I used multiple tests for both pregnancies. I had to confirm and reconfirm....rinse and repeat.
I have some Wondfo tests left so I will probably do the same thing if/when there is a next time!

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!!

Ha! No. I may or may not have tested for weeks afterwards...

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.

I took probably 10+ more with A, and about 4 more with this one.
watermelon / 14206 posts
Yes. I didn't have any left. Otherwise I would have kept going lol
GOLD / cantaloupe / 6581 posts
Haha I took like a dozen. DH thought it was ridiculous. I just loved seeing the line get darker!

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.

I only used one. I had a pregnancy test with my dr.'s office not long after.

I probably did 3 or 4 total between the day I found out (Valentine's day 2012!) and the next day.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I took 2: one frer and then a digital because I just wanted to see the word pregnant pop up!

I took two initially. I tested on/off for like 2-3 weeks after. It was ridiculous. I think I took 8 total.

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.

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.

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

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.
cantaloupe / 6692 posts
Yes but only because I used my last test for my BFP!
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!

I definitely kept testing for a few weeks....
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!

I took two. After the initial positive I had my husband go out and get a digital just in case.
