I want to punch myself in the face for this post, but Wondfos can suck my nuts.
Wondfos have been complete crap lately. When I started TTC they seemed to have had way less issues. I hesitate buying them ever again. I have tried the Babi ones but I do not think they are as sensitive, Has anyone tried the SurePredict brand from amazon? And if you have, please tell me what you think.

I am not so much interested in the pg tests, i usually test with the .88-ers from Walmart. But I was tired of spending $13 for 7 answer brand tests lol.
I am open to suggestions for other brands, I just always see people posting about wondfos so I figured I would try them this month.

But I think we can all agree that the name is stupid.
I guess I'm lucky. I haven't had a problem.
I do have to wait the full amount of time to check the OPKs though. Old batches I could tell immediately if they were going to be positive, now I have to come back after a few minutes. I tested out my trigger last cycle on the HPTs. They faded out and then showed clear negatives.
Unfortantely, I think it honestly depends on the batch you get. It's a bit of a crap shoot.
Trying to get knocked up since June 2012 ~ Dx: PCOS
BFP 7.24.13 ~ EDD 4.2.14 ~ m/c 9.16.13 @ 11w4d
BFP 5.4.14 ~ EDD 1.12.15 ~ stick little bean!
TTGP 2013 Best Blog ~ Fruit ~ My BFP Chart
The only thing I noticed is they take forever to show a positive. Even this last month right after my trigger I would just have to pee and leave it. I watched one once and it showed a line move across the window so I never watch them. Prob 8 weeks in my pregnancy the line showed up quicker but I still had to pee and leave it.
I have a stash of FRER that I use if I ever have any questions, because those things are awesome. The line always shows up soon and I've only heard one person have a problem with them.
Since then, all three batches had the old normal packaging and all have given me positives.

My last batch of Wondfo hpts were lot W00130174-3 exp. 01/2015. I had 20 from that lot and never worried about evap lines until a couple of days ago. I took two at the same time and one had a super faint grayish line show up around the 5 minute mark and the other developed a stronger purple line at about 10 minutes. Neither were a textbook positive!

Thanks! I took too wondofo hpts, and got positives on both before the 5 minute time limit. I am hoping they are true positives!!!
Thanks so much for the information!
Trying to have baby #1 since April 2013
DH SA March,May 2014 - Low motility and shape issues. On vitamins per RE to help
Me testing April 3, 2014 - FSH and LH good, HSG showed blocked right tube
April 29, 2014 - First RE appt., right tube needs to be removed and possibly left also if
it's bad too. RE suggests going straight to IVF
June 4, 2014 - LAP/HSC and unexpected endo. removed but tubes got to stay!
June 13, 2014 - Post-Op appointment. We decide where to go next since main issue
is MFI influenced. Trying naturally until decision... Repeat SA in September. Aiming for IUI #1 November 2014.
I've never had an issue with wondfo OPKs. I did once buy wanfu OPKs that were sold as wondfos and they did not work for me. I would get obviously negative wanfu OPK and a positive digi OPK from the same pee.
I've always used wondfo HPTs and never had an issue with them. I did find out during my c/p that they are not nearly as sensitive as FRERs. My wondfos were stark white when I was getting obvious lines on a FRER. I don't test during break cycles and from now on I am sticking to FRER for testing for any treatment cycle we do.

Grrrr, I was going to go Beta or bust but now I'm thinking about testing out my trigger. ;-) I guess if I'm going to order some cheapies I need to do it soon.
I've never used the Wondfos @BankerBSN but I've used the ones from Earlypregnancytests.com and they seem just as shitty. I've never gotten a positive on them even for my CP when I had a clear positive on a FRER.
