Where are all the first responses!?

I have been trying to get a FRER for weeks. Amazons next delivery is 11th July, every shop is out of stock, everywhere online is out of stock! Has anyone managed to find any? If so where please?

While I'm here I took a boots early detection. Been testing all week and today I can see a super faint line. Can anyone else? It's clearer in RL and has colour. I thought I was 12 DPO but I think I'm 10 according to Flo.

Just get some of the cheap strips on Amazon, the 10mlU ones will pick up early pregnancy

Following for the same reason! None on prime!

I can see a faint line 😊

Apparently FRERs have been really dodgy recently, so imagine it's connected. Boots are supposed to be the best ones! I can definitely see a line, if it has colour (I don't think these are known for indents) then I'd believe it. Congratulations!

I'm so happy you can see a line. Ive done loads of these and have never questioned a line before. These are the boots ones. I've just ordered some other early detection cheapies from Amazon.

Shame about the frer, I've never had an issue but it's heartbreaking that that's been happening so hopefully they can sort it!

To add it does have colour!

@beetsbearsbattlestargalactica definitely 😍 Same here, I used to love FRERs. I had a squinter on an Internet cheapie today but they are known for indents, so in the morning I'm going to pee on a FRER I've had for months - just hoping it won't be another false positive. 😅 Going to pop to Boots tomorrow!

Huge good luck! Hopefully we can both move to the due in march board soon!x

@LeopardLover feel free to put it here if you need line eyes!

Such a shame they've disappeared! I loved frers with my first. Giving Boots a go this time after hearing lots of good things.

I can definitely see the line! Congratulations! :-)

I for one am glad frer is nowhere to be found I think it's disgusting whats been happening recently, it happened to me and I've been left absolutely heartbroken by it and another girl I talk to on here had the same happen. I wouldn't use them again 💔

@heybb good luck! This will be my second too 🥰

@Kellyaust really sorry lovely that's awful x

@beetsbearsbattlestargalactica How exciting! How old is your LO? Mine was born during one of the lockdowns which was an odd experience!

@Kellyaust Oh goodness, I'm sorry you had that. I hope I didn't cause any upset by my comment. Obviously my experience was a few years back now so I'm a bit out the loop x

@LeopardLover that may explain it, I've wondered where they've gone too. Some shops haven't even got a label on shelves for them anymore. The nurse said to me last week that Poundshop ones are just as good as expensive ones, not that I've tried any.

@heybb oh god that must have been awful! I don't know what I'd do without the groups 😂 she's 19 months now, absolutely flown by!

Definitely going to try the boots ones! I've been using babyplan from amazon, they're supposed to be the cheap version of FRER?! Xx

I've actually just ordered those so that's good to know!

@heybb gosh no you didn't cause any upset, I found them great a while ago too but definitely not now and I'm so glad they're off the shelves! Tbh clear blue should be removed too ill post pics of my recent ones... All of them within timeframe... This was my first ttc after my miscarriage early may so you can imagine the pain and upset this caused when af arrived on time.

@RoseH36 It's a good thing they work on their issue! Interesting, that's worth knowing and probably true. It was all about the brand! That being said, I'd only trust Clearblue's digital tests (& they are a huge brand) after all the evaps and indents I've seen recently!

@Kellyaust Sorry, that's so awful. I don't trust those at all after everything I've seen on these forums 💔 it's really unacceptable!!

Fingers crossed!! My tingling style cramping has been consistent all day. I bet AF arrives tomorrow and it's all in my head 🤣💜🥰

@LeopardLover thankyou I definitely won't use them again or even test too early I set myself up for the biggest fall

@Kellyaust I understand. Sometimes the temptation to test is too hard to resist, but I vote we stick to Boots pink dye tests next time!

I hope you get your 🌈 baby soon xx

@LeopardLover yes definitely, will try boots next time or stick to my strip tests coz they have never ever been wrong. Thank you 🤞

@Kellyaust I've had issues with Clearblue before too but showing negative when I was pregnant. So hard to know which are good.

@LeopardLover it's so hard to know which to trust isn't it?

I've always just used the OneStep ones off Amazon and they've been fine. It's awful how much some of the big brand ones seem to have let people down. As if TTC isn't emotional enough!!
