I participated in a Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for First Response. I received product samples as well as a promotional item to thank me for my participation. #IC #Ad
I loved being pregnant…everything about it…well almost everything. We had quite the journey to get pregnant and that part I didn’t like. When you are trying to get pregnant (or even if you aren’t!) you want to know right away. Knowing with 99% accuracy is really important. With First Response you can tell 6 days sooner then your missed period. 
When I was going thru infertility I remember wanting to know right away if my treatments worked and if I was pregnant. I didn’t want to wait. Pregnancy tests were pretty basic back then and I never felt confident that I was using them correctly. It was hard to hold the stick just right to catch the correct amount of liquid to make the test run. It was awkward and uncomfortable. I would always wonder if I did it correctly and would just end up very frustrated. I would wonder if it was negative because it really was, or if it was negative because I didn’t follow the instructions correctly. I always wondered if I missed getting enough urine on the stick…or at times I worried that I got way too much. I never felt confident. Another thing I hated about pregnancy tests 5-10 years ago was having to take them first thing in the morning. Of course when I would think about it and want to test would be midday. To go buy a test and then wait until the following morning was pure torture. I wouldn’t sleep at night with anticipation of how the test would turn out the next day. First Response can be done ANY time of the day. That’s HUGE!
I had four positive pregnancy tests. I did invitro with my firstborn and there was two weeks between embryo transfer and when they wanted to do a blood test. TWO WEEKS! I was so impatient and couldn’t wait. I remember taking a First Response test a few days before I was due to go get my blood test. It was POSTIVE. I couldn’t believe it. It sure put a pep in my step the next few days and I was happy to give blood and hear those three words from my doctor, “You are Pregnant!”
First Response has listened to all of your concerns and has created a very easy to use at home pregnancy test. Their newest design includes a large, curved handle, easy thumb grip, wide absorbent tip with an easy-read result window. They also have an overcap. I love that you only need to hold this test in your urine stream for 5 seconds. Super quick and easy.
Everyone knows that the hardest part about taking a pregnancy test isn’t the three minutes you have to wait to see the results…it’s all of things that First Response has changed! The new Comfort Sure Design Features really seeks to help make this process seamless!
To recap the new features, the First Response now has:
- Cutting-edge curved shape designed to fit a woman’s hand
- 50% wider tip
- Longer handle
First Response is FDA approved and is designed to detect all relevant forms of urinary hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) throughout pregnancy and detects as early as 6 (six) days before the day of your missed period. With easy-to-read results in 3 minutes with over 99% accuracy from the day of the expected period, you will feel confident.
You can find First Response at all major drugstores, mass and grocery stores and retails for around $8.99 – $15.99.
