stupid pee sticks..

So i took a bunch of pregnancy tests for the past few weeks. Today my period is one day late. I take 2 blue dye tests. See very, very faint lines. Ao i go buy a digital. Walgreens brand. Take 1 says negative. 2 hours later i give in and take second one, says positive. Wth?! Am I pregnant or not? This will be my 4th so you'd think I'd be an expert on the matter. I gueas im gonna go to the dollar tree and spend some money on tests. Wish me luck.

I don't trust or like blue dye tests AT all. Way too many evap lines.

I would get a First Response early result- love those.

I HATE blue dye tests. Go pick up a FRER or even a dollar tree test. Blue dye tests have a tendency to give false positives and it may still be too early for a digital.

Re: stupid pee sticks..

Did you try a First Response Early Result? I think those are most accurate.

But I do think you're pregnant, just probably very early.

The Walgreens brand one was the one that was comparable to the FRER. Gonna go pick one up soon. The anticipation is killing me.

I am not sure the digital is as sensitive as the pink dye 2 line test though
that is the one I'd get

Agreed. Though I did get a "Pregnant" on a digital test 1 day before my missed period, FRER gave me a BFP two days earlier, though faint. I'd say the peace of mind is worth the money.

Re: stupid pee sticks..

If you see any line, it usually means positive but too early for a darker line. That's what happened to me. When you got the negative digital, was it a first morning pee or a more diluted later pee?

I've experienced more evap lines than a person should, so I definitely go with digital or first response ONLY. It's worth the extra money to know for sure.

Good luck!

I find the dollar tree tests work very well. They gave me faint positives the same time I got faint positives on First Response.

I used the dollar tree brand. DH was convinced they aren't as good b/c they cost less and I explained they just involve more work with the dropper. Anyway, I tested one day early and got a clear positive. The cheapies work!!

I got positives on the dollar tree tests before on an expensive digital..
I swear by them- faint line 5 days before my missed period with my daughter.

So i took 2 dollar tree tests both had faint pink lines. That was last night. This afternoon i started bleeding, like i have my period. So maybe chemical pregnancy? Miscarriage? Oh well, sad and disappointed. Thanks for your help ladies!
