How many HPT did you take?

happy_un-bride · June 2012

And how dark/faint was the result?

I only bought 1, so I only took one (first response). The line was quite clear. I was browsing test results on FF and was amazed at how faint the line is on some positive tests. Makes me mor confident about my one BFP.

Kate504 · June 2012

2 digital HPTs.

babydollaudie · June 2012

5! All different types too. I didn't really believe it so I had to keep checking.

Sophia1913 · June 2012

I only took one when I got the first BFP but now that I've had a little spotting, I took another one last night, even though I know that doesnt tell me very much.

Two, one by myself and one for SO to see. They were blue dye and very dark, and showed up instantly.

BabyShipp · June 2012

Just one :]

NechamaChayim · June 2012

seven.

3

nallsl · June 2012

I took two of the blue dye. The line was very faint so I got went out and bought a pink dye and a digital. I took ALL of the remaining tests out of disbelief because I had zero symptoms! 6 total. lol

I took my first at 11dpo and it was very very faint. I tool 6 more after that and my last one was as dark as the control line but that wasn't until 16 dpo.

Three, EPT, from the same pack. Figured I might as well use them, and DH wasn't home when I used the first so he wanted me to take more, he was all excited.

gsalyer06 · June 2012

I took about 6 and then switched to betas because my lines were so light. I figured I was having another chemical pregnancy, but my beta levels said otherwise. Smile

mrssmw · June 2012

I took 2. The first one the 2nd line was a little faint and it was later during the day so I waited until the next morning. I took the 2nd test that came in the pack and the both lines were solid.

ungraceful13 · June 2012

I have taken like 7. The line started really light so I watched it get darker. I also took 2 digital.

CutieBean79 · June 2012

I used about 5 cheapie Wondfos, but it was soooo light. I had one Answer brand at home, so I took that one too. Again, sooooo light. My DH didn't feel confident so I took a digital. That sealed the deal. So, 7?

Kie310 · June 2012

Way more than necessary, both times Big Smile

BittyMang · June 2012

Six and counting!

eav2c · June 2012

3. They were very faint... So faint DH swore they were negatives.

Mrs.DeliaMarieP · June 2012

I got my first BFP at 10dpo and it was quite faint.

I kept testing because I'm neurotic, and over the course of a couple of weeks ended up with about 25 HPT's of various brands.

meganiobe · June 2012

2, one cheap one and one clear blue digital one.

avee10 · June 2012

4 FRER's. I got a very faint positive at 8dpo so I kept taking them throughout the week just to make sure.

simplein06 · June 2012

1 digital... there was no debating the word "pregnant"

Strawberry9 · June 2012

Haha I should be embarrassed by this--but probably between 10-15! I kept testing, but now I'm officially done!

colinsfebmommy · June 2012

ok good I am not alone, I took 5 then my husband had an intervention with me to stop LOL

ADub09 · June 2012

a lot!!

MoreThanABride · June 2012

I took 2 last Monday one or two more later in the week, and one this morning. I only remember taking 4, but I bought six and only have one left, so I must have used 5. I had 3 dollar store tests and 3 Target tests. I am paranoid about a CP, so I wanted to take one today before I call my doctor.

I don't think taking a lot of tests is all that useful though, when I had my m/c last summer I could have gotten a positive test for probably about 6 weeks after my baby died.

amh04 · June 2012

I took 4.

Wild_flower25 · June 2012

about 10 lol

A wondfo, digital and FRER on 11 dpo, pretty faint. Then Wondfo's every day after for a like a week that got darker and darker. Around 7.5 weeks I took one last Wondfo I found and it was super light. I guess that happens when the HGC is very high.

sesigs · June 2012

11! Can you tell I didn't believe it?! I think the pink dye ones are better especially earlier because the blue dye ones tend to be pretty faint. I took a bunch of different brands because I was convinced I was getting false positives from the brand I got the first BFP with.

kprachyl · June 2012

I just took 1 Clear Blue and those lines got really dark really fast!

CityGirl07 · June 2012

I took one at 10dpo. Then started bleeding at 11dpo so while I waited for the betas I took about a million. LOL.

alkvoelker · June 2012

I took 3 First Response early tests....after I got my positive from a blood drawing.

Kingston54 · June 2012

I took 2 first response early readers - both negative. A couple days later I took a cheapie Dollar Tree one - negative. Then a day later another cheapie and DH and I couldn't decide if we were seeing a line or not. Then a few days later I took a cheapie again because I had a feeling and got a very faint line. A line is a line! The next day I took my last first response and got a definite line!

I had a box of first reponse that I bought (3) and my friend gave me a pile of her leftover cheap tests so I was going a little crazy with testing.

letitbe3 · June 2012

Four digital ones. I bought a two pack and went back the same night for a different box incase there was a "manufacturing issue", lol. Took one more that night and again in the am. I was so excited and wanted to be sure!
