First of all, congratulations!
Why such an iffy answer?
It’s because home pregnancy tests must account for several big variables.
It then doubles every two to three days for about 10 weeks.
Some experts recommend waiting a few extra days, to be sure there’s enough hormone to measure.
That said, any positive result is most likely accurate no matter what day you use the test on.
By the way,blood tests for hCGare more accurate than home pregnancy tests (especially earlier on).
A quantitative hCG test specifically measures the amount of the hormone you’re producing.
The only way to confirm a twin pregnancy is with ultrasound.
However, if you do get especially early positives or have any concerning symptoms (i.e.
spotting), your doctor might want to order one.
