HPT's do you have right now?
HPT's do you buy when going to the store?
Just curious to see how crazy I am. I think my obsession has gotten the best of me. Right now I have a good 25 HPT tests in my house. About 20 of them being IC and the others FRER's. I also just ordered 5 more tests from a website that says it has the lowest sensitivity out there, I need to see if I believe them. I keep taking the IC's since they are so cheap even though I don't trust their results, but refuse to use the FRER's since they are so expensive. Today I'm 10DPO and have gotten BFN's since 8DPO, like I said, I'm a nut. Today though, I think I see a really really faint line, like hold it on a weird angel and maybe there is something there, so naturally now I'm going to be even more obsessed with POAS. I don't have any symptoms but even with my last pregnancy I didn't experience any till I was about 7 or 8 weeks.

ummm I have ummm....
around.....40
But in my defense they are internet cheapies and I don't think they are any where near as sensitive as they claim.
I do plan on picking up some more FRER and a Digi to confirm when I get closer to real testable days.

None - I keep forgetting to order them. I found some that are super cheap on amazon. Oh wait, that's not true, I actually still have 4 positive tests that I have saved in Ethan's memory box.

None. If I keep them in the house I use them when I shouldn't. I usually only buy 1 at a time but tomorrow I'm going to buy a pack of 2 because I'm going to need another one after friday.

I think I have 2 FRERs, 2 Safeway brand, 1 digi, and approx 15 IC's (they always come free when I order Pre-seed).
I think that they are going to expire soon!

That doesn't make me feel so bad. I"m actually trying to wind down to NONE also. If their not here, then I can't pee on them. I just need to stop ordering them also. Me and my obsessions.

I hope it's a BFP. KUP. And I have 0 right now. I need to get some but I want to wait closer to 10 dpo. Otherwise I'll be peeing on them. And I usually only buy a couple boxes at a time.

Where do you order them from? I've never ordered opk's or hpt's....any recommendations? And the preseed, are there any success stories on here with that? I am sick of doing this the old fashioned way!

this last time I rodered some off of Ebay. The others are from webwomb. Thye work for my obsession of seeing it go negative as the trigger goes away, but I don't thinkI trust them for a BFP, I'll get FRER, but for somer eason, those don't work as well for me, I end up with CBE.

I can proudly say I now I have none!  I used the last of them a couple of days ago!  Don't think I haven't thought about going to get more though, just to watch it get darker! And Sam, I'm with you about eh IC. I hadn't used them until this cycle, but considering I got bfps at 10-11dpo with the $store test for my last two pgs, and this time had to finally use a FRER at 13dpo, I don't trust them either. I think their OPKs are great though! Okay, this is how hardcore I am....The other day I used a OPK as an HPT. And it worked! Better than their HPTs! Go figure.

LOL Stephanie...I hope it's a BFP!!!! You have to test with a FRER.
I have 5 right now. 3 test strips left from eBay and 2 FRER. I don't know how sensitive the eBay ones are, but I also got BFN on day 7 & 8 dpo.. I'm testing again tomorrow. I don't want to waste the FRER, but I think I will on day 10. Good luck to you!!!!!! keeping my fingers crossed that this is it!
