FRER VS Regular Preg. tests

[crystal443]

Hiya,

I had my hubby go to the store and pick up preg tests and he brought home First Response preg tests :dohh when I read the booklet that came with it it says I could test from the first day of my missed period. Are these different to the FRER because those are 7 days before a missed period. Is that right? Maybe I'm just grasping at straws this cycle

I tested today at lunchtime with the regular tests and it was a BFN (of course) I'm 12 DPO and usually get AF between CD 15 and 16, I'm a bit upset because my chart looked so great this month. it was also our last cycle of Clomid and back to the FS on the 18th of this month. I'm tired of this roller coaster Any help would be appreciated my chart link is https://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/2dac45

Sounds like the new FR 'fast results' tests. I think they are either 50 or 100miu, so you are probably too early to test with them.

Good luck, hope you get your BFP in the next couple of days xxx

I had a 15/16 day LP as well, and didn't get a positive pregnancy test until a week after my period was due... on one of the tests that you can use "4 days before missed period"
So hang in there love. Everyone is different.
ALSO Use FMU! Lunchtime testing won't always work.. especially if the test is not a sensitive one.

Thanks ladies!! My temp did a bit of a dip this morning but I'm keeping my hopes up!!

The regular FRER is more sensitive. Also if you have a walmart near by grab a pack of Equate pink dye tests, they picked up my pregnancy when I had like 15 on a beta

Thanks for that, I'm in Melbourne we don't have Wal Mart but I'm going to see if I can get more sensitive tests today Fingers crossed
