Six.
But.....
One was a that I took too early.
Four super squinters from 9-13DPO.
One FRER at 13DPO.

Once I had a positive FRER I quit testing.

Um.

I took 4 A DAY for weeks and then at least 1 a day until I got my first US. I knew I was crazy, but I was so paranoid after my miscarriage and wanted to keep reassuring myself that I was pregnant.

ETA: The bulk of them were the cheap Wondfos that I had lying around...

Technically two. I took an expired test and it was positive, but I didn't really trust it since it was expired, so then I bought a pack of FRERs and tested again to confirm.

Did the same thing both pregnancies. Expired test followed by a new test, haha.

Like @mfa_lady: with my first (that I ended up MC) I took like 8 or 9. o.O But I had a feeling something wasn't right and my FRER's were getting lighter and lighter.

With my current pregnancy I took 3. 2 FRER's and a leftover wondfo. I felt better about this pregnancy from the start.

i had a pack of cheapies. i took one that was - around 9 DPO. then i got my BFP at 12 DPO (day before missed period). then i took one or two more later that week! i believed it, but i just wanted to see the lines before my doctor's appt!

For DS I took 1 digital

For DD I didn't think I was pregnant so I used an OPK - when that was positive I took a preg test - so 2 for DD!

2. I had a 2 pack anyway and wanted to confirm a few days after my

I took two the day I first got the . After that, I still took one every morning for a good two weeks just to make sure I was still pregnant. DH thought I was bats--t crazy.

Only one. But my period was 4 days late. It turned up unmistakably positive so that was enough proof for me.

@mfa_lady: it really does! I was still nervous (how could you not be?!) but I had this sense of peace over it. Like, it's out of my hands! I really did just have a feeling that it was going to work out. I have a feeling yours will work out too

Like @mfa_lady, I took a bunch the first time because it happened so fast and I had a bad feeling. It just seemed too easy, and I was just waiting for the other shoe to drop. Which it did, m/c. The second one was such an early m/c that I didn't take as many, but still several (4 or 5 maybe?). This last time I just really felt good about everything, I just KNEW I was pregnant at 2dpo. I wound up testing early, so I "had" to keep testing just to get a dark enough line to prove to DH that I wasn't just seeing what I wanted to see! And then I was so sure that it was going to stick that I wound up continuing to periodically test just to use up my cheapies, since I didn't think I'd need them again any time soon, cause it was fun. So I actually tested about 20 times this time, but the majority of those were for fun. I also still occasionally pee on an opk just to relive the fun of seeing that line show up, since I have a bunch left, but not really enough to bother trying to put on the classifieds, and they'll probably expire before we start ttc again.

I also peed on an frer WAY after I was sure (as in after my first u/s at 10 weeks), just because I never got to have the "pretty" bfp that everyone on here has. Such a waste of money, but it made me happy.

Too many. At least 8? I started taking them at 9dpo but wasn't sure if it was a real positive or left over from my trigger shot. I took one every day until my beta. Then I may have taken one or two after my betas but before my first ultrasound.

I took 4 and 1 was defective! I started w/ 2 Target ones (where one was defective), then moved onto the FRERs once I got a positive on the cheapies.

I took maybe 25? Maybe more? The expensive FRER ones too. I kept buying them after I ran out of my home stock. I couldn't resist. It made me so happy to see the two lines!

@Mae: I took 5 I think! Then started worrying about the lines until someone on my due date board told me to stop, lol.

One the day after AF was due and it was pretty positive. I took a second 4 days later before telling DH (I had been visiting my parents).

Uhm, I voted 6+. But way more "plus" than six:-). I'd just bought a new pack of wondfos, and my lack of symptoms had me CONVINCED something was wrong until my first appointment at 7.5 weeks. So yeah....I peed on ALL the sticks. I'm hoping for my second pregnancy to be more relaxed about the process, but I also am realistic about my POAS-aholic status.

Ummm.... like 8? But I had Wondfos to burn
