TTC's from canada...a Q for you

amandajane · 02-24-2006, 08:56 AM

Hi ladies, Im TTC # 1 and 7dpo
just wondering which HPTs you canadian gals are using. I've been hearing so many names tossed around these forums and i dont think we have a lot of those brands up here, at least we dont in SK.

Ive been using the first response, but i've heard lots of people arent very pleased with them so i'd like to switch, of course it never says how much HcG they measure on the box...any reccomendations for cheapest and most sensitive?

thanks!

amanda!

Hey Amanda
I use First Response as well - but I found from a website that Life Brand from Shoppers is supposed to be 25 mIU. I have used them but have never been PG so I don't know how good they work

I've also used the ClearBlue ones that show a + sign and a - sign - again, never seen the + so I can't comment on how early they detect HcG

I'm in the states, and I love FRED! I've had pos. with them and never an evap. line. Don't know what you've got available, but lots of baby dust!

thanks gals,

i'll nose around some more, im so anxious i guess im just trying to blame it on the old pee-stick. This time im gonna try and hold out on the HPT till the 18dpo and see if my BBT stays up. then i might go to the medi-clinic for an PT...with klein and harper who knows how much longer our free system will be around

!

hope i can hang on!
