For your last bfp, how many tests did you pee on?
I was testing out a trigger and had had back to back losses right before that so I was a bit POAS obsessed. I think I peed on about 15. Good thing for dollar store cheapies.

For this pregnancy, maybe 7? I didn't get my bfp until quite late (cd30, and my cycles were average of 27 days) so I'd taken at least 2 before, and then I had a bunch of wondfos around and took about 4 over the next 10ish days after to watch my line get darker. I had a chemical last winter where I took at least 10 tests, and watched the line get slightly darker than lighter, so I was really reallly anxious about seeing a nice dark line even though my bfp was on a digital!

I took four. I bought two dollar store tests during lunch and went home and took them. I was shocked when the first one was blazing positive so I took the second and same result. That was a long second half of the day at work, haha. So hard not to just blurt it out! One of my work friends had just returned from maternity leave, too, so I was tempted. On my way home I picked up a digital, which also came with a regular blue dye test. I took both of those and the digital said 3+ weeks

With my first I took three.
With my second I took six.
With my third just the one.

I took a bunch with my first because I was so excited to see it and in disbelief.
With my second I used two expired tests from when we ttc the first, then when it was positive I wasn't sure if I could believe an expired test, so I bought a digital that day. Immediate "pregnant" so I stopped after that.

Either 9 or 10. Three were simultaneous (wondfo, FRER, clearblue digital).

A bunch. I took a wondfo one every day from when I got bfp at 10 dpo until I had spotting at nearly 7 weeks. I went in for an u/s then, saw the heartbeat, and no longer felt the need to test.

Two, but only because I screwed the first one up - it was one of the digital ones and I didn't wait until it booted up or whatever.

So many. I was obsessed. I took at least one a day for the first couple weeks just to make sure they were getting darker.

Maybe four? I used up all the sticks I had. The doctor makes you wait you soooo long before confirming the pregnancy.

A lot. Maybe 11 or 12? Lol. The first five or so were wasted the first or two. I had a feeling even tho I had no symptoms, and then kept getting evaps so of course I was hopeful and just kept testing. I tested like 9 wondfos, 1 frer. The final one was a digital that stated pregnant.

I took 4 with my last pregnancy (which ended in miscarriage). I've had 3 losses and one successful pregnancy now, so I have to drawn the line on how many tests I take or I get obsessive and stress myself out.

2
The first at 9/10 DPO it was
The second at 13 DPO and it was a
Thinking back to it though it was a clear positive but not blazing considering I am carrying twins.

First I took a few internet cheapies. Second I took two, the second one was because this first test I took was more then a year expired and I wanted to be sure. I knew already just from his I was feeling.

I think 1?! I forget if I ended up taking the other one in the box later on to "make sure" or not...

I'm assuming you mean after getting the first
DD I did a total of 3, the first and then a two pack the next morning to convince DH
This time, two, then blood work, then 3-5 more bc I didn't believe it would stick

None - I found out when I went to the doctor for something else and they had to do blood work!

I think 4 or maybe 5. This pregnancy was a surprise and I tested on a whim with a wondfo and got a positive. I honestly wasn't sure whether to believe it so I got some FRERs the next day and took tests for the next couple days. I don't think I really quite wrapped my head around it until I had like 3 days of bfps.

I only had one with the text around and it said 2-3 weeks- nothing to squint at.

Just once each time... I waited a few days longer to test both times so they're wouldn't be any maybe's.

3 with my first
So many more with my second. Like 7? My line looked like it might be getting lighter for a couple of tests. Then suddenly got way darker!

2 because the first test was negative. I waited a few days between each test.
