Pregnant after a Loss

I cannot stop POAS!

I hope the betas this week will help me chill, but I wake up every morning thinking this is a dream & POAS again.  I know it's still brand new, so it's probably normal....

    LOL. This. I wrote the time/date on all of them and lined them up on the bathroom counter to admire. After about two week though, DH was tired of looking at my dried pee, so I took a picture of them and then threw them away. It was actually hard to throw them away Embarrassed

    I'm sooooo happy for you! Looking forward to good beta #s!

  • I chose to quit keeping track of how many I hpts I used, but there definitely was at least one a day.. and I couldn't stop that's why I had to donate them towards the cause.

  • Pee away! Whatever makes you feel happy and brings you some security! I only had one stick to test with because I knew I'd be trying to "use" them all up in the end...

  • With my 2nd pregnancy I took one test and a week and a half later went to see my midwife.  This time, I took 3 tests of my own, but they were digital so then I got a line test from a friend who had an extra just to make sure it was a dark line.  It's hard when you have to wait a number of days to go in for a beta!

    FWIW, I peed on lots of sticks, and continued temping for like 10 days (don't recommend the temping, btw!)

    And they ended being lucky for me too!  Maybe I should send the rest off to someone else!

    LoL.  I'm having the same problem...  I've got them lined up on the table... I'm just waiting for DH to tell me to throw those things out... I can't bring myself to.  I keep going back and looking and analyzing to make sure the lines are really getting darker and it's not just in my head
