Walmart cheapie evaps! Kind of rantish..

[happycupcake]

It's really awful, they should pull them off the shelves when this happens to sort the issue out. It isn't like they don't get complaints. I have probably made up a fair few of those lol!
But really though, how they get away with it I won't know. This was one of mine, the photo doesn't do it justice, it's a CB early detection. On here it looks like only half is blue, but in real life it was more blue and a solid line. I was pissed to say the least

Cupcake - That you had there was the mother of all lies !!! Just oh my god! I agree that blue should be recalled and then just never issued out again. How do they stay in business with those test! I honestly feel like they do this on purpose along with the indents so we see hints of lines and have to buy more. All about money these days I feel like if all of us at BnB banded together we could make the ultimate HPT haha! One we could actually trust!

 

[happycupcake]

I was so tempted to believe the first one, all the others had faded away but you want to cling onto any bit of hope there is left but I knew it was false, then the following day the second one out of the pack did the same thing. Evil tests.
I agree, we probably could invent a much more reliable test! And yes, I didn't think of it before but it probably is just a cruel trick to make more money as you do go out and buy more. I have made a few complaints to First Response about their awful indents but the don't reply

 

[Diedrek]

FRER didn’t respond to you!? I hear so many girls saying they’re complaining to them but I always assumed they’d be refunded at least! I know when I got a bad batch of Wondfos last year they refunded my money within days!! And they were super understanding of how devastating those false positives were! That’s how it should be .. maybe the CEO’s of First response are all men Cupcake do you have any Lo’s?

 

[happycupcake]

Nope they ignored me each time.
Do I have children? Yes, three bio children and two step children

Wow cupcake that is a killer line! That had to have been devastating!!!

 

[happycupcake]

I know, both were the same. It would have been had I not already had all others fade away. I knew it was another chemical so although a part of me wanted to believe those, I knew they were faulty tests so I was more annoyed that others may have faulty tests also and if they haven't done any others they would assume they were pregnant. Blue dyes are awful for faint lines where you're not quite sure of colour, but if you had these lines you would believe them! It makes me angry at the thought of all the tests that do this and lead women to believe they're expecting only to have af show up

Right Katie? My heart hurts just looking at it! I’m not sure when you took that Cupcake but after I had mine last year I’ve honestly NEVER touched another CB again!

Cupcake- You’re trying for your 4th? I bet the older ones are so excited! Some of them I imagine anyways haha. I’m the youngest of 4 in my family so I’d really like to have 4 myself but I’m still trying for the first so we will see! I’d like them to only be a year or two apart like me and my siblings were. Just in reality I know it’s super unlikely. I’m sure you have a beautiful family & are an amazing mom so congrats to that! And to ttc the newest GL mama!

I used those a couple of cycles ago, I won't be touching those again!

Yeah, my fourth, our third together and our sixth altogether. Only my eldest knows as the two youngest wouldn't understand (they're four and five and both autistic) and the other two would tell everyone and we don't want anyone to know. My eldest is 16 so he understands why we want to keep it to ourselves but he's excited and happy about it.
I wouldn't say it's unlikely, I used to think that myself until our DD surprised us! Ignore any midwife who tells you you won't be ovulating if you breastfeed, because that's rubbish lol! I thought the odd time here and there won't hurt, I'm breastfeeding and haven't had a cycle, and I only gave birth weeks ago ... cue most positive test I have seen in my life so far lol
So it can happen pretty quickly. Many say after a miscarriage you're sometimes more fertile, and I wonder if perhaps the same is true after birth. It's nice to have small age gaps, it's also pretty good having a wider gap too. There's eleven years between my eldest and second, then just under eleven months between second and third lol
If you don't have a small gap between children at some point then just think of it like this: babysitter for free

I got a bad evap on that type of test the other day too, it was a thin line so I knew it was an evap but someone else may not have. I keep telling myself I'm only getting dollar tree ones from now on but I'm always at Wal-Mart so it's easier.

[happycupcake]

Ouch, that's a pretty evil one given it has colour to it

 

[Diedrek]

Eek that is awful!!! I learned my lesson though! I won’t hate these completely I just know that if I get a faint line in the first 10 minutes to just go get a FRER and let that decide before I test with any more cheapies and give myself false hope! I’ve seen ladies who are pg use these and they show up obviously a bfp
