What do people think of these one step pregnancy tests uk cheapies.

[Polkadotpea]

As pictured, what's your views and experiences with them, are they good or not, did you get a positive on a different test before these?

Thanks! X

they suck!! I have been getting lines on all other tests since Sunday. Total bfp on a frer and walmart cheapie. Even got "pregnant" on a digital on Monday and still even yesterday I barely have a line on those. It is so faint that if I didn't know I was pregnant I would think it was an evap and it takes ages to even develop. The pink handled clinic guard are pretty good. I got a faint line on them on sunday too. They aren't showing a ton of progression and they develop a bit slowly but they are definitely positive. My period was due yesterday and I was 13 dpo. If I have one left I will go use it and show you a picture of it.

Hey mine this morning at 9DPO was bare! I took a FRER it was BFN @ 9DPO this afternoon after I posted this, only 1.5hrs after drinking 2 glasses of squash! It was a bad move, I feel I'm definitely out this cycle

Congratulations on your BFP! Thank you x

Don't feel out. These tests are terrible. The frer might not have showed positive yet because your urine was most likely too diluted. Good luck. 9 dpo is still very early. In the future, I wouldn't get those tests though, they are crap.

I haven't had a very good experience with these either I was getting negatives when I was getting 2-3 weeks on digi indicator

Thank you for the PMA ladies! I think I'll stop with those cheap crappy tests because it's so disheartening to get a BFN especially if it's meant to be a BFP like you ladies got!!

Im going to have to have more control and hold off testing how many DPO were you all when you took the digi & cb digis? I have 1 FRER left and 2 CB digis, and don't want too test way too early again and get a BFN and then have to buy more to test again. Hmmm when to test I'll be 10DPO tomorrow. X

Hi polkdadotpea, to answer your question I took a sainsburys cheaper digital first on the day AF was due and got pregnant even though the clearblue blue dye I took was a squinter and the one step negative. I love the supermarket own cheaper brands personally.

They worked for me but! Were a lot lighter the line I mean than any other brand I used ie frer, superdrug, cb digi ......
But they are cheap and are handy for early testing ....if u see a lil hint if a line on them then u can go spend a lil more money on another brand for confirmation

They were the firsts tests i used to confirm both pregnancies (first one at 10dpo, this one at 8dpo). Lines were very faint and take a while to get darker but they've always been bfn when i wasnt pregnant. I got my bfp on a frer, obvious line, at 11dpo this pregnancy & a 10dpo bfp on an asda test. So there are other tests out there which have darker lines at the same time but obviously these save £££'s

I found them fine as far as cheapies go. Although I wasn't early testing. I tested because I was late. But this was the first test I used with this pregnancy and I used them to test progression too. I have no idea how many dpo I was because we were NTNP.

Thank you for all the replies and congratulations to the ladies who are pregnant. I took a FRER today at 10DPO and got a faint pink line! Will test again on Monday! I posted a new thread with my test in it! Baby dust all round xxx

 

[MissingBubs]

Brilliant! Congrats. Off to find your other thread!
