a pregnancy test should be reliable-they cost more than a dollar. Buy a real EPT test.

Just the opposite! I spent $15 on a first response kit...it said negative. I got two at Dollar Tree. The first one had a faint line. The second one had a dark purple line. I went to the dr. and I was pregnant. The brand and cost does not matter and does not have any effect on how well it works. Make an appt with a dr. to be sure. It only cost me $10 to find out at a local county health center. I could've saved $7 if I had done that in the first place. No take home is %100 accurate, so regardless you need to see a dr.

personally no, I took a walmart brand test. However, the walmart brand or dollar tree tests for lower amounts of hcg. So its easier to tell. I think they only need like 20-25hcg and an ept tests for like 50. Its weird you think you would find out better from the more expensive tests but the cheaper ones work better, I think. If you got a positive from the dollar tree one go ahead an make an appointment, I would say that you are! Congrats!

I have been using family dollar pregnancy tests and they are working fine as far as i know. I tend to take a lot of them because i am anxious about being pregnant and want to know NOW. I did get some like they use at the doctors online for inexpensive. It was like 8 dollars for 10 of them or something including shipping. Just type in pregnancy test in the search. Usually if there is any line faint or bold (as it says in the directions if you read them) it means positive. Get a blood test at the docs to be sure though. Good luck!

hi i comprehend that from my own adventure that the cheapo exams can create some thing talked approximately as an evaporatation line which additionally comes by as a faint advantageous line...we had a desire which became out to be fake by way of fact we had 2 in a row! CRap eh? So besides, in fact it became pronounced to me that we in basic terms use kind names which includes First reaction, clean Blue, etc. the two way by way of fact your line became "faint"--i could repeat the try if I have been you. Or a minimum of bypass to a doctor and have a blood try--the blood try is ninety 9% precise and beats all of the EPT exams obtainable!

all pee tests are normally right so go to my 360 page i have signs and symptoms of that you may be with child on it but i will also put it on here as well!!!
SIGNS YOU MAY BE WITH CHILD
1. Tender breasts: Many women report increased sensitivity, fullness, or heaviness within a few days. By two weeks after conception, your areolas (the pinkish or brown skin surrounding the nipples) may start to enlarge.
2. Spotting: Scantier than a period and sometimes mixed with a yellowish discharge, a small amount of bleeding may occur when the developing egg implants itself in your uterine wall.
3. Fatigue: Can't keep awake at work? If you feel tired even after a good night's sleep, your body may be going through the changes of early pregnancy.
4. Nausea: Don't think of it as "morning sickness," since it can strike at any time of the day or night. It might feel like a slight case of seasickness or a full-fledged stomach virus -- or you may not experience it at all.
5. Bloating: Many women mistake this early sign of pregnancy for PMS; the tip-off may come when your period doesn't arrive.
6. Increased urination: You may need to go to the bathroom more than usual, a symptom that will return in spades during your last trimester.
7. Stretching of pelvic ligaments: During the course of a normal pregnancy, the uterus will grow to about 1,000 times its prepregnant size (imagine a pear turning into a basketball). Some women feel their pelvic ligaments stretching to make room for this growth to occur.
8. Food cravings: If you suddenly find yourself ravenous for citrus fruits, red meat (even if you're a vegetarian), or potato chips, don't assume it's all in your head. Pregnant bodies may crave increased amounts of vitamin C, iron, and salt -- among other things -- even from the very beginning.

Honey, I think you need to stick with EPT or First Response. There are somethings you can use generic for, tampons, pads, and then there are something you need to shell out a little more for the name brand so you have better peace of mind.... like pregnancy tests. Please don't ever use a Dollar Tree test ever again, we only ever buy those as gag gifts. K?
