Pregnancy tests are expensive, and it’s nothing but a red alarm having that baby in the trash can. It’s just a game to find out who finds it first. However, mother nature has her own way of determining maternity. In fact, believe it or not, women figured out they were pregnant for thousands of years before pregnancy tests were ever invented! Pregnancy tests detect pregnancy hormones in your urine. It nourishes the egg once it is attached to the uterine wall and can be found between 11 and 14 days after conception.

Bleach

Carefully place bleach into a container with your urine. If the liquid makes small changes such a foams, and disappears, you are not pregnant. However, if it fizzes and creates a foam, you are.

Vinegar

The result is positive if the mixture creates a soapy lather and changes color. It’s negative if there’s no change in density or color.
