Experiences with Target (Up & Up) HPTs??

I know-- beware of the blue dye tests. But I went to Target to pick up some more FRER, and grabbed a box not knowing they were blue dye.

Can they be trusted? Like two of them?

I swore I would never use blue dye tests because I got my BFP on one when I had my chemical, and don't trust them.

But I got the faintest of lines on two. I mean, faint. It's so early I have NO business even POAS, but I have a shorter LP and I got 3 BFPs on 9DPO with DD, including a digital.

For good measure, I did a FRER and a digital and they were neg, which is no surprise. I am certainly not counting these two tests as conclusive. Just interesting...

I've gotten what I though were possibly BFP's on them and they just turned out to be the typical blue dye mishaps.

I hope that's not the case for you though!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I just don't know how they can continue to sell them if they are always wrong. I mean, I am very practical and would not be completely crestfallen if they were wrong-- I knew what I was getting into with them. But not everyone is like that...

As for me, time will tell!!

It doesn't make any sense to me either.

Good luck to you!

Just did the 3rd test in the pack, because I figured what the hell and same thing-- faint line right away... I mean, it's SO early and I am not using FMU.

I am ok if it's false, just want to know! So impatient.

Can you upload a pic? I'm pretty familiar with what the false ones look like (I've fallen victim one too many times lol) Maybe I can tell or maybe somone else can.

I've heard about these blue dye tests. Are they a certain brand???

I'd like to know so I can stay away from them-

Thanks

i would never use a blue dye test again either. i also got a BFP with one on a chemical - but that does make sense since even with a chemical there is HCG in your urine. they are just known to be unreliable so i wouldn't trust the results. also when you got a BFP with a previous pregnancy has absolutely nothing to do with when you would get one on a subsequent pregnancy. every pregnancy is different.
