Brave soul doing at home bloods lol. I like dollar tree tests do FXed!
Has anyone ever cracked open a CB advanced digi? I think mine was a dud. It came up not pregnant in like less then a min, but the lines inside point towards pregnant 1 wk???? Confused....
The inside of digis have two lines whether you are pregnant or not. Clearblue helpline told me the red laser will measure hcg and if its not above 10, then it reads not pregnant for weeks estimator. Here is a pic of the inside of my digitals that read pregnant 2-3 at 10 dpo, and bottom 3 showed pregnant 3+ at 18 dpo. I didnt take apart my 1-2 ones.Has anyone ever cracked open a CB advanced digi?

worried? I didnot wanna waste money on control sets so I tested with them daily every time i had to pee during tww, knowing i wouldnt have a positive when i was testing as i had not even ovulated yet at one point and then i knew i was only 2 dpo the other point. Took about 50 of them before 6 dpo tbh~Cat, wondering if you ever did "control" test's on the ICON25's, with non pregnant urine to see if a line would come up after the time frame anyways..... I'm starting to get worried....
Okay, so if I implanted sometime between dpo 6-and 9, then for a viable pregnancy what is the absolute lowest my hcg could be right now? Could it possible still be too low to pick up on my 25 mIU test? I don't want to waste the other Icon25 if something has went wrong, if you get what I mean. I am still getting lines on the blue dye cheapies (target brand up&up and equate's) but they get slightly darker some day's then other's they are really faint..... Not sure what to think.....i definitely had decent lines on the digi I did, but it also said not pregnant.....so........
you arent supposed to use serum on a urine only test (.88, etc). Only on combos. If hcg doubles every 48 hours, your urine should have nice lines. I would suggest stop worrying yourself with the serum procedure. It doesnt sound like its doing you any good as far as confusion and differing results. Its been a few days, if not a week, since your first ever test with lines. I would think hcg is high enough to show on urine by now if it was rising like it should.Here are the latest tests. for some reason i can only get a real line to come up with serum (the .88 cent one and QuickVue- it's hard to see on this one but it's there) and the line did come up on the urine strip but it's really faint. I did use actual serum with these and not whole blood. It's a process to get it to separate with a centrifuge, but it is possible. I've read some articles saying tht that some women that don't ever do well with urine HPT's. That they make a different variant of hcg that HPT's can't pick up even though they are pregnant. I know I'm probably grasping at straws here, but i'm getting worried and I don't understand why they are positvie with the serum but not on a urine test. Does anyone have any ideas? Could it really still just be too early and hcg is still under 25 and that's why no + on the unrines yet?
