any experience with Equate tests?
so I've taken about a billion HPT's in the past 4 days, and so far all of them have come up positive except for the Equate (wal-mart brand) +/- ones that I took this morning with FMU. I've tried getting into the dr. but they won't test me until 2 weeks after my missed period. (it's only 3 days, but I"m normally like clockwork...28 day cycle.) I'm going nuts. I am spotting a little but it's brownish blood when I wipe (sorry if TMI). Any help would be appreciated...thanks in advance!

I used the Equate +/- tests when I suspected I was pregnant. I took one a day before my period was supposed to start and got a -. I took one 2 days after my missed period and I got a very very faint +. So I took one more(i had 3 pack) a day later and got a very very faint + again. All of those were taken with FMU. The positives were so faint I didn't trust them so I went out and bought a clearblue easy digital and finally got the Pregnant readout I was wanting to see so badly. If all the other tests said pregnant I would trust those because the equate do not seem very sensitive.

Ive only used the equate brand and they were both correct for me!!!
EDIT: Im gonna suggest to go to your local health dept and take a test there b/c its free and accurate also!!! That way you can get started on prenatal care asap if you are!!!

I only used Equate, and they were always accurate. If you took a bunch that were + and only one was -, I would go with the + one. I am fairly sure in saying congrats!
