first response early response +++test??

Hello I am 12dpiui today and I started testing 8dpiui.my test on day 8 and 9 were totally - so I know the trigger was out by then.this morning I tested,expecting a bfn but I got the faintest + line.I don't want to get my hopes up only to find out I'm not actually pregnant.I have read awesome things about the accuracy and ability of the frer to detect pregnancy.anyone have any experience with it?my beta isn't til tuesday and that's so far away to me right now.

Hi Teri -

I just dealt with something similar - I took a FRER test yesterday and got a faint +, but thought it was too faint to be real. Took another last night and another this morning and they are all faint, but definitely there. I believe FRER detects an HCG of 25. So I went to the store at 7am this morning and got an EPT certainty digital because they need an HCG of 50 to read + . . . . . and lo and behold, + it is! I have pictures of my tests posted on the thread titled "It's a go!" under Parentling after Fertility Struggles, but it is a loooonnnnnggggg thread, so check the last couple pages - i just posted them today.

Good luck!!

Some First Response tests are VERY sensitive. It picked up a positive for me back when my HCG level was under 10.

So I'd say you are DEFINATELY pregnant. Wait a day or two and test again and it should be getting slightely darker (easier to see).

That sounds like a to me! I got a faint line at 10 dpo and it was the real deal. If you really want to be amazed, pick up one of the digital ones because there is nothing in the world better than seeing the word "Pregnant" on a little stick! I can't wait to hear those awesome doubling beta numbers!!

Congrats Teri!! I tested again this morning and it is so much darker today - it' a great sight to see, isn't it?

And I agree with mom4kitties - those digital ones that say "pregnant" are so worth the extra money!
