[Amanda Crouch]

> My husband and I are trying to conceive. I've recently had some symptoms that have made me wonder if I could possibly be pregnant. I have not taken a pregnancy test yet because my husband and I live on our own with no sighted family members nearby. Since this is the case, I'm wondering how to find out the result of a home test once I take one.
