Cheap vs expensive hpt...

Mommyagain · Jul 26th, 2011, 10:19 AM

Im on cd25 today. Today and yesterday I took the dollar store hpt. It says it can detect 25miu. Sooo wouldn't that make it the same as say a first response early result hpt? They say you can test 6 days sooner.

I don't know when I ovulated but I know I did. I had bloodwork on cd20 and it said I had a progesterone level of 7.something. I had ewcm on cd15 and during the morning on cd16. So when do you ladies think I could test and get an accurate reading.

I am so anxious to find out if I'm prego or not!!!

the cheapies always state that they are high sensetivity but i remeber when i was PG i was doing IC's and got a faint faint line, thinking i was only just pregnant bought a CB digi, and it said i was 2-3 weeks, so had been wasting all that time on the Ic's !! xxx

Wow!! I have some clearblue digitals (5 days sooner) and FRER (6days sooner) but I was saving them for when I get a bfp on a cheaper one. I was going to use them to confirm. So maybe I should use a more expensive one to test...

yeah its just a risk u take it depends how desperate you are to find out, which im guessing is VERY like we all are. its so tempting to use an expensive one just to make sure, but then again t could be peeing your ££ down the drain, literally hehe xx

I wish I knew how many dpo ovulation I was...

I'm feeling very desperate about knowing!! I'm kind of feeling like it's going to stay negative though.

My mum always says to me why waste money on expensive ones? aslong as you buy them from a shop not weird internet sites, if they didnt work then they wouldnt be allowed to sell them.
