Well so the fuck would I if I was drinking my coffee and enjoying your good news and you thrust a piss covered stick in my face!

A little decorum if you please.

Oh, I hate that ad and I hate that stupid moneymaking-out-of-fear-and-insecurity ClearBlue Digital piss-stick Angry!

It's 'semi-quantitative'. Apparently.

Omg talk about degrees of disappointments

Stage one "oh it's not a pen"
Stage two "oh I'm going to a Grandma
And THEN ....
SarahAndFuck erm, I've like totally pissed on that stick your holding...

It probably didn't go down how your dh was expecting did it?

Sarah Grin

At least they have a cap! I used one in the loos at work and took it away with me to show my husband. But at least I'd dipped it and put the cap on so there was no, y'know, outside piss on it!

The advert is annoying though especially the doctor thing. Can you imagine your GP's face if you went to ask them "can I piss on this stick?" Hmm

QueenofKelsingra · 27/01/2014 17:42

crap advert for crap product! told me I wasn't pregnant when I was 4 weeks with twins ffs! my hormone level would have been sky high (as evidenced by the large amount of vomiting I'd been doing!) still negative at 5 weeks! I will never stray from First Response! (3 weeks with DS1, 4weeks with DTs)

curiousgeorgie · 27/01/2014 17:43

I love clear blue tests!! Bloody first response would never give me a line no matter how hard I looked at it.. The certainty of seeing 'Pregnant 1-2' was amazing Grin

Agree about the advert though... Dire.

DipDabDabDip · 27/01/2014 17:49

I had to go buy a cb digital as I didn't believe the line on my cheapo asda test!

greenfolder · 27/01/2014 17:53

Every time I see this I think who the fuck tells people thet are 2 weeks pregnant?

AmberLeaf · 27/01/2014 17:54

Sarah that's what my ex did when I passed the test to him to see the result.

I said 'nooooo its my piss'

He looked bewildered.

it was positive though. Smile

Pascha · 27/01/2014 17:56

I stole mine from a box of 50 cheapos at work, no clearblue for me. No cap either though.

It wasn't exactly the joyous moment DH thought it would be.

There was a kind of lingering fear through the rest of that visit, that I might have pissed on other things besides the stick.

"Sarah can you pass me the TV remote/bread rolls/car keys?" followed by an expression of horror that clearly said "Christ, has she pissed on that yet?"
