Thanks I still have more i'll probably take...It just amazed me how awful those two tests were...Hopefully I won't ever have to ttc again, but if I do, I will no longer use those 2 tests...I do like the earlypregnancytests.com OPK's the best though.

Megan, I think we agreed that no one has to turn their siggy off, especially in your own post that you already forewarned that pregnancy was mentioned.
I found that my pink ICs (looks like I had the same brand as you) had lines about the same as FRER. Not bad considering they cost 1/10 the price.

Megan,
I found this same thing out last month. The best results were from the pink handled 25 pack for 5 bucks on Amazon. They were even darker than the FRER and Answer.
I even had the tests that detect 10 from there and they were worse than all of them.

Ya know, I was testing everyday with Dollar store tests after I got a dark line with Frer and it took almost a week for the dollar store tests to get dark with a HCG of around 3,000-4,000

I just got the pink handled ones in the mail the other day and am really excited now! I haven't even o'ed yet and ready to Poas now!
When I got pregnant in December it was the same way for me. I could barely sort of see a + line on the early pregnancy tests blue stick but got a + on my digi right away. I don't think they are good quality.

So, am I understand this correctly your walls are now full with positives HTPs?
It could be a selling point one day.
I also wish you girls did not turn off your siggy I love to see how far along you all are, please don't turn it off.

I thought your house was decorated with HPTs. I thought I remembered you telling me that you made your own abstract art by gluing unpeed on HPTs to the wall then flinging pee from your pee cup at them in a crazy pattern. You said you called it 'My HCG Life' LMAO

I sure hope the Wondfo's I ordered are the pink-handled ones like yours. They were pink in the main picture on Amazon, but then when I ordered them, the picture that showed up in the "Order fulfilled" window was blue... I'm a little worried about it, I really wanted pink ones. I should have just gone with your sender, those tests are fab. Ugh!

When I was hanging out in TTCAL when I got pregnant with Patrick (he was an oopsie, so I wasn't actually ttc, just wishing, lol), *Bobbie* was ttc her Matthew (we were due the same month), and she used to make art out of her hpts. lol She'd put it in her sig. It was hilarious.
And Megan, that's amazing that they could be SO different!! But even the light lines make me giddy with happiness for you!

I had an IC with a blue coating and it was super faint but got a positive on my digi with the same urine!
Brittanie, I so remember Bobbi doing that and I really miss her.
