Hi, Im 3 days late, I rang Family Planning today but they were closed and are only open till 1pm on the days they are open - problem is they are usally booked a few days in advance. I will try again tomorow but incase they are booked i was wanting to know if there is anywhere else you can get free tests? I know i could go to the supermarket now and get one but i will be soo pissed if its a neg because i could have spent that money on something like nappies - every dollar counts when your on one wage. Whats the deal with blood tests? Do i just go to diagnostic medlab and ask for one? How do i get the results? and how long does it take? Thanks Ladies xx ------------- http://lilypie.com">

My midwife's clinic does free testing, there might be one in your area that does? And if you do one at the GP and it's pos you don'thave to pay as it's covered by maternity benefits scheme, you only have to pay if it's neg. -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Most birthing clinics do free pregnancy testing or you could do what my husband suggested to me and just "wait till you get fat" lol -------------

Our midwifery clinic down here gives out free tests too. Cuppatea's DH's idea has merit, but it's oh so hard to wait!! ------------- |

Lol I knew and waited, and waited, and ended up buying it in New Caledonia, not cheap!
But at least we had a few days to get our heads around it before coming home :) -------------  http://lilypie.com"> |
