I've been doing my own 'reuse an HPT' experiment...

Deandreadf

Well first please don't judge me I know the test said don't reuse and the other one is to not look at the dye test after ten minutes.

What got me to do this was the day before yesterday I took an HPT when I was 9DPO, the first test in the box came out invalid,there was no dye movement, just a blank background. The second test in the box came out negative.

So yesterday at 10DPO I retook the invalid test just because I was bored and it was first morning urine and the blue dye started pouring until got a very faint positive so i opened it out of boredom and got two lines. Later that day I got a new box took one it was negative.

Reused the negative got a faint positive with am urine lol.

Now im 11DPO, and I've got one test and 4 days until aunt flo comes. And im praying all my symptoms I've been having wasnt for nothing.

Baby dust please?

My thoughts go to....

There is a reason the tests are single use only. They are made to be used once. Additionally, 9DPO and even 10DPO are both very early to test. Someone more savvy than I will likely be able to post the correlation of DPO and positive results. 

Also, how do you know you are 11DPO? Are you charting your temps to confirm ovulation? If not, you are guessing at when you ovulate, and therefore at when your period is due.

I recommend reading the newbie blog at the top of the page, lurking, signing up for (free) fertility friend charting account, and using pregnancy tests ONCE each. 

Baby dust doesn't go over well here either, many women who have lost LOs have negative connotations for the phrase.

-I'm judging the fuck out of you.

-eww at reusing hpts. It says DO NOT REUSE for a reason.

-blue dye tests are notoriously wrong

-fuck off with that baby dust bullshit. We dont do that here. Many of us had losses and our babies are sitting in urns so fuck that.

Damn tou.

Smells troll-y to me.

Chick Fil A over here.  And a huge chocolate cookie with chocolate chips.  Yum.

OP, take your baby dust elsewhere.  That's a very thoughtless thing to say and no one here would wish it on anyone.

Should I feel bad about ordering a bacon cheeseburger from Five Guys two days in a row? I'm leaning towards no...

Absolutely not, this sounds delicious.

I'm currently eating a cupcake. It's chocolate and yummy.

 

Edit.. yup

WTF?! There is a reason for directions...follow them. Also, no to baby dust and blue dye tests...see PP as to why.

That means she could follow directions and since we know she can't due to using a test more than once my guess would be no....lol.

 

Edit:can't spell....oops

Has anyone else ever eaten Smashburger? That stuff is vom-inducing. I had a burger from there last week and the thing mooed at me. Disgusting. I think it's going to be Little Caesar's today.

As to the topic of this thread,

I love Smashburger!  I always have to ask them to cook it well done though.

I had salad for lunch. It was disappointing, as most salads are.

I'll make you a non-dissappointing salad.  I could eat salads all day, everyday.

Is it mostly eggs and bacon? If so, yes please.

I feel like my salad eating always devolves into a search for the bacon...

I'm thinking Subway. There's not much to choose from in my town... and when I say not much to choose from I mean like 4 restaurants. What's your favorite thing from subway?

@acurtin713‌ spicy italian on flatbread with banana peppers, black olives, green pepper, a little oil, and Chipotle southwest sauce. Delish!

sister13

Follow up note to the OP - I am pretty fucking non-exclusionary, but I must say that if you would even think of doing something as stupid as this (much less writing it out for opinions) - I'm pretty sure this is not the board for you.  Try Babycenter or Babygaga.

Leaving Subway.  That's my favorite thing.

The smell of one of their breads is like vomit to me.  It gets in my clothes and follows me for days.  Ewww.

@Joy2611 yeahh sometimes their bread is overwhelming, especially if I stay to eat.

Oohhh that does sound yummy @nandaboob06

I was going to page @nachobelley to the Subway discussion, but she got here all on her own. I like boring old turkey, provolone and mayo. That's it.

I like the sweet onion chicken teriyaki with tons of veggies. Or the spicy italian with light mayo and tons of veggies.

But right now, the meatball and the cold cut combo are each $2 for a six-inch. So I'll probably end up getting one of those for lunch.

I've never tried the sweet onion chicken teriyaki, but I've always wanted to, just too chicken I guess lol. My all time fave is the chicken bacon and ranch with veggies and chipotle southwest sauce.

Eggs are gross.

Yes, yes they are. Whenever I get a salad and it has eggs on it, I almost want to send the salad back.

It's barely 10 am here and now all I can think about it lunch, gosh darn it.

I just got a peppermint white mocha from Starbucks. Yum! I might cook up some rice and veggies but I honestly don't feel like it.

I just received a bottle of wine as a gift, but because I work in a school I can't drink it for lunch.

Does anyone else here eat pretty much the same stuff every day? Like I eat the same thing for breakfast every day, lunch is one of three things, and dinner is one of four or five.

I am not picky at all and love to try new foods but once I find something I love I rarely switch.

During the week, I eat the same breakfast; oatmeal with half almond milk/water, cinnamon and either dried cherries or a tablespoon of some sort of preserves.  Lunch consists of whatever we had for dinner the night before.
