Anybody else continue to POAS early in your pregnancy? I got my BFP a week and a half ago, and I've probably taken 4 more tests since then.
I'm not sure if I'm extra nervous, or just like to see the positive. I feel sort of silly doing it, but, I guess there are worse things?

I did this too! I loved seeing the second line show up, made it so much more real!

I took as many as I still had in the bathroom before I ran out. I didn't want to do too many though and risk seeing a line that wasn't as dark as a previous one and freaking myself out....

Oh gosh I took tests from the first BFP (which was really early…3w2d) until just past 6 weeks when we heard the heartbeat! Just a warning, I wouldn’t take them past 5-5.5 weeks because at around 6 weeks your body metabolizes the pregnancy hormone differently and test lines will come up lighter. That caused me to freak out completely needlessly

I took like 4 a day for the first week, 2 a day for the next week, and one a day for the week after that....pretty much until my first ultrasound at 8 weeks.
But only a few of them the first day or two were the nicer ones (FRERs and a digital), the rest were just my stash of Wondfos, so I don't feel guilty at all.

i took 3 tests in 1 day because i was in shock because we weren't planning at that time.

guilty as charged! i got my BFP about a week and a half ago and i tested several times since, even last night! it makes me so relieved and happy to see the 2nd line show up RIGHT AWAY and even way darker than the control line.
it sure beats all those other BFNs i've gotten in the past where I hold it to line and squint my eyes trying to imagine a faint line, which was never really there!

I took them until I ran out...and then kept them in the bathroom to gaze at lovingly for a few days.
