How long for One Step POAS to show BFP?

I am due my period today and had slight cramps all day yesterday, but different to my usual AF cramps.

This is our 3rd month TTC and we used preseed lube this month. I have had sore breasts and increased CM this last week, so I decided to take a test. I have a load of internet cheap sticks and it came up with BFN.
They are the One Step brand, not sure if they are early detection or not. How long before you got your BFP on One step if AF was late?

Thanks for reading.

Thank you for all your replies! I'm really hoping this month is my month, as no real sign of AF.

I might nip into Boots after work, thanks for the tip!

If I am testing the day AF is due, do I need FMU? Can't wait until tomorrow!!

I got a bfp on one step the day after af was due.

I got a very obvious and indisputable One Step BFP but I'd left testing until I was nearly a week late. so 20dpo.

My One Step test was BFP at 18dpo but it was really very faint. Day after I did frer and got a nice clear positive. I've got a thread with pics called something BFP but too faint for 16-18dpo.
Pregnancy and ovulation tests are 3for2 at boots at the moment!

Clear blue should be accurate on the day of your missed period. I think it's when you're testing earlier that they're not quite as good, is those cases first response are more sensitive. But you should be good with a CB today. FX for you let us know Smile

Ahhh, so if I go and buy a FRER I might have more luck?

I have a Clearblue in the drawer, was keeping it for to confirm when I get a faint line on One Step.

Are Clearblue any good?

I was 18dpo before I got an extremely faint positive on a One Step. I got a very clear BFP on a FRER 13dpo!
