BFP with strips, BFN with digital?
Has this happened to anyone? I tested BFP very early so it’s been very faint, 4 different test (2 different brands but all strips) the last test yesterday was easier to see though than the 3 from the day before.
But this morning, 2 days after first faint positive, I tried a digital with MU and it came back not pregnant. I’m not sure if that is common if it’s super early but they’re supposed to be equally sensitive, in fact the one I used yesterday less sensitive..
Including picture of yesterday’s test..

Digitals can be tricky and usually they require much more hcg. However, consider this example:: If a strip has a sensitivity of 25, and your hcg is 20, you can see even a faint line with your naked eye and say, yes that's positive. A digital also has a sensitivity of 25, and your hcg is 20, but the digital uses a little computer to determine yes or no, so it says no because the line isn't as dark as it is programmed to see. Your hcg is the same and the sensitivity of each test is the same, but the results are different.
Good luck!
