What should I do next after getting positive results from a pregnancy test kit?

First and foremost, congratulations in being pregnant! It is advisable for you to seek a detailed consultation with your gynaecologist who can then confirm that you are indeed pregnant and also the gestation of your pregnancy. This can be done via a urine pregnancy test, pregnancy hormone blood test (BHCG) and an ultrasound scan. The ultrasound scan is used to confirm the presence of one or more gestation sacs / pregnancy sacs (as multiple pregnancies are possible) in the womb and also the presence or absence of a fetal pole and fetal heart.
