Hi,

I would try clear blue digital. I did a boots test & 2 tesco ones & the lines were really feint.

With the digital you get a pregnant or not pregnant reading & it roughly tells you how many weeks ago you concieved. They are only just over a tenner.

Keep us posted.

like i said im too scared to do cbd, plus heard they arent as sensetive, if i get a bfp im getting a cbd, but i cant handle "not pregnant" we ben thru too much in last 18months 1 line is easier to handle somehow. thanks tho hun, if i cant get a fr i will get a cbd but i will be wetting myself taking it lol

thanks alot tho xxx

I'd go with FR if it were me. I know loads of people have said Tescos are good but i've gotten one before & it says 25miu which isnt near as sensitive as FR unless Tesco has an early detector one that i havnt seen.

Get the first response 6 days early test... if you are late then this will give you the best chance of a bfp!! Good luck xx

I got very faint lines on cheapies yesterday and when i tried a fr it came up within a minute extremely clearly. i've not tried a clearblue but want to now as is might indicate how far gone i am. good luck it sounds good if you're getting faint postives on cheapies xx

Hey

I first used tesco one and it was positive straight away, thought it was too good to be true so bought an expensive CB and it was still positive so tesco was just as good!
