    Pregnancy Test with High Sensitivity

    Hi guys,

    Just wondering if you guys could point me in the right direction fo a high sensitivity pregnancy test? I don't want to go to the doctor unless I'm 99% sure I'm pregnant.

    I have done some research and found that First Response turns positive at 25 but there are been heaps of bad comments about them. Is there anything lower? Is there a better brand than others?

    Last time I was late and picked any brand - I can't even remember which one!!

    Some advice would be great.

    Thanks,
    Kelly

    They say on the box what kind of sensitivity they have. I usually just choose any old one too, so I can't give you a particular brand, but if you check out the boxes it will say. HTH

    A good one from a pharmacy is the Discover One Step mid stream. Good luck!

    I always found the digital HPT's the best because you dont get confused with is there a line??? or is it evaporation??? I think the sensitivity is higher- positive at 50, but if you at least get a pos with one of the others, maybe then you could try the digital ones.
    Good luck.

    I just bought a Confirm brand and guess what - there was a faint line with my afternoon wee!!

    I'm testing again tomorrow morning so we'll see how strong it is then but I'm 99% sure there's a line there!!

    I found some really cheap ones at Coles which measure an hcg of over 10! They're only cheap because they don't have all the plastic and stuff that the others have - I would head for Coles.

    Well I've done another 2 tests - the other Confirm brand and the other First Response and they've both given me a positive reading!! Confirm yesterday morning and then First Response this morning.

    I'M PREGNANT!!!!!
