3rd Trimester

did you...?

Save the pregnancy test?

My DH thinks its gross that I saved it, especially since the proof is in the pudding. But I wanted to keep it. So we kept it.  

Re: did you...?

  • Mine faded, but I have a pic. :)
  • Yes, that's why they come with those little plastic caps Smile

  • I saved it for a bit - I just kept thinking I was dreaming after all those negative tests! Eventually I took a picture and threw it away.

  • I did...but I have NO idea where it is now...so maybe DH threw it out? He's not really a keepsake kinda guy

  • I always think that I want to keep things like that, but really what are you going to do with it?  We kept in on the kitchen table for about 3 days after the BFP then threw it away.  I will have enough random crap once the little stinker gets here that I do not need to start hoarding it now.
  • I did for a while, but I took 3, a bit excessive I know but I wanted to be sure. I kept them until they started fading then tossed them. I still have a pic on my phone of them though.
  • I kept both of mine - however I haven't looked at them since the BFP : )
  • I kept all of mine. Theyre in the kids keepsake boxes with their ultrasounds too. My 15 year old sons still has a bright pink line :) I don't think it's gross to keep them. It was the moment we all knew for sure that our baby was in there.
  • No, it was used for diagnostic purposes only. :)

  • Nope. I dont like the idea off keeping my own urine sampe in a baggie or something else. I have proof in my belly for everyone to see, and I dont think im going to forget that I had a positive test, my son will be proof of that. Everyone is allowed to get sentimental about things.
  • No, just took a picture.

    This. No offense, but the thought alone is grossing me out. More power to ya, if that's your thing! To me, it's along the same lines as keeping my son's foreskin if we were to circumsize (sp?) him....

    I did, however, take a pic of it!

  • Haha nooo. I took a pic but we went straight for the digital and the battery died. I did keep it for the couple of days before that happened... but I would have thrown in out not long after that point anyway.
  • yep! lol i have all 4 (...dh didn't believe the line was dark enough)!
  • Nah- I have a pic, and that'll last forever. PG tests fade.
  • ewww I bet those stink!  I took a picture of mine and then threw them away.
