Internet Cheapies are crap!

[JoWantsABaby]

Anyone else agree? Had BFP 30/12/13 with superdrug's and lots of Clearblue digis but nothing at all from ICs, even today. They're advertised as ultra sensitive - 10iu - too.
To be honest, it's making me a little anxious but my super drug test was def positive this morning. Period due today and no signs but still can't rest my mind, worrying about a chemical/early mc

I had a blaring positive FRER but nothing on the IC.

 

[JoWantsABaby]

Thank you, that makes me feel better! I notice you're a few weeks ahead of me, are you still testing?! Have u had a positive IC at all yet? X

 

[rray0560]

I didn't ever have a positive IC that's all I was using at first until I finally bought a digi and it was positive. I won't use the internet cheapies anymore lol

 

[Ashley8806]

I tested with a digi and a couple blue dyes (was having cramping, was wanting to make sure I still had a good line) - no more IC's though that was the last one I used. It dried with a *hint* of a line but nothing that would make me think bfp for sure!

I have ordered some . I am finding my lines are faint, but I think I am testing early. I got two faint positives on Early predictor tests so I should get a positive. I found when I was pregnant I got a blearing positive on FRER.

I only got a very faint 2nd line (after the time limit) on the internet strips- but my hcg was 99 and I was getting positives on everythig else.

 

[Laura2806]

I think it completely depends on the ic, some are awful, others brill! I got a positive digi the same day as a very faint line on ic but then got brill progression. I wouldn't worry if less sensitive tests are def BFP's, congrats! X

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Thats so odd! I always tested positive on wondfos internet cheapies before a digi or frer would pick it up in both pregnancies!

 

[Celesse]

Never had an issue with them. BFP's at 12dpo with #1 but I was inexperienced and probably missed it at 11dpo. #2 was 11dpo. #3 was 10dpo and this pregnancy was 11dpo as well.

Tested everyday and watched the lines get progressively darker with no issues. This pregnancy started as 2 sacs and the lines got darker at a faster rate than my other pregnancies. I did switch batch numbers at around 17dpo this pregnancy and test got about a day lighter and then progressed from there.

Takes the full 10 mins to show positive at the ultra faint stage and gets quicker as hCG gets higher.

With my first I only tested on IC's and didn't get a positive till I was 7 days late and it was so faint.

With this one I got a faint on a first response and nothing on an IC. I even did one the day I got my HCG at 14dpo and it was super faint but my HCG was 135!

I had a good experience with ICs. They gave me a very faint line around 3 days before my missed period. I got a strong line with Clear Blue. After that, I kept using the ICs and the line got darker and darker. The test line eventually got darker than the control line. That was probably a week after my missed period.

 

[LoveCakes]

I've never had a problem. I used the one step ones from amazon and got a faint positive at 11dpo then progressively stronger lines. You do need to wait for the line to develop though.

 

[StaceyKor]

I cant fault them tbh...got faint bfp at 9 dpo first pregnancy and 8dpo this time and it got progressively darker each day. It definitely takes longer to get super dark than most other tests.

This was 8dpo

And this was 14dpo (day AF due)

The next day my frer was like this

Totally agree! I was getting strong bfp's from 10/11dpo yet here's my progression pics and you can see it took a while to get strong lines.
No idea what happened on 17dpo either, made my heart sink though. Yet the ones I have are suppose to be early ones?
don't worry about them at all!

 

[JillieBean]

I kind of hate the Wondfos too. I bought them because it seems like everybody loves them, but I got a positive on my FRER several days before I could get anything on the Wondfo.

 

[pandi77]

They always worked before everything else for me but they were definitely a bit faint. Whenever I got 2 days of faint bfp's on Wondfo I would use a frer to back it up.

 

[Laurhilou]

I used to think that the cheapies were silly and didn't work however I tested bfp on a FRER 3 days ago, then 2 days ago I got 3 BFPs on 3 cheap tests which cost me £1.50 lol!

 

[Rainbow2103]

I've never had a problem with them, they aren't as good as FRER obviously but you get what you pay for. I wouldn't have tested everyday multiple times with FRER or I'd be bankrupt lol xx
