I just posted about mine BFNs, well I didnt realize I bought First Reponse, NOT FRER... what is the sensitivity difference??

I know FRER will pick up hcg at a sensitivity of 5. I had a + HPT and a beta of 5 on the same day.

I'm not sure about the other tests.

Yes, there are a few different types of First Response tests out here. From the latest articles I have gathered the following sensitivities: 1. FRER-6.5-25, 2. First Response One Step-25, 3. First Response Rapid Result- 50, 4. First Response Digital-18. Good luck on getting that BFP.

Which First Response did you use? Definitely makes a difference. I had already gotten my BFP with a dollar store test, a FRER, and another brand (can't remember which one) and the First Response Rapid Response didn't give me a positive until another day or two. Good luck!

THanks Ladies!!
I used a first response rapid result, sheesh I didnt notice they were different when I grabbed it at the store. Those are wayyy weaker.
AlicaF I got a BFP with a 5 too on the FRER and a Answer early results.

I should have started today or maybe tommorow... I had a reallllly stressful day today (my oldest is going to have extensive dental surgery done on monday and we have been running around all day, he has autism so it was soooo not easy)
If I dont get it tommorow I will test again!
