Pregnancy Test Q

[penguin129]

Hi ladies! I don't go here, but had a question I thought you might be able to help me answer regarding the new FRER curved tests. I heard they can give false positives and tried to not buy one, but it was the only pink dye brand I could find in my town other than Answer which I haven't heard of. Have any of you used the FRER curved tests with good results?

Sorry for jumping in. I wasn't sure where else to post this. Please forgive me.

I got a faint positive on the new FRER trying to confirm my wondfos. Obviously its hard to say that it won't give a false positive still, but if you are getting a clear line in the time frame I'd say its a good sign.

I don't particularly like the new FRER design but I did get a + HPT with one. I confirmed with a bunch of other tests but the FRER gave me a positive too.

Thanks ladies! I'm not testing until Sunday at the earliest. I'm just trying to figure out if maybe I should take the un-opened box back and try to get something else. Google has so many posts about the false positives.

I will say though that someone on GKU recently got a false positive on one of those (can't remember who) any chance you can make it to a dollar tree or walmart?

I have 3 dollar tree tests. I was just planning on using those first and if I get a positive to confirm with the FRER. At least that is what I did when I got pregnant with DD 3 years ago.

LOL! I don't think I'd go here if I got a positive Ray. I think I'd be August 16.

I got a negative on the curved one, but it appears I ovulated later than I thought, so I might not have turned any test positive on that day. A week later I got a positive on a Walmart cheapie. When I went to get more new FRERs my option was only the curved one or a two pack with a digital and the old style test. I went for the two pack combo and the positive came up right away.

If you have some dollar tree tests, they are not as sensitive as FRERs, so if you get a positive on there, you should get a positive on a FRER curved handle or not. But you wouldn't get a positive on a dollar tree test as soon.
