BFPs on internet cheapies & Dollar Store test. BFN on Clearblue digi??? I'm 12 dpo.

Help! Any of you ladies get positive after positive on internet cheapies (Clinical Guard) and/or dollar store HPT and then negative on a digital (Clearblue)??? I'm 12 dpo. Is my HcG level not high enough? If so, I'd say ICs are more sensitive than most expensive HPTs... It's a real downer, though, seeing "Not Pregnant" when other tests say different.

Digital tests have a higher HCG threshold, usually around 50 mIU. A lot of internet cheapies pick up around 10 mIU and dollar store tests generally pick up around 25 mIU.

If you really want to see "Pregnant" on a digital, just wait a couple of days and test again.
