Which test is best?
You hear people say they don't trust the Blue...
But the new FRER are not supposed to be to good??
So Pink or Blue?

I am a 100% all the way Answer tester... never have a problem with them and they are really darned accurate as far as my experience. On the downside, they will pick up a chemical pg... tried the new FRE on my last pg last month and while they work, they will be faint positive compared to an Answer dark positive. HTH!

I'm an Answer girl too. It was BFP when I was pregnant and BFN when I wasn't. I've used the FRER in the past but I'm now stricting Answer.

I always loved the digitals and the FRER tests.

I have only the one pregnancy and at that time I used a grocery store brand cheapie and then when it was positive we went out and bought answer. I dont really have a preference as long as they give me the BFP! LOL

I start out with IC's. Would rather waste those than something more expensive. If I get a hint of a line on an IC and I'm sure it's not an evap then I go to the FRER's and once those lines are dark enough to me I go to digi's.
Long story short: PINK!!!

I am not an early tester, so I prefer digi's - no guessing on pretend lines there.

Pink for sure. My first BFP was on a blue line test and it was quite obvious but since then I have prefered anything pink lined.

answer. the frer's that are out now are ok of you are a late tester, but if you are an early tester - that line is always there and it confuses those of us who are obsessing over faint lines!
that being said an EPT showed a bfp for me even before the answer did, but .... i have a bit of doubt about blue.

WEll with my son I did a EPT since I was 2 wks late it was a blarring pos and no second guessing it..
Well I have used blue dyes like store brands and all and gotten nasty evaps with them, but I have heard they also very sensitive and start showing sooner..
Pink dyes I have used the old FRER, Answer, and IC.. The IC I have gotten alot of evaps on, but the old FRER and the Answer brand have never lead me wrong.. So I guess it is really up to you and your prefrence cause you can get evaps with pink dyes too..

Love to always back everything up with a CBE digi
