Superdrug pregnancy tests

[Bananacloud]

What’s your experience with them?

Bit of backstory.
I’ve got DD 2.5 and twin DDs 1 year olds.
All ivf
I’m 5 days late, so I tested and it’s positive.
So I read you can get false positives. So I told my DH to wee on the second stick (Assuming if it’s a bad batch both the sticks would be faulty) and that ones negative
I’m so confused! Pleeeease help!
FYI gonna be going out to get a clear blue later.

I would think a "false positive" is more likely a real positive and an early miscarriage.

8 years ago whilst at my wits end trying to work out why I felt so crap I used a Superdrug test which came back with a faint positive line which almost floored me as I've been sterilised!
Went to GP to make sure I hadn't had a failure as it had been 15 years since my op to find that I was not pregnant but hormones were all over the place as I was entering menopause.

Wow, no squinting required to see that, is there?

That’s a positive.

I used the Superdrug early ones and they picked up my pregnancy before the clear blue one!

Wow that's a bold line!

I thought that Superdrug gave me a false positive but I was actually pregnant.

Yeah that isn't even a positive, that's a POSITIVE banana

how are you feeling?

Thats not an evap line

To get a false positive (within the time limit - the tests say ignore after X minutes) is very rare, some medication would give it and there are some rare cancers which produce HCG, or the woman has been pregnant recently and hormones not returned to normal - but 99% of the time it's actually accurate

I know a lot of people who have IVF with one pregnancy and then conceive naturally it's why you get told after having a baby with fertility treatment not to assume you will still have issues getting pregnant (including one couple where the issue was his sperm count which shouldn't have any relation to the IVF last time)

You're pregnant. You wouldn't get line without actually being pregnant!

I'm not sure why you would be confused that a woman who's period is late poas & got a positive but a man who poas got a negative. It clearly indicates that you are pregnant & your husband is not. Nothing confusing about that

I agree, that looks very definite!
Congratulations, your very own miracle/gift from God baby.

Eeeee totally a positive. Congratulations!

That's about as positive as you get I think.... Good luck OP!

Well I got the clearblue just to be absolutely certain.
What I can’t believe is 8 years of unprotected sex and no babies!! And as soon as I suggest having no more babies, this happens 😄

And thus the creator of contraception lays happily in their grave.

No protection = risk of pregnancy

I took a superdrug one a week after my period was late and it was positive. From my scan due date I would have been 4+2. I took a clear blue test the next day which said pregnant 2-3 weeks.

I used Superdrug with all three of my pregnancies and all were correct.

@EBM20, I'm not sure what you're getting at, but if you're saying the CB was wrong, it was actually right as they 'date' (loosely, by hcg level) from conception, not your LMP.

And so it’s official

Congratulations!

Wow, that’s amazing! Congratulations! Can’t help but feel a little bit terrified for you though... 4 (who knows maybe 5 😟) under 3? Good luck OP!!

I used pound shop tests and was pregnant when it was positive and wasn’t when it was negative....

Oops. Congratulations 💐

Congratulations!
