Which HPT brand gave you an early +?

I'm going to buy some HPTs on my way home from work to torture myself with...which brand do you think is the best for a possible (but probably not- eek) early positive? EPT?

I always got my first bfp's on the 1 dollar tests from the dollar store. Even before first response early results.

Thanks for the input ladies! :)

I'd normally just go to the $ store myself...I don't want to tell my husband I'm testing though...unless it's positive. I don't want to get his hopes up. Especially since we suffer from male factor infertility- he already feels responsible even though I don't blame him and he can't help it.

Anyway- we rode to work together so the only place between my work and his that I can get away with sneaking in a buy is a walgreens.

Grab the walgreen brand. I hated spending big money on name brand tests when I always tested positive early on dollar store or off brands.

I agree with the dollar store tests, they showed my bfp super quick!! then of course I immediately confirmed with 2 first response tests lol

Only like 60% of people get a positive early with those early tests. It's on the box. I never did......I'd just wait until AF is due

I never showed pregnant on a urine test until I was over a month pregnant!! And my doctor didn't do a blood one! She kept telling me I wasn't! But I heard that first reasponse is a really good one any of them with the pink line te blue lines are iffy which are the clear blue

well I bought a 2 pack of First Response and tested with one last night...BFN. I think I was just getting way too excited over nothing. It's possible it could be too early to test...but it's probably nothing.
:( My cervix position seemed to have dropped a bit this morning...and now that I'm thinking about it what I thought might have been implantation bleeding probably wasn't...it was red like a regular period...isn't it supposed to be more pink or something if it's implantation?

I bought Wondfo pregnancy strips off amazon there were about 20 of them for $6. I got a light positive 9 days post ovulation which was a whole week before my missed period.
