Anyone else still testing...?

I got my BFP on Tuesday, and for some reason I keep testing over and over again...it's almost like I don't believe that it's true...

Anyone else?

Re: Anyone else still testing...?

  • Yeah, I will admit to testing today and regret it! I took a FRER and the test line was so dark that the control line was super faint, which panicked me for a minute. Apparently it's not a big deal and means my HCG is high, but I learned my lesson--no more peeing on sticks!

  • Once your symptoms kick in you won't want to test anymore because you will KNOW that you are pregnant! ;)
  • Ha ha ha, okay...I'm glad that I'm not alone! It's only been 4 days, so I guess it's not so bad. I will quit eventually, I'm sure ;-)
  • I tested for 3 days in a row, a few times each day until I got my blood work test done and it came back positive.  For now, I guess I'll just accept the combination of a positive blood test, excruciatingly sore boobs, and needing to pee every hour - although if I sill had a test under the sink I'd probably use it for good measure :)

  • My doctor's office won't be getting me in for blood work until May 2nd, so I'm kind of obsessed with it. Want to confirm everything is going smoothly
  • I only took one test. I was afraid to take any more because for some reason I thought it would end up negative. Now have many other natural "positives" so I don't feel quite so scared...

    Exactly. Puking and fire tits are the only positive test that I need.

  • I took 2 the day of my BFP and then 1 a couple days later.  As silly as it is I'm going to take another one on Thursday morning because we are telling my son and MIL.  I have a few tests to spare so I figured why not!

  • Raises hand. I had the weeks predictor tests and finally got my 3+ weeks today. I have a couple wondfos left and I'm sure they will be used as well before my next appt on the 25th, PGaL has me peeing on all the sticks!

  • I got my BFP on Wednesday and I tested this morning. I have a bag full of Wondfos and there's no guarantee I'll be stopping anytime soon. It's hard for it to sink in because of my early loss before so I think I need the reassurance!
  • I am a serial tester! After all the MC I have had in the past, I still can't believe I'm pregnant. I will keep testing until my second draw which is on Sunday.
  • Yup! I'm 6w on Sunday with my first, so I'm still unsure of pregnancy symptoms and how I should really feel. I finally bought a digital test today and somehow I felt much more confident seeing the word 'Pregnant' rather than two lines. My DH thinks I'm crazy :)
  • I took 8 all but one were positive! Still in denial!!
  • I tested for about a week and had 1 digi left over that I took this week to calm my nerves in between beta testing. I think I took like 10 tests not to mention all the cheapies I have laying around the house that I took.

    I could have written this word for word. Only my appointment isn't until May 2nd. I haven't peed on one in a few days, but I do have 2 or 3 wondfos left. I'll probably use them between now and my appt.

  • I only stopped testing BC I ran out. I am trying to exercise some extreme restraint by not buying more.
  • 7 weeks Monday and I did the other day :)

  • I tested a ton in the beginning, but have since stopped. Last week my betas were at 27,000, so i think it was a prudent decision. Those pee sticks are too damn addictive.
  • Totally normal. I am pregnant with my 3rd and with each pregnancy I have taken several tests!! If it makes you feel better , keep testing ! It's the little things ;-)

  • I'm 8w 4d and still not having any symptoms other than tired and bloated... Soooo I may have taken 7 tests, the last of which was on Friday.

  • I continued testing for a while after I got my BFP. I was using the CB weeks estimator and wanted to see the 3+.  I never saw the 3+ and one day just had an epic meltdown over it.  A couple days later I went to the OB and had a sonogram.  There was a heartbeat and a little gummy looking baby.  For the future, I will never continue to test after a BFP.

    I cannot tell a lie...tested for the first time after my 3 BFP betas just this morning. I'm 6 weeks. Last Beta was over a week ago and although my girls hurt, I am g-a-s-s-y and get tired pretty easy, I really feel pretty good! So yes, broke down today as I'm awaiting our first US on APR 30 and was a little concerned. Still Prego and my DH teasing me made me laugh at my paranoid self. Not going to do it again! ;)

    @kayhold‌ you crack me up!!! ;;)

    I did the same thing. Fucking clearblue. My first beta was 9, and the CB was negative. 2 days later it said 1-2, and then after I hit 4 weeks it kept saying 1-2. I was so sure I was doomed.
