    It's been a long journey. TTC since 9/06. multiple IUI's and IVF's and 4 m/c's. IVF#3 = BFP, twins, induced at 34w6d due to baby b passing away (no explanation). Delivered on 35w1d, Baby A - baby girl, and Baby B - baby boy, our little angel.

    Ditto the others.  I think the non-digital CBEs are blue-dye tests, right?  I only used the First Response Early Result two-line pink tests.  They had some at Walmart that have 3 in a box instead of 2.  There's also a coupon inside the box for $2-3 off.  It was a good deal, especially if you open it up before checking out and use the coupon.  ;)  DH wouldn't let me, lol!    Just make sure the box says it has another HPT in it, some of them have those "fertility" tests in them as a bonus instead.

    After my experience last time, I'm a big FRER fan.  The cheapies took a few more days to show up.  I'm not sure about how sensitive CBE regulars are.  The instructions should say the min amt. of hCG they detect.  GL!

    I've always used FRER.  I've heard/read that the blue dye tests can give false positives which would be truly evil, so I've stayed away!
