Question

frer test vs doctors pregnancy test

I took a first response early pregnancy test this morning, it came up positive at the 2 min mark, it was faint but deff obvious and even shows up in pictures. I took another one maybe 30 mins later to confirm and it came up positive at the 2 min mark, faint once again but deff obvious that there was 2 lines so I took a frer gold digital test it came up negative saying no! So I went to the doctor maybe 2 hours later and they gave me a pee pregnancy test and it came out negative I came home and took another first response early pregnancy test and it came out positive again with the faint but obvious 2nd line. The doctor drew blood but said she'd call me in 2 days, maybe the doctors test isn't as sensitive as the frer and maybe the frer isn't as sensitive as the digital. What do yall think? I just don't understand how I would get THREE POSITIVE HPT if I wasn't really pregnant. Help!!!!!

I'd say you're pregnant but it's early days. Digital tests are the least sensitive, then the doctors test then the FRER, I'd say your hcg level must be between 6 and 25 right now. You'll know for sure once you get that blood test result back. Good luck!

I would argue that the doctor's test isn't any more sensitive than other home pregnancy tests. The blood work however, that will be the best test. In fact, when I get to work tomorrow, I'm going to check what level of HCG our tests detect.
