HPT w/dollar tree sticks!!!!!!!!!

olina · 02-19-2006, 04:29 PM

Hi gals,
I don't know if you remember me at all,
I'm actually posting in another thread (the FET queens of Heart) right now, but as I know some of you from some other previous cycles, and know you are all experts in all the HPT I decided to give it a shot.
Well, today I'm 9dp6dt from a FET, and I POAS today (used one of those dollar tree) and it came back negative (BFN). Do you know if those are accurate enough? I know it's almost over after seeing that horrible stick lying there, but I just wanted to check your experiences with that brand.\
Thanks for being there,
Olina

Olina,

I have been hearing some bad things recently about the Dollar Store brands. Then again I have heard some good responses too. Maybe it depends on what side of the country you are on or something.
I hope you BFN turns into a great big BFP!

Olina- I have heard some girls have good luck with them, but I got several evaporation lines and did cartwheels around the house thinking for the first time in my life (after 5 yrs of trying) that I was pregnant. Then I realized it was an evap line and I had a <2 beta (after having a blood test). I know evap lines can happen with any brand, but it appeared within 2-3 mins. Because of that I will not use them any more, it's just too risky. I say wait a few more days and test again or maybe buy another brand. Some say that a positive is a positive, but sometimes you get what you pay for (I know mine were $1.00 and they were worth about $0.01) Best of luck to you and I hope it was BFN b/c of the crappy dollar tree test -- and you get a BFP from a "real test" !!

Hi Olina: I've never used that brand, but I've seen plenty of false negatives at your stage with all kinds of brands... hoping that that's what that was ... are you getting a beta soon?

Good luck and please keep us posted!

Hi Gals,
My bet in this coming Tuesday, but as I'm leaving St. Louis (I'm moving to Miami!!!!!!) on the same day very early in the morning (road trip!!) I'll try to have it done tomorrow.
Thanks again for your support,
Olina

Best of luck

I never got a positive on that test. I was using the target brand and saw a faint "+" in the window but nothing on the dollar tree brand
