TTC After a Loss

Talk to me about $ Tree Tests...

I am @ 11 DPO and this morning felt for about 5-10 minutes an instant upset/ high acid stomach.  Also, I have had a little bit of tenderness off and on with one of my brests.

I think I might use one of my $tree tests and had some questions

1.) How sensative are these tests?

2.) How long did it take to show the information?

3.) If you waited over the recomended time did the results change?

 If you have further insight on these tests I would greatly appreciate it!

Re: Talk to me about $ Tree Tests...

  • I have not gotten a BFP with them yet. I just started buying them. I do have friends that have used them and gotten BFP but were more like 14 DPO. I have been told they are very sensitive, but have only heard they are good for when you get the urge to POAS earlier than you should.

    Some other ladies here have said they are very sensitive. I think it just depends on your body and how fast you got implantation, how fast your hormones increase etc.

    I do have about 6 of these tests in my cabinet waiting to be pee'd on!

  • 1) I think you'll get disputing answers on this. Some girls say they are the strongest, some say they are the weakest.  I tend towards weakest, but I like to use them when I'm testing early and don't want to waste a drug store test.

    2)  I believe they take about 5 minutes.

    3)  I've never had an evap line, but I've heard $store tests are more likely to show evap lines.

  • I swear by $tree tests. With this last pregnancy they showed up positive before FRER, or any other test.
  • 1) I have read that they are among the most sensitive you can buy (funny, huh, since they're only a buck?).

    2) I used them when I got my second BFP, and I found that, the darker the line, the faster it showed up.  My first one, at 12 dpo, took several minutes to show up - at first I thought it was a BFN.  But by the time I took the last one, which was at like 19 dpo, it showed up immediately.

    3) N/A

    I think these tests are great - no reason to spend a ton of money on a drugstore test when these work so well!

  • I know a lot of girls say they work better for them, but for me ... I got both BFPs at 10dpo with other brands, and BFNs on $ store strips with the same fmu (I always piac instead of poas, so I can do multiple tests ... I know I have a problem!)
  • I used the $tree tests when I got my BFP.  I was about 11 or 12 dpo and it appeared right away.  I did get an evaporation line one time but it was very obvious that is was an evaporation line since it was very grey and not pink.  I have already bought some to try out next week!
