I have taken so many... starting at 4 days before my missed period, I fell prey to the "get a result 6 days sooner!" That didn't work for me, though. I had to pee on many sticks (under 10, but greater than 5, before getting my positive). I will be taking a less ambiguous one tomorrow - the kind that says YOU ARE PREGNANT, now stop peeing on sticks! lol!
I would have been fine with the one, but I got my BFP on a dollar store test, and dh wanted to be certain so ran out and got a 2 pack of clear blue tests. So since there were 2 tests, naturally I had to take both :-P
After I voted I realized I was wrong. I peed on three, not two. One 6 days early which was an expected BFN, the second was three days early with a lovely faint positive, and the third was two days later with a much more visible line. Once I saw that I was good.
I am using up my wondofos by taking one every other day. I also have another weeks estimator test that I'm saving for the 6 week mark. I really want to see that 3 +!!
I answered based on how many sticks I've peed on this cycle, not in total over the last 8 months! If I can't even think about how much $$ I've peed on since we started trying.
Oh yeah, that would be a much higher number for me too...
I took one, didn't believe the positive, so took another one from the box. Still didn't believe it, went out and bought a digital. The next day the symptoms started to hit so now I'm convinced.

Oh crap I lied...I took two a few days before my BFP, so that brings me to 5. I have four weeks until my appointment and a TON of tests left so I'm sure there will be more...
Wow, I guess I'm a weirdo and only peed on one! I had bought a pack of two at the drugstore (those suckers are expensive!) and thought we might have been pregnant in January so I used one then. Only had one left... period was late, line was dark. I'm good with just the one.

I only peed on the one, but I still have another from the pack. I've been contemplating taking that one too, but would FTFO if it wasn't positive. My OB won't see me until 5/2, so maybe that morning I'll take it?
I had 23 before my BFP. I used 2 wondfo and a FRER the day of my BFP, a FRER the next day and a Wondfo yesterday to see if the line got darker than the squinter wondfo that was my BFP. I am totally psyching myself out and need to step away from the POASing. I saving the last FRER for this weekend to check if the line got darker yet and otherwise I'm going to try not to use any more.
Edit: with my first I took one test and took it as it was never worried about it again. It's amazing what reading s*** on the Internet does to your brain.
my count went up by 2 this morning, because i had a nightmare that i miscarried and was super upset and freaked out when i woke up. i meant to use the CBE weeks estimator, but accidentally opened and dipped the digi first, so i decided to dip the weeks estimator as well. i was hoping for the 3+ weeks for some peace of mind, but only got 2-3 weeks. i know it's not an exact science, and while i'll be 6 weeks on friday by LMP, i ovulated on CD 17 so i'm really just past five weeks. but anyway, it was not the reassurance i was looking for after that kind of nightmare.
So far, just 2. I bought a package with 3 and have been saving the third for right before I tell family in a couple weeks. I have to fight the urge to use it sooner. Maybe I will just buy another box...
Re: Be honest, how many sticks have you peed on?
