadvantages: Fiddly, Results do not last long, Expensive

...My hubby is a technology person, so finding a digital pregnancy test seemed perfect to appeal to him. It also felt more professional to me. We bought this test for the added accuracy. It also had the added bonus of being a renowned brand. The test can be bought in single, twin or triple packs. They work out much cheaper the more you buy. A second test is always necessary in case something goes wrong or you cannot believe your results. Each pack comes with a digital reader and test sticks (1, 2 or 3 depending on pack purchased). It also has a leaflet with easy to follow instructions. However, as anyone doing a test, being eager to see the results you skim through the leaflet. With this test don't. It may invalidate your test. The tests are fiddly. You have to put in the test strip, then wait for it to light up, then start...
