As I have read alot of comments on here
about how unreliable test are! And the
main one that keeps on popping up time
after time is:
first response!!!!!!!
What is it with these test. Why are they
giving false positives. The website
peeonastick has dealt with this and many
women were told that if they disapeared to
asssume its a negative and the other lot
of women were told to treat it as a
positive! So my question is for purely
to put alot of women's mind at rest and to
learn from experience.
What do many people think of this test!
Has it been reliable for u in the past?
If so how many
did u get different result on different
days?
Would you reccomend this test?
The info will be greatly appreciated.

Maybe instead of using one type of tester
to confirm a result, use 2 or 3 types of
testers...

Totally agree with using more than one
type of brand. But as these fr test
claim to give early detection testing.
They are not doing so as I have read many
website claiming the unsatisfactory with
them!

Yes I agree. Though they are the first to
reponse but their accuracy is not a good
response...
Hahaha!
Just a joke!

Hi there
thought i'd give my opinion, I think
although theres loads of different tests,
the early detection , digital ones,
expensive, cheap etc etc, they are pretty
much all the same accuracy wise.
I bought the cheapest test that I could
find in the farmacy, a simple strip of
card that u dip in a cup of pee, no boxes,
screens or anything, and!!... I tested
the day before I was due for my af, as I
had a feeling I was pregnant.
I think in the end its simply due to your
hcg levels, every womans different, so are
the levels of hcg etc, some women never
get a positive result with urine tests, if
your levels are low even these so called
early response tests wouldn't be able to
pick up the hcg!!.
I've read alot of your posts, but I don't
understand why you are wasting so much
time and money on hpt tests, just get a
blood test done!! (unless you've done one
already) then u'll know for sure if u are
or aren't pregnant, its stupid getting all
stressed by not knowing what could be
nothing, or could be something very
important that if you are, you've got to
start thinking bout changing your
lifestyle, vits, visit to the docs etc
etc.
Anyway thats my opinion, I hope that you
are pregnant!! :d , at least all this
stressing will be worth it :d , sending
out loads and loads of baby dust your
way!!!
Xxxx

I took a first response test a few days
ago, but it came up negative. I'm now 6
days late for my period, which i'm never
late for. So, i'm thinking maybe I am
pregnant, despite the test. Just thought
i'd throw my 2 cents in about the test,
don't know if it helps.

When I was pregnant with my son (4) years
ago I took a fr hpt and t came up
negitive, the next mornign I took clear
blue that came up positive. That after
noon I took another one ( since most hpt
test come with too) I took the 3rd one
came up negitive took the forth one before
bed and it was positive. The next morning
I call my obgyn told her what was going on
and she had me come in that day for a
blood test. And come to find out I was
pregnant with my son. So just to say I
dont buy fr hpt any more.
