"Hi, my name is Crystal, and I'm addicted to POAS"

[itsme122]

I can remember the addiction in my first pregnancy just like it was yesterday. And here I am at almost 4 weeks pregnant, feeling the unrelenting urge to pee on every test I have in the house..every day.

I only have one test left. I refuse to buy more. Should I do it?!

 

[spunky84]

I'm like that too. DH actually banned me from buying anymore as he said "We can't afford for you keep buying tests like last time. You're pregnant, you don't need to test anymore!"

The only time he was okay with it was when I thought I was having a m/c, and I had a long week ahead of me. I told him that taking the tests were the only things that were going to get me through till the end of the week, and, fortunately, he had sympathy.

I told my mom that there's something about being pregnant that just makes you want to pee on stuff. It's fun!

Haha it's such a sickness I tell ya!
I caved and used my last one this morning. But I took a video of the little window filling up and turning positive so I can relive that part at least. #weirdo
Surely the urge will wane after the first scan and I can start listening to the heart beat on the doppler!

 

[babifever]

Will a scan help you guys stop???

My last two babies i had a Doppler and its amazing to listen to your baby whenever you want &#9786; with Nate i got my Doppler the day i was 9weeks and could hear his heartbeat right away. With Westin i had the Doppler i started looking early and heard his heartbeat starting at 5w5d &#10084;

I love the idea of doing a video of it! I think there's nothing like the feeling of seeing a test turn positive. It's one of the things I try to keep in my mind as I think it'd just an amazing feeling.

Wish I'd thought if that, but is probably too late now since I think it'd be too high to register now.

Yes!! I held on to the Doppler I used durin DD's pregnancy with the anticipation of another baby. I can't wait to dust it off again! Such a magical feeling, to hear that baby's heartbeat. &#128525;&#128525;
