That I can grab from the grocery store or pharmacy? I noticed last mo I can't find the sensitivity on the boxes a lot of times. Gotta pick up some tests today to start testing tomorrow!! I want to get whatever can pick up the earliest. :cabbage:

Ooh me too, stalking!!
Frer detects 20iu/l
Here is a site that compares the sensitivity http://www.early-pregnancy-tests.com/compare.html
Per this site frer are 25 not 20 as I stated above.
Thank you!! What is FRER? IDK if I'm gonna be able to hold out til tom GAH!!
just popping in here...i have pregnancy tests from Early-pregnancytest.com and they claim to be more sensitive than First Response Early Response...but what I have seen is that they earliest they detected for me this and last was extremely faint barely readable at 10 days and FRER were clear as day...so I would get those...the pink ones seem to be the best...
FRER= First Response Early Response...PINK box
Have any of you tried Equate (it's the walmart store brand)? The http://www.early-pregnancy-tests.com/compare.html said htey are just as sensitive as FRER but they are cheaper...
Cool thx!
I'll be stalking you too Dune, GL!
Sookie, I forgot to say in that other thread congrats on the new one on the way! How are you feeling? Hope the other LOs are well!
Yup, frer is the most sensitive :)
I love this website...lots of helpful info, lol, and it's just plain entertaining :laugh:

I didn't buy them because I still have the $ store cheapies at home. Another bfn this morning... I was hoping it was because I had bunk tests :crazy:
I have the super sensitive one from early-pregnancytest.com too... It helps with the urge to POAS at 8dpo but I guess I'll use frer from 12 DPO from now on.
In my experience, it seems that the First response and the Answer brand tests are the most sensitive. I tested with an Answer test at 8-9 dpo and got a super faint line and then had a blood test 3 days later and my HCG was only at a 20. The answer tests must detect the HCG super early :)
This.... but the answer tests around here cost 1/2 as much as the frerQuote:

Yes, the Answer tests are a lot less expensive! And the grocery store is less than the drug store for sure. Considering I am at the grocery store almost everyday bc I am the worst food planner EVER I will pick some up there :)
Sookie, glad you are feeling better. I am on FB but not on that group. Let me know if you can add me and I'll PM you my FB info!
I can't add you, I am not the admin to that group. PM me your name(first and last ) and I will look you up and see if I can try to at least.
I got a positive FRER and CBE digital and my beta the next day was only at 12. I must be a freak. :laugh:Quote:
