As you can see I'm early stages and I'm constantly test!!!! The test line is dark the control line on the test,,...,,...my doct has done bloods 115 the 4 days later 997 so all is good!!!!! I just keep thinking someone is going to take it away from me!!!
Wen will this feeling stop! As it's driving me crazy!
 
We ttc'ed 2 years for our daughter and I kept testing every day till I was about 7 weeks. It really freaked me out because even then some tests were not as dark as others!
This time I tested every day until about 5 weeks then probably twice a week. This is likely my last pregnancy so it's lovely to see the two lines come up :cloud9:
 
With my first pregnancy, I used maybe 30 tests. I was bleeding though. I just had to make sure the other line was there. It was for my own peace of mind. It was an expensive habit, but it made me feel better.
 
I tested sooo many times for weeks after I found out I was pregnant!
 
I would honestly stop testing soon if I were you. There is a phenomenon called the Hook Effect, and essentially once the HCG levels in your urine reach a certain point, home tests won't be able to handle it and the lines will actually start getting faint, causing a lot of unnecessary worry and panic.

I know it's really nice to keep testing and know it's there for reassurance, but a faint or even negative test will scare you much more.
 
Because we want to make sure they are growing 😊😊😊
 
I have tested around 10 times in one week since my first BFP 2 weeks ago so I can relate. I haven't tested again for a week and I have no more tests left so I think I'm done.

Last time I only tested twice. First on a drug store brand and then on a digital to confirm. I'm not sure why I'm less convinced this tine round!!

My advice is to put away any remaining tests as I've been more relaxed since I stopped testing.
 
Uv decided that the last test I take will be in Sunday because it's a digi and I want to see 3+ then I'm done lol
