"No way, I'm not pregnant!

"I...I'm pregnant?.....what should I do now?........mom would be furious if she finds out this"

"God...I'm sorry...I'm so sorry...what can I do now? I'm a good student, I'm a little good girl in Church and home... I disappointed you, I disappointed all the people around me..."

"Will he be the father of the baby? does he like kids? should I tell him at all"

"There's noway telling him this, he will leave me right away and won't seem me anymore"

"I still have 2 more semesters before grad....

I think I'm pregnant.......

" I think I'm pregnant..."

"My period is still not here yet.
I know my period is not as regular as others, so I just let it be.
But it has been 2 months, and it's still not here yet.
OMG, am I pregnant?"

"I think my girlfriend is pregnant..."

“I want to know if I’m pregnant….but the pregnancy test kit is expensive….”
Are you having similar questions running in your head and drive you crazy? Is your best friend telling you something like that and worrying what she should do?
If you just say yes, what you and your friend need is a pregnancy test.

Yea, I know, walking down to the pharmacy isle and pick up a pregnancy test kit is hard. First of all, you have to find where the pregnancy test is. Then, you walk towards to the shelf with extra cautions. In case you bump into someone you know and they ask you what you are doing there, you have to make up something in a sec and run for life. Once you find that shelf, you just wish you can grab one and leave the store at once. However, something you don’t expect just stands in front of you and you are shocked! So many choices to choose from: easy reading? Stick? Square? One-test kit or two-test kit? Does the cheap ones work as good as the expensive ones? Tons of questions you don’t expect just pop out in your mind in a sec. The worst part is, when you make up your mind and pick the box you think it will work for you, you can’t left the money on the shelf and walk away. All the gut power is almost gone at this point, and you still have to squeeze out more to bring the box to the front desk and pay that “magic kit” (and pray that it’s not a guy cashier when you pay). What’s next? You have to find a place to do the test and not letting other people know!!!!!!!!!!
