Someone please tell me to stop taking PG tests!!!
I take them every morning just waiting for the line to get lighter.  I am such a worry wart. Is anyone else still taking PG tests that just recently got a BFP? I got mine about a week ago. 
I'm just scared that something's going to go wrong, you know?

Re: Someone please tell me to stop taking PG tests!!!
I totally understand. I took one every day and would compare it to the day before. I was pretty worried until I saw the heartbeat. I am still a little crazy at 12 weeks, but it seems to be slowly getting better. Hang in there!!

Re: Someone please tell me to stop taking PG tests!!!
I took about three after my BFP. Be careful if you're taking the non-digital pregnancy tests. For me, the control line got lighter and lighter. It totally freaked me out at first because I didn't know which line was which. I googled it and learned that, because of the additional hormones, the pregnancy line gets darker and pulls ink away from the control line. I felt better after reading that, but it was still a bit scary. Do yourself a favor and relax

Re: Someone please tell me to stop taking PG tests!!!
Glad to know I'm not the only one. LOL!
I've been taking the decent PG tests with FMU everyday and then I started 4 days ago w/taking the Dollar Store PG tests after work and yesterday the line was hardly lighter than the day before, but I'm pretty sure the line wasn't exactly as dark. They've been getting darker everyday. But then again, they are dollar store tests. LOL! All the lines I've been gettin are VERY dark. I don't think they can even get any darker.  I'm just so paranoid. The 1st Trimester was the worst for me with all my PG's. I think I just need to step away from the tests. LOL!

Re: Someone please tell me to stop taking PG tests!!!
I took a pregnancy test two weeks after my doctor confirmed it to "be sure" before I told my parents. So I understand the compulsion!
But don't worry, relax, and just enjoy it!!

Re: Someone please tell me to stop taking PG tests!!!
I took almost 20 tests in the first two weeks, 15 of them in the first day. I had fertility treatments and I just couldn't believe they worked and than I was worried it would just disappear. Once I heard the hb I was much more relaxed.

Re: Someone please tell me to stop taking PG tests!!!
I stopped taking them a few days ago,but that's because I ran out of tests and if DH knew I went to the store and bought more after I already got a clear BFP, he would think I was nuts. If I still had tests I would totally be taking them.

Re: Someone please tell me to stop taking PG tests!!!
I got my positive with a digital test. The next day I took a line test and it was negative. After that I did not even bother taking any more tests. I got my beta results the next day - so the line test was totally off!
Stop taking tests! Everything will be ok!

Re: Someone please tell me to stop taking PG tests!!!
You can't worry that something's going to go wrong; just know that it will all be okay. That's what I've been thinking since I found out... problems with my pregnancy or baby don't even cross my mind. Stay positive and all will be okay!

Re: Someone please tell me to stop taking PG tests!!!
I took a few after a BFP and then stopped thinking that it was silly to keep it going. I went to the doctor shortly after and that helped BIG time!
