Home Pregnancy Tests

If you think you may be pregnant but don't want to wait until your doctors appointment to find out if you are or are not pregnant then a home pregnancy test just might be perfect for you. There are several different brands of home pregnancy tests on the market but there are basically two different types of tests available. Both of these tests measure the pregnancy hormone HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) that is found in a woman's urine during pregnancy.

Mold Tests
The most common type of pregnancy test that is used at home is the test stick method. You hold the stick under your urine stream and the stick will change colour if you are pregnant. There are also some digital test sticks that make it very easy by showing "pregnant" or "not pregnant" when the stick is held under the urine stream. The second type of test uses a collection cup for urine instead of the stick that is held under the urine flow. These tests basically work the same though, changing colour if HCG is found in the urine.

There are some important facts to remember when taking home pregnancy tests. Both of these types of tests work the best if the test is taken the first time you urinate in the morning. At this time your urine is more highly concentrated then during the course of the day when it is diluted by how much water or other beverages you are drinking. You are more likely to get a "false negative" if you don't take the test with your first morning urine. Many of these tests advertise that they can show a positive pregnancy result on the first day that you have missed your period. This may be true but you are more likely to get the correct answer if you wait until a week after you have missed your period. Again, if you take the test too soon it may show a negative result when in fact you are pregnant. One more important thing to check is the expiration date; don't use an expired test.

These tests, if used properly, show a high accuracy rate and are affordable. Each kit usually comes with two tests and are very cost effective. Most women find these tests to be a helpful start to the beginning of their pregnancy journey.



How can you tell if there's mold growing under the carpet?
Last week, I had a spill in my house that I was unaware of. (Leaking humidfier on the floor.) I have no idea how long the water was sitting on the carpet, but it was at least 8 hours. As soon as I discovered it, I dried it as best I could with towels and then sat on the floor pointing a space heater at the wet spot for about an hour. And then I left a fan pointed at it for the next day or so and all the windows open for the next 2 days. Now, the carpet smells funny. It doesn't smell when you walk into the room, but if you bend down and smell it, it definitely has a strange smell, but I don't know what exactly mold smells like. I have no idea how to know if theres mold growing underneath. I live in an apartment that I rent, and I don't want to pay to have the carpets replaced or torn up uncessarily. Is there any sort of mold-testing kit available for purchase? Or does anybody have any tips on knowing if its mold without looking under the carpet? The size of the wet spot was approx. 1 foot. Thanks in advance for your help!

Can I sue my landlord for mold in our home?
We lived in this house for 4 months and within that 4 months I had to take my 2 1/2 year old to the er for breathing/asthma problems at least 7 times and never had this problem before. We could smell a musty smell in the bathroom that was continually getting worse. The previous tenants then informed me that the bathroom flooded from a busted pipe in the wall(the wall that separates my sons room from the bathroom). This pipe busted due to the foundation of the house cracking. They fixed the pipe but never replaced the wood or sheet rock, they just painted over it. I then performed a mold test for the air in the home....the results were sickening. I then informed my landlord of the situation and we came to the conclusion of us moving out due to the health concerns. She then had a for rent sign in the yard two days later and I told her that I highly suggest she fix the issue and she said she didn't need to because not many people have problems with mold. So I am wondering if I am able to sue and if so what different expenses am I able to sue for. And if it makes a difference in the law of mold I live in Florida. Thank you in advance your responses.

What is my next move?
I told my landlord that he needs to fix the leak in the ceiling and he hasn't. He told me to wait till spring. Now there is black sludge dripping from the ceiling in the livingroom and I just got a black mold test kit and it said to wait 48 hours for results. Well its been less then 24 hours and there is already mold on the petrie dish. The test is positive and now i don't know what to do. Should I not pay rent and go to court and show the judge the evidence of neglect or should I just move out and not pay at all? I have the rent but why should I give this man money for this hell hole? No lease. Its month to month... I am not looking to not pay rent. I want ir fixed I have asked him for the repairs. I have been denied and By the way its black mold and yes it is dangerous to people and pets. I want the repairs done. nothing more. He is paid up till this month but why should I give him money for being a complete slice of shit? I don't intend to rip anyone off but that is what he is doing to me.
