IC vs 1st Response.. sept 1st added frer 14dpiui, smu, 2.5hr hold pg 2

[NovemberRayne]

Hi ladies..
I have no test porn for you yet.. but a question.

I have x2 1st Response tests (not with curved handles) and also a shed load of ICs of the brand in the picture.

My question is : are these ICs any good. Has anyone had a BFP with these alone? I'm interested in anyone's experiences

This is my first IUI and I'm currently CD23/10dpiui, I caved and tested this morning with fmu but nothing. I'm just wondering if I should forget them and use the frer in a couple of days.

Thank you all in advance xx

I would say frer 100% more reliable but I used to use the cheapie strips to test on a daily basis rather than waste too much money on frer. With my ds I did get a positive on the cheapie tests but it was a lot later on after a fairly obvious on frer. They say they those strip tests are 10miu but I struggle to believe it.

I know lots of ladies use the one step tests daily until they see something on them then back it up with frer. Good luck! X

You will get a line on a frer a couple of days before you get one on the onestep. Ic are good for testing a lot as they are cheap but not really good at very early lines x

JBree, so will you get a positive from an IC on the day of AF?

Really just depends when you implant etc but in my case yes. With my dd i got a bfp at 10dpo but didnt get a squinter of a line on a ic till 11dpo afternoon urine - i also found with them that i got better lines with them with afternoon urine vs FMU. There definitely not 10miu i got a vvfaint line on a 20miu before them x

I have used FRER's for years and years and always found them to give the most reliable and early result. It took 8 years TTC to get our son so as you can imagine I went through a lot of tests .

Hey darlings..

I caved again 11dpiui - I could see a vvvvvv faint line I tried to capture it but it's awful on my phone it did look pink and appeared within the 3 mins.. if you can see it does it look like a evap or beginning of a BFP??

I see it! Could be the start of something! Fingers crossed x

Ladies I'm so bad... I couldn't wait once these arrived this morning after fmu lol.. I only had about a 2.5 hour hold and I got this

It's so hard to pick up on the camera but it was pink. Its the same photo, one is how the camera picked it up and I played with the contrast on the other.. I hope you can see it. Now it's dried it's not as vibrant and vv faint but I can still see lines if I hold it the distance that you naturally hold a book

What do you all think??? Is this my bfp??

*edit* there's a lot of definition lost from uploading hope you can still see

I see two lines on both, hoping they get darker for you good luck!!

 

[NovemberRayne]
