Digi tests vs early pregnancy internet dipstick tests
So in your experiences with pregnancy tests are the early detection internet dipstick prego tests detecting better and earlier than the digital pregnancy tests?? I've had some pink lines in the dipsticks at 9 and 10 dpo and 2 negative digi tests those same days......

I found the internet strips rubbish at detecting early pregnancy...but good at reassuring me that there is still HCG in my urine - after testing positive with Superdrug tests (UK) - I think they are the best for early detection...I used a digi for the first time yesterday - because i wanted to see it would detect a strong HCG - gave me 2-3 weeks..and I was happy with that - but personally I prefer to see the line in early detection..

I dont trust the internet strips anymore, ive had too many evaps with colour in them not grey etc like they are meant to be, so i have stopped buying them, many of the digi tests only test for around 20miu to 50 miu so it may just be your HCG hasnt built enough to be detected yet. I d go for the superdrug tests aswell as when i found out i was pregnant in nov 2012 sadly ending in mc it showed up straight away, no squinting or inverting involved. Id wait untill af date comes, maybe test that day and then a couple of days ater as HCG doubles every 48hrs. Gl
