High street pregnancy test?

[tinselcat]

Does anyone know what the best sort of pregnancy test you can get on the high street e.g. Boots is?

And when would you advise taking it, relative to O or AF due?

Hey

I'd aim for a First Response as can pick up from 6 days before the is due

Even if it shows negative doesn't mean you not pregnant though, implantation could of happened late, your HCG hormone could just be low

Anytime from 10DPO is normal for testing but best bet is to wait for the to be late

I agree with Kezza, clear blue are good tests too but they can be expensive so if you wanted to get something cheaper i got my first bfp with asdas own.

Goodluck hunny x x

I've always used the cheapies from places like B&M, Home Bargains or Poundland - they're from 10miu upwards, usually around 25miu, and are pretty good at early detection a few days before AF
Easy on the pocket (and the line-eye!) x

I was a bit surprised by how expensive some of the tests are! I think I'll just have to wait until Sat and then get one for a few quid (or less if poss as you suggest!)

Instead I satisfied my baby-related cravings by buying a tub of folic acid microvitamin tablets, which I can at least start taking now whether it's BFP or not!

If you are happy to wait a few days, I bought the really cheapy ones online from Homehealth-uk. They are the sensitive ones (10miu) and I bought 100 tests for £15!! You can choose whether or not to split them with OPK's as well and you can choose how the quantity is split - I got 60 x OPKs and 40 x HPT's.

Hey hunni .. I agree with the others on FR - although they are a tad pricey! If you wanna save abit of money they have a few cheaper ones in quality save that can detect 10miu and there only 89p for two xx

I'm still getting Christmas cards in the mail so this month internet-ordering is out

My closest discount/cutprice stores are either 99p or Morrisons or maybe Superdrug I think - don't hold out much hope for 99p (looking at their stock list online) but does anyone know if Morrisons sell any? I won't be able to go there before the weekend so it could be handy timing...

Morrisons sell to pregnancy tests for £4.29 (ish) that what i just got my bfp on two weeks ago x

And congratulations on your recent BFP!!
