Ok, just took ept and found out I was positive. How accurate are these? Call my primary care doctor on Monday and say I want to come in and take a pregnancy test? This is my first pregnancy after MANY years of trying. Please, I need all the advice you experienced moms can give. I am so nervous!!

Congrats.... I took an ept test also and mine was positive and I was told they were pretty accurate... I am now 18wks pregnant.

Yes, go and get a test done at your dr. and good luck

I understand that they are completely accurate as the hormone that colours the litmus paper line is only in the body of a pregnant woman. If you read the instructions, it does say that there is a medication that can cause false possibtives but nothing else. Congratulations!!!!
