I thought about POAS today but decided I would wait until tomorrow since it's Friday. Not sure why it being Friday matters but it made me feel justified
YEEEESSSSSSS !!!!! Everyday so far!!!! I'm obsessed!!!! I thought I was only one. I got the very very faint squinters at 10 DPO, a full week before I missed my period so I couldn't believe. I've been testing every day. At first just to confirm. Now just because I relish seeing those two lines, and watching it get darker and darker hahaha.
Well what else are you going to do with those wandfos that you haven't used yet????
I am 100% guilty, I have 5 wandfos left and plan to use them for the next 5-10 days depending on whether I have enough self control to use them every OTHER day or not. I also have 1 more FRER left that I'm using tomorrow (official 4 weeks) before I call the doctor to set up my first appointment because I'm paranoid like that. DH has banned me from purchasing any more pg tests so once they're gone that will hopefully be the end of things. They wandfos have been getting darker for the past 2 days and coming up sooner so I am hoping this is a sticky little embryo/blastocyst/whatever the hell it's called at this stage of development.
@Sgoldberg247 My thought exactly - they're just there now. Might as well not let the money go to waste. DH is not here right now - in a business trip to Germany, he actually doesn't know KU yet! So I have no one to control my obsession haha. I have actually gone out and bought the "real" and expensive tests. Even though wondfos are now nice and dark and come up fast I still went out and bought more.
And I like what @JaymeeLH said about getting a digital just to see the word! Nice!
I just got my first positive on a wondfo last night. It was a faint line so DH wasn't convinced...for me the MS and 2 lines was convincing! I ran to the store today and got a digital. Peed on a wondfo first to make sure it was positive then did the digital and got a nice "Pregnant" reading! Took it downstairs to show DH and said "does this convince you now" and he just smiled! I have a feeling I'll keep peeing on all the sticks lol
I just bought 5 more PT today!!! I'm insane!! Whenever I'm by the dollar store I always pick up 5. I'm 7 weeks pregnant, and obsessed lol I'm glad I'm not the only one doing this!
@sorarosethanks for not making me feel crazy.
Every morning until my wondfos are gone. Testing Saturday with a weeks estimator to see if it goes from 1-2 weeks last Saturday to 2-3 weeks this one.
God help this baby with a crazy mama!!!
Oh, I'm BSC. You're just in good company!
And if you want to get really adventurous, POAS in the afternoon/night. When that gets dark without FMU, it's super exciting.

^^ this! I love seeing how it differs throughout times of the day. But alas, I only have 5 left so I decided to ration the days now. No more multiple times a day for fun.
@little_bren that's a good idea. I have no clue how I'm going to do it, mostly because I can't control the environment or know what to expect from each day. We have a general itinerary but nothing super concrete. I thought maybe a nice sweet moment in a picturesque German town, or a pretty landscape. We're visiting some castles and other fairy-tale looking places. I might improvise and make a sweet moment out of the place. But I think I will have to take a test - better it be digital - with him there so he can see it's for real. haha
I have never seen a positive pregnancy test. I got so tired of seeing BFNs I just stopped taking them. This LO was confirmed via 2 beta tests (213 then 951). But I've told DH I need to buy a test and go POAS to believe it. I feel like it's a right of passage.
I'm just irrationally nervous that it will be negative, ya know, because it always has been! I think we will do one this weekend since our ultra sound isn't till Thursday and the time between beta and us is making me want confirmation again!
Yes, to pretty much all of the above posts. I've also been peeing on my leftover OPKs because those also turn positive if you're pregnant.

@BVBabyHopeful i would ask him to take a picture with you and do the "ok on three say I'm pregnant!" And snap the picture. You'll get his reaction that way, and possibly a really cool castle in the background!
And I look at my drawer full of positive tests all the time. Yes, I have a drawer full of things I peed on...
Oh you brave brave soul! I kept that little secret to myself in full shame , hahaha. I'm with ya! I keep them and I stare at them and rejoice and I like to line them up to see how the line gets darker. Hahaha. That's right, I have a collection of pee sticks...sick right? :>
Full disclosure: YEP! Gross? Perhaps. Reassuring? You betcha. No worries, ladies, I promise I am going to throw them away as soon as I have a sonogram pic or confirmation from the doctor. I'm not making Christmas ornaments with them or anything.

I've got 3 line tests and a digital lined up on my nightstand right now for the same reason! Glad to know I'm not totally crazy the only one.
Guess what? Still POAS!!!! Today I really did a happy dance because that line showed fast and really dark! I've got three left and have yet to go buy a digital - although that one will be for DH hahaha.
I totally did that for the first week and a half after I got my first BFP. I'd check every few days and reassure myself when the line showed up almost immediately after dipping. I made myself stop because I'm at the point where the hook effect will probably come into play.
The lady at the dollar tree said "I'm pretty sure one will do it."
No.. No it won't.

I keep telling myself I wont buy more. Ran out of wondfos so I found myself at target buying some tests again because I'm a crazy person. Third time I've been there in the past 2 or so weeks. I've started having to scope out cashiers because no matter how much I tell myself they won't remember me, I can't shake the thought and don't want them to think I'm totally crazy buying pregnancy tests so often....
I did a second one because my DS found the first one and trying to explain with words to my 7 year old how they work was just not getting it through. So I did a second one so he could watch the lines pop up. He got so excited! I think he was more excited for the "science project" mom peed on than the idea of being a brother. lol
