On the day before my period was due I tried this test to see if I pregnant. It came back negative. I left the test on the counter to deal with my other kids and came back to throw it away and there was a VERY light pink line. But since it was 10 minutes or more I just through it out. The next day (day of my expected period) I took it and again got a VERY VERY light pink line but only AFTER the time for the test had passed (over 10 minutes). I decided to test with a Clear Blue Digital AND a first response with the SAME urine (from a cup). I did one test then the other and waited. Again a very very very very very light pink line showed up on the First Response test (this time in the amount of time it said it should) but it was still very unclear because the line was so light I thought it might be my imagination. I did the Clear Blue Easy Digital (same pee, same cup) and it came back an unmistakable PREGNANT. Very clear! Waited a few days and took them both again (it's the scientist in me) and First Response was still very light pink but clearly there now. Clear Blue Easy Digital still a pregnant and still easier to read! :)

I always thought digital tests were for people who couldn't understand simple things like reading a pregnancy test. After using the First Response Test I now know why people would opt for a digital test. Plus you can get 5 digital Clear Blue Easy tests at most Wal-marts for [...] bucks and 3 of these First Response Tests are 18!! Go with the digital and save yourself the guess work of this test.

This is my forth child and I have never used this test and gotten a CLEAR positive result. EPT I did, Clear Blue Easy digital AND non-digital I did. Go with a different test. ANY TEST! Just a different one!

I have just got to the end of my 2 Week Wait of my 1st IVF cycle and am on official test day and so was keen to know if it was a success. I used a First Response test this morning and got a BFP (big fat positive) within 1 minute! I also did a ClearBlue+ Plus test on the same day, just to make sure, but that was negative! So I used the 2nd First Response test in the pack and that was a positive too!
Therefore the First Response test must be more sensitive at detecting hcg levels much earlier on than the ClearBlue test and gets my vote!

What can I say it works as described. I am now 8 weeks pregnant, I started testing 5 days before my missed period and to my surprise there was a faint line which got brighter and brighter each day. It works.

When we were trying for our first child, I took this test on a Monday, expecting my period 5 days later on Saturday, it was negative. I took it again on Friday and I had a very faint line, I didn't know what to think, had to have my husband look at it later just to make sure I wasn't crazy. After we decided we weren't seeing things and there really was a line, we didn't know if it meant positive or not. I didn't have any more tests right then, so the next morning I tested with a storebrand test and got a strong positive. I don't like how it gave me a faint line the day before I was supposed to have my period, it should have been a darker line. One thing I like is that +/- pregnancy tests tend to fade, while the First Response didn't. It has been over 3 years and you can still see the line. Bottom line, with our second child I used a storebrand test,because I didn't want to deal with faint lines or the higher prices. I now buy the very cheap tests, because if you are pregnant, it will work.

I have used it twice. Both times i only needed one test. It gave me my positive with in mins. I used it 3 days and 4 days before both. I saw my doc and got a blood test done. The blood test came back positive also. So i would recommend it to any woman.

I have taken this test 9 days after ovulation, not expecting anything. To my amazement small part of the test line has changed color. I followed the instructions carefully. I did not know what to think of it, so called their support line. The
representative had no idea why that happened, but speculated I might have some HCG in my system. I got very excited, but the next day the same brand test went negative, with not a speck of color. Few days later I got my period. Was it a chemical pregnancy? Possibly. Maybe the test did detect it , but I will never know for sure because of unclear results.
My suggestion is: wait till you miss your period either way, even if you decide to use this product. Is not worth the heartache and aggravation, trust me. As for me, I will never buy this particular test again. The company refused to refund me the money. I felt its the least they could have done.
