Okay I x-posted that on a couple boards.
I was a little shocked to see a faint line with the dollar store test. The Equate one was okay but I wasn't impressed. So far I am impressed most by EPT. LOL I have to say though I keep looking at the Answer one to remind myself I am not dreaming. I have never had even a possible false positive with that brand. I did have a blood test done today. Not sure when the results will be back though. Maybe Monday? Then I will at least know what the levels are for those tests. I was going to buy a Digital but they were $10 for one test. Wal-Mart must be out of the one with the free test inside. GRR I don't have any internet cheapies..... I have never used them and don't have any here.
So that is my HPT showdown for the day. All I have left is one Answer one and 3 dollar stores. I am not sure if I am going to buy anymore any time soon. We'll see 
Thanks for playing.... find the line with me

You know Bobbie you could probably conduct your own study on HPT's and sell it to some lab company....think of it as subsidized income for buying more tests!

I am trying so hard to stay positive. Once the tests get darker or I have a second blood draw I know I will just sit back and enjoy the ride  Can I fast forward a week?

Okay.... you're right.... nope don't dig up the posts... LMAO It took me 18 pages to find what I was looking for once. UGH
So any guess what the HCG will come back as? I am guessing from the HPT's.... around 12. I didn't tell my Dr's office I was only 11DPO. I just said I got a + HPT. They didn't ask...so I didn't tell them I wasn't late yet. I also had my progesterone (sp?) check done too. I wonder what normal pregnancy levels are for that? HMMMM

Okay girls here is my contribution for the day.....
12 DPO and a very faint line on the dollar store. I still have two of them so I will do them tomorrow and the next day. I am going to do the last Answer tomorrow with FMU.

Lisa.... Thanks How will we all type with our fingers crossed? I love seeing lines after all these months of BFN's. I feel like telling the whole world.... but I know I can't.
LMAO..... I am sooooo glad you posted here. How are you feeling? Did you pick a name yet?
I am still in shock... it feels like years ago that we were both on the PL board. Now you will have that baby before we know it.

How fast did they come up on the dollar store tests today? If you had gotten NO bfps up until this morning, would the dollar store tests have convinced you that you had a bfp? (It's had to tell from the pic what they would look like IRL.)
I'm just wondering and thinking...maybe I need to get some more sensitive tests in case my cheapie ones don't pick up a bfp. Especially since if I get a bfn on 14 dpo, then I stop my progesterone which makes AF show up. I THINK I NEED TO PEE ON MORE TESTS TO MAKE SURE! Maybe I should get some of the Answer tests? I really wasn't that impressed with the FRER when I got my last bfp.
I'm sooo curious to hear what your blood test is. What day do you think implantation occured?
Girl, you are veritable wealth of infomation!
