Just for Fun, Homemade HPT? :-)

Lol so while i wait for bfp or af i decided that it would be fun to try a home made hpt. I know these are just wives tale and nothing proves like a real hpt but it was fun anyhow. The Sugar test was by far the most compelling in my book. You supposidly take 3 tb spoons of sugar place into a bowl and stir. If ur urine clumps and doesnt desolve its said to be a Pos result. So sitting home bored alone i tried it out with pee and sugar in one bowl, and water and the same amount of sugar in another. Well my pee test did infact clump up while stirring it whilst the water just was very grainy and dissolved rather fast. It was neat to see according to the wives tale im pregnant lol but although im on cycle day 42 and no af symptoms i havent gotten a real bfp yet, ill update this thread if i do or dont. Just thought id share something fun to pass some time. I know we all get crazy bored in the TTW. Maybe someone who is pregnant already and has confirmed can give it a try and someone who knows for sure they are not can too and just compare. Well hope everyone has a great TWW and baby dust to all!

Any new results? I did a google search not too long ago and I found a site that had alllllll kinds of wives tales. The two that stick out the most was back in the old egyptian days, women would pee on barley and wheat and bury it and if the wheat sprouts within a certain time frame, the woman would be considered pregnant. The other involved placing a chunk of onion inside the vagina over night and I don't remember the results because I was like, there is no way I'm going to try that one lol
