Okay so pretty much all us POAS addicts use ICs because they are just so cheap. You can use them in large quantities without taking out a second mortgage. We also spend quite a bit of time complaining about evaps and indent lines. Most of us have a couple of the "good test" in reserve for when we finally get a BFP because no one quite trusts ICs (and it's an excuse to pee on another stick). Well we say it is to double check the results, even more likely we turn ourselves half blind and completely crazy at 7dpo staring at evap lines, then give in and use the stash of FRERs kept in reserve, only to get BFNs and run out of all tests at 10dpo which doesnt really leave you any further ahead because you don't know if the BFNs are because you are not pregnant or if it was just too early to test. Once you really get a BFP on a FRER you have to go out and buy a digi to confirm.
We are all looking for the test that is dirt cheap, 100% reliable and gives a BFP at the earliest possible moment . Everyone has favorites, Clearblue, FRER, dollar store, Tesco, Wondfo or one of the ICs that just seem to be called "Pregnancy test". Most of the time our choice, at least in part, has to do with the price. My question is what if price was not important (you know, when you inherit the family estate from a distant billionaire relative you didnt know you had, get your first hit single, or win the lottery and have so much money you dont know what to do with it).
FRER is a bit of a gold standard (although the new curvy ones are getting a bit of a bad rap). But there must be something out there that is better than FRER anyway, I mean if you are actually trying to see how much money you can spend? Digital tests are great for those who want an answer in black and white but they are not particularly sensitive. I have heard rumors of black dye, cassette tests being the Rolls Royce of pregnancy tests but I dont actually know anyone who has used them.
So if you had a spare million to spend on pregnancy tests what would you buy?
