Strong lines on FRER but faint on Internet cheapie?

Is it normal to get fairly strong lines on a First Response, but a faint line on an internet cheapie? I found out I was pregnant using a FRER at 9DPO yesterday. The lines are fairly strong.

I then took an internet cheapie strip today and there is a line, but it's very faint.

I'm such a worry wort Grin I suffered a miscarriage in April so everything is a worry!

From what I’ve read on here in the past, the FRER is much more sensitive (and much more reliable) so can easier pick up your pregnancy hormones. The internet cheapie will be less sensitive, hence why there is only a faint line. I bet that line will get darker as the days go on.

Definitely look like BFPs to me on both photos, congratulations!!!!

I had a good line on a frer at 10dpo but no hint of a line on an internet cheapie until 13dpo and it was faint for ages so don't worry 😊

I definitely do not think ICs are as sensitive as advertised. In my last PG (that I also MCd in April so hugs to you for that Flowers) I got a stark white BFN on an IC at 12dpo and an unmistakable line on a FRER the same day! Best of luck to you and I soooo hope it’s a sticky bean. Since we MCd at the same time you’ve given me hope for my BFP rainbow baby soon too!! X

Yes, perfectly normal.

Internet cheapies are notorious for very faint lines - don't worry!
