Hellobee Boards

I'm into cycle 5 of TTC and I've used about 12 so far... They were the cheap ones though.

I've been trying to be better now. I've been itching to take a test this week (I'm 10 dpo today) but I'm trying to hold out until the weekend.

OMG I can tell you exactly. I just finished a bag of 25 tests (since we TTC for the first time in 2012) and was probably 5 deep into a new bag when I got my (3) BFPs last month. I'd say beyond those cheapies, another 5 at various other times in life? Haha that's a lot!

So many... too many to count. I never had a cycle unless it was induced or on birth control. When I was younger I was super paranoid, even though I always used condoms with my partner. But then when DH and I moved in together we stopped using any form of birth control... lets just say I spent way too much money on tests. I didn't know about the cheapies back then!

Lots and lots. There was a period of time where I would go months without having a period for no reason other than my body just wasn't ovulating, so I took a ton of tests thinking I may be pregnant. Then I read TCOYF and I stopped testing until I wanted to get pregnant. Then started testing at 7 DPO every month.

Easily 100. Ttc for 3 kids - one took 8 months, and I've had 4 miscarriages.

Five tests on two separate occasions. The first time, I was pretty sure it was going to be negative because I was on BCP, but I had skipped my period so wanted to make sure. The second time I got a positive, so then of course I took three more tests just to be sure

@mediagirl: 2. One negative, one positive!

Oh gosh. A lot!!! I TTC for over a year with my first. I start testing at 9dpo (and that's when I've gotten my BFPs) and continue testing for a week. I have a problem

@twodoghouse: Ha! I am clearly gullible! I'm sitting here thinking "Does she ever pee WITHOUT taking a pregnancy test?"

Too many. I like to see the tests darken.

A lot! I don't even want to know how many.

ETA: of those bizillion, @twodoghouse: the important question is: how many since A and B were born???

@BananaPancakes: Yes! Very very lucky

A lot!! A few when I was younger and a couple of times right after we were married thinking I might be pregnant (wasn't). One when I found out I was pregnant with T because luckily he was conceived in one cycle.

And TTC #2...ugh. Too many. I didn't know about early testing when TTC my first. Now I wish I didn't. We're 3 cycles in (4 if you count our one month TTC last year and then took a break) and Ive taken so many.

I think somewhere around 10.

I took:
1 when I was 23 (negative)
1 when I came off BCP to TTC and I had weird symptoms
4 BFP #1 (CP)
2 the cycle after my CP
14 (!!!!) BFP #2
2 in 2014 to rule pregnancy out
2 in 2015 just to rule pregnancy out
4 BFP #3

So.... 30!

maybe 7? once when not TTC and it was negative. 3-4 with DD1, one negative and a couple more positives. then 3 with DD1, one negative, one positive and another digital with the weeks to try to guesstimate how far along i was because we were not TTC and i had no idea!

oh, i also remember getting a dollar store test when i was BFing with DD1 and hadn't gotten my period. so 8ish!

<10, possibly a few more if you count at the doctor's office. They just gave me one two days ago because I was getting a Mirena inserted. I was 11 weeks post-partum so thank God it was negative.

I've taken 4. One when my new BC was giving me really strange symptoms. One the cycle before I got pregnant. And two the cycle I got pregnant!

Omg, easily well over 100. I am a pee-on-a-stick-aholic and since both my sons have taken about 18 months and multiple interventions to conceive, I pretty much should have just bought stock in wondfo!

Maybe 10?
