How many tests AFTER your BFP?

Tink112011 · March 2011

Tell me I'm not alone... I went grocery shopping today and came out with another package of pregnancy tests. Part of me just wants to ease worries of mc, part of me just wants the delight of seeing that second line showing up.

How many times did you POAS after the day of your BFP?

MamaCat21 · March 2011

I POAS a million times in the days following my bfp, but it was on IC tests, not expensive ones.

I took five total. I have stopped now lol. Make this your last box

October987 · March 2011

I took 4 of them. 2 First Response. And then 2 Clearblue Digital.

I had 8 IC's laying around so started POAS at 6dpt. I got a very faint + at 7dpt and continued to POAS until all the ICs were gone. I still have 1 or 2 left over that I probably won't use. I totally understand how you feel though.

Last time 6... and I kept them all until we came home from the hopsital with DS. This time... just one. Stick out tongue

I have been peeing on one a day since my BFP on Thursday. I can't help it.

I have taken 4--first was negative (5 days before I was supposed to get period), the rest were positive. Actually I took the 2nd one just to prove it to DH because he didn't believe me, and the 3rd because it was sitting there in the cupboard all alone, lol

ETA: What's an IC test?

An "internet cheapie". Theres places online where you can get a bunch of test strips for really cheap. For example, Wondfo brand from amazon.com. I think I got 25 test strips for around $6.

Jing22 · March 2011

I still am... after trying to so long it's exciting to see those 2 lines!

jb2rn · March 2011

Embarrassed many. let's just say that

as well as OPK's, because I had a lot of those.

chrisnevelyn · March 2011

Last week I went to the DR for the first time and took another one before I went to make sure I was still pregnant. lol My DH thinks I am crazy!!! I am all out of them, so I think I am safe.

boymamaco · March 2011

A lot. But I already had them all - mostly ICs and a three total FRER's (didn't use the FRER's after my betas though.)

Fallon621 · March 2011

Haha I need to make a clicky for my chart but I am still taking IC's daily and I am over 5 weeks.

LegalPawn:
More than I'd like to admit. MH just made me throw away my collection of BFPs.

I think I started at my digital for days - gross, I know. I took pictures of all of mine.

evanssj · March 2011

I have also taken too many to count--JB can you really use OPK's too? I have like 40 of those left!!!

[Deleted User] · March 2011

Just took my 4th today! Big Smile

I took 2 dye tests the first day then a digital the next morning. I'm not having many symptoms, and it's still sinking in for DH, so he actually asked me if I was going to take any more tests yesterday. Smile

I decided I'll take one no more than once a week until my first u/s, then stop.

Dct119 · March 2011

I've taken more than I'd like to admit but since I don't get to see a doctor until April 5th I feel the need to reassure myself that I'm still pregnant. I only have one left that I'll probably use the day before the doctors just to make sure. I know it's all in my head but it does make me feel better.

JMack1117 · March 2011

14. I love the Dollar Tree tests--they've allowed me to be neurotic AND frugal! I stopped testing last week though, so basically I took 14 in a 5 day period.

Kates03 · March 2011

I don't know the exact number but somewhere between 10-15 Embarrassed

. 2 digitals, 2 FRER, and the rest were ICs. I took a lot the first few days bc I was in such disbelief after seening BFNs for 6 months, but then after that I took them just because I liked that the test line showed up before the control line and was twice as dark!

Nikkoli110 · March 2011

Lots, and lots, and lots of times. But they were on IC's, and 1 FRER that was left. I also wrote what down on each what DPO it was. I'm planning on taking a picture of the progress of how darker they got. And it was also for myself to see them getting darker, may mean nothing but it makes me feel better!

littlewinnie15 · March 2011

A lot here too. Until I see a heartbeat/start showing, I'll probably to continue to take one here and there when I have those panic moments that something is wrong. Call me crazy, but if that's what it takes to make me feel less stressed then that's what I'll do!

Punter2009 · March 2011

3 altogether so far. Got my 1st BFP last Wednesday and the line got stronger each day. My boobs are slightly sore and i hardly feel nautious but which makes me l want to do another test(s)

Test as much as you want, its reassuring to see the 2 lines appear

annily81 · March 2011

OMG a million. I have a bunch of Amazon cheapies so it's hard not to. I'm trying to cut down to once a day, lol. Stick out tongue

cdegnan · March 2011

I took only one. My doctor had me come in the next day for a blood test, which confirmed I was pregnant, and that was that.
