digital pregnancy test- technical difficulty

in Trying to Get Pregnant

I bought the clear blue easy brand digital pregnancy test because it was on sale at Walgreens. I'm 2 days late on period. I open up the stick and pee on it and nothing happens. The hour glass thing never appears. So I wasted a full bladder and a test.

Has anyone else had this happen?

They give a number to call if this happens but I'm too lazy to tell them their product sucks.

    I had this happen yesterday with my clear blue digital!  Did it come with another test to possibly test tomorrow morning?

    Just as a side note, I'm scared to use the digitals because they require more hcg than most early result tests to show a positive. If I get a positive on a reg pee test then I might splurge for the digital.

     

    And I'm worried about things like what happened to you happening, like the technology malfunctioning on me! At least with a reg test I can see if there is a line or not.

     

    I hope it works out for you :)

    Yes it was a 2 pk. I Bought it at Walgreens, it was $11.99 on sale plus there was a $1 off coupon. Were you able to use the other test?

    Unless of course the control line never shows up, making the test invalid.  It happens.

    Thanks for the well wishes! I've tried them before and they worked. Maybe I just got a hold of a bad batch. Its not fund having to wait longer, especially since body likes to give me phantom pregnancy symptoms.
