My cycle is irregular so I’d like to buy some pregnancy tests in bulk. I’ve seen One Step strips on Ebay/Amazon. Have you used them? Are they accurate? They have normal and early detection. Thanks Smile

@Greensmoothie1
I used these and liked them when I was TTC with my daughter, you can see my semi line progression with the BPF and then I took a digital when I thought my AF was past due(irregular sort of cycles)
Hope this helps!

@Coastaldreamer thank you - this was interesting. And also congrats on your baby! So you started taking pregnancy tests 11 dpo? What does BPF mean?

Thank you! She's now 19 months so we're now TTC #2!

Bpf means big fat positive Smile

Yep, although you're supposed to wait till your AF is due... but I couldn't help myself and saw the faintest of lines that first day I tested. The digital I did about a week later

@Coastaldreamer awww best of luck! I think I may have had implantation bleeding (spotting) the other day. I’m going to have to try to hold off before I test… will be difficult!

It's the most difficult thing the waiting @Greensmoothie1 !

Let me know how you get on, best of luck!!

I got my surge/peak yesterday so got straight on with DTD Grin

I definitely rate them especially for the price! This was my test 3 days before my period was due. My daughter is 10 months now Smile

I used them and they were 100% accurate for me. And because of the price you can start doing them really early and not worry about it!!

AnxiousWeirdo · 11/01/2022 10:38

I used them and they detected two pregnancies really early on. They're my first port of call when I think I'm pregnant 😅

Chanel05 · 11/01/2022 10:40

Detected both my pregnancies at 9dpo.

irishfarmer · 11/01/2022 10:41

But if you are getting them for irregular periods I would recommend OPK tests. The easy@home ones are great because you upload a pic to their app every day and it give you your LH reading so you know when you are ovulating. I got pregnant 1st month ttc this time using them. I had the one step OPKs before and without the app I didn't find them as easy.

Yes I was really impressed with them for the price.

This was 3 or 4 days before my period was due.

They always worked for me - never had an evap line or an incorrect result.

Sorry for jumping on an old thread, but I need some advice. I explained in more detail on another thread but basically i've been getting a mix of positives and negatives with One Steps over the past 3 days. All the 'positive' ones came up straight away. I've seen lots of bad reviews about false positives so need a second opinion?
Clear blue is negative. Thanks!
