After the initial positive I had my husband go out and get a digital just in case. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1161158 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 18:49:46 +0000 Mrs. Tea 1161158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>at least 10! I kept wanting confirmation it was true :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160957 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 16:03:49 +0000 delight 1160957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I definitely kept testing for a few weeks....<br /> I had a scan at 7 weeks and after seeing the HB stopped testing. I think next pregnancy I'll be able to relax a bit more! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160830 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 13:58:54 +0000 artsyfartsy 1160830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes but only because I used my last test for my BFP!</p> <p>I didn't see the point of going out and buying anymore. But if I had had some extras I would have for sure used them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160828 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 13:57:24 +0000 Beyond2 1160828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had 50 wondfos in my cabinet that would expire before my due date... There are only 4 left. I think POAS is an addiction lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160821 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 13:53:12 +0000 SweetMamaM 1160821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only one FRER and one digi but like @PurplePeony: the line was super dark. I just peed on the digi because I thought it would be easier for my DH to wrap his brain around in the early morning before heading to work :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160799 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 13:37:22 +0000 Tidybee 1160799@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Actually yes!! My BFP was on a digital, so I took one wondfo test another week in just because it was laying around but I made a conscious effort not to keep retesting because it would drive me crazy assessing darkness of the lines, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160747 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 13:05:51 +0000 Running Elley 1160747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was (am) an extremely paranoid pregnant lady so no. With E I got my first positive at 3.5 weeks and I tested every day (alternating between wondfos and FRERs) until just after 6 weeks. This time I took 4 tests total. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160620 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 11:58:21 +0000 boots 1160620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took two initially. I tested on/off for like 2-3 weeks after. It was ridiculous. I think I took 8 total. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160603 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 11:38:21 +0000 jhd 1160603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took 2: one frer and then a digital because I just wanted to see the word pregnant pop up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160573 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 11:13:42 +0000 PurplePeony 1160573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only one. There was no room for interpretation, those lines were DARK! And after that, I kind of figured what will be, will be. Maybe if I'd had spotting or other worrying symptoms, I'd have tested again, but I never really felt the need to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160567 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 11:09:26 +0000 Maysprout 1160567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I took them every couple days until the line started to fade (I had just gotten a new batch of wondfos). Then had to go on a google spree to realize that was normal for it to start to fade as you progress in pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160536 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 10:34:52 +0000 lemondrop 1160536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only one with C. With baby #2, I took two. I was feeling strange, took a test, but it was super light and very early, so I took another a week later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160523 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 10:25:01 +0000 Rubies 1160523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One cheapie and one Clearblue digital for both pregnancies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160498 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 10:05:03 +0000 Andrea 1160498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two with my first, but only because DH made me. Only one with my second. They were digitals so I figured that they were pretty accurate. No need to take more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160481 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 09:54:30 +0000 lovehoneybee 1160481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no idea how many I actually took, but it was a crazy lot. I was so paranoid because of the recent m/c. I think I tested like 4 times a day the first week, and at least once a day after that until my first ultrasound at 8 weeks. It was bad. The only defense I have is that they were the stockpiles of cheap Wondfo tests that came with the OPKs, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160469 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 09:48:13 +0000 anonysquire 1160469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I got 2 squinters while on vacation and then a negative at home then a positive digital and then decided to take another digital and a week later when I had spotting took another digital. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160458 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 09:38:34 +0000 MrsF 1160458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I probably did 3 or 4 total between the day I found out (Valentine's day 2012!) and the next day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160423 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 09:07:34 +0000 NavyRN2012 1160423@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only used one. I had a pregnancy test with my dr.'s office not long after. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160417 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 09:02:35 +0000 Ash 1160417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only took one both times! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160407 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 08:56:51 +0000 yin 1160407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two with DS1 and one with DS2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160404 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 08:54:36 +0000 matador84 1160404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 with ds and 2 with dd. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160402 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 08:53:19 +0000 GrapeCrush 1160402@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>4 with DS and 3 with DD.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160398 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 08:46:19 +0000 Foodnerd81 1160398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had three different brands lined up on the counter the day I got my BFP! Then I kept testing (with dollar store or wondfo) every other day for about a week, then I stopped. It still didn't seem real. When morning sickness kicked in at 6 weeks it felt all too real. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160392 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 08:39:46 +0000 Bookish 1160392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha I took like a dozen. DH thought it was ridiculous. I just loved seeing the line get darker! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160376 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 08:15:51 +0000 Dandelion 1160376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. I didn't have any left. Otherwise I would have kept going lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160375 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 08:15:37 +0000 Bao 1160375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took probably 10+ more with A, and about 4 more with this one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160374 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 08:12:38 +0000 twodoghouse 1160374@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took two HPTs because that's all I had in the house. I did pee on a few OPKs afterward though just to see what would happen. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160371 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 08:09:00 +0000 lawbee11 1160371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha! No. I may or may not have tested for weeks afterwards... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/after-your-first-positive-hpt-testdid-you-stop-testing#post-1160369 Sat, 19 Oct 2013 08:07:44 +0000 Cherrybee 1160369@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I took 14 HPTs in total!! After my CP two months earlier, when it was just as if I was pregnant one day and then not pregnant the next, I needed confirmation at least every 48 hours!! </p>
