Extra tests?

Bubblegum5586 · December 2015

So I had ordered Wondfos that showed up after I got my first BFP. I took my second test on a digital so I could see the words "pregnant". Now I have like 20 Wondfos and an extra digital. I have tested a few extra times on the Wondfos... because why not lol. Do you ladies keep testing for reassurance? Not sure what to do with these extras? I am so early still with my first appt still 3 weeks away! We are telling both our families on Christmas morning... thinking I'll take the digital before that? I don't want to waste them... but if I don't use them at all I think they would expire before I would need them again!

I'm giving all my leftover opks and hpts to my sister since she's TTGP.

Honestly, I hate to be a downer, but keep them in case you have a loss and want to try again. (Speaking from experience)

If you know someone TTC you could pass them along. Wondfos are cheap enough that if worst case happens and you do have a loss you can just buy more.

I've been taking a cheapie from Dollar General almost daily to see the lines get darker.

What @andrea0418 said. I have a couple extra too, and assuming this baby sticks, I don't think I'll need them anymore. Give them to a family member or close friend who is TTC.

I had one box of 8 I had ordered before we got our BFP. 8 weeks until my first appointment - You bet I've been POAS ever since "to make sure" #crazyperson

I had like 3-4 Wondfos leftover and I gave them to a coworker who's going to start TTC next month. Still have a FRER that I want to use but DH says no. I know he asked if they're good past their expiration dates and I looked it up but don't remember if I told him that the answer is no...

I thought I was the only one who really wants to keep testing! I know I am pregnant (took 4 tests the moment I found out, all very dark positive) but it's almost so hard to believe I just want to keep taking tests!! I only have one left so I'm saving it just in case.

I can't speak for the wondfos, but I am a nervous wreck waiting to hear the heartbeat at the first appointment and have tested with the clear blue with the weeks predictor to make sure my HCG is increasing for peace of mind. In at 3+ now, so now I have to wait until the appointment.

I have not kept testing. I took two tests (two different brands) the day of my BFP and that was enough confirmation for me. I kind of have the opposite of your typical PGAL brain: to keep testing would cause me more anxiety. I decided to just accept that I'm pregnant and be happy/move forward.

I don't know anyone TTC. I have about five Wondfos. I will keep them for a few more months in case something happens. Otherwise, I'll toss them. What can ya do?

I "allow" myself one test a week until my ultrasound at 8 weeks. Just what has always worked for me!

I took my first test and then tested again the next morning. Both were digital. We are telling my parents Christmas Eve but I have been planning to test again the night before to make sure? I know that probably sounds crazy but I just need that reassurance before I tell the family!

I have been using all of my extra Wondfos to make sure the line was getting darker and because I'm scared I'll have a miscarriage again. But I stopped a few days ago when I reached the fifth week. I figured I should save my last two just in case I do have a miscarriage. That way after the bleeding stops I can check to make sure there's no more hcg in my system. That's what I did last time anyway.
