I kept them long enough to show DH and then they went in the trash. I don't get the attachment to them!
For me it was a 6.5 year road to get that BFP. It was the realization of a lot of things in that stick: that we might finally become parents, that we didn't just flush 25k down the toilet for that one IVF cycle, that the years of heartache and depression and meltdowns might have all been worth it, that maybe your body will work properly for once, that you might make your parents grandparents because you are their only child...
For some, there is a lot of attachment.
I'm sorry-i didn't mean to be offensive in my response!
I have the positive one in my bathroom vanity. I'm not generally sentimental and I'm sure I'll toss it soon, but it still makes me smile when I open that drawer. Shrug.
I still have my positive test. Honestly, I am still surprised I ever got a positive and I still feel excitement when I see it. I did delete the pics from my phone (don't worry, they are backed up in two places, lol)
No, because DS was not planned and it was not a joyful moment (that came later). I still have this one because in my weirdo pp hormones I regretTed that I didn't keep DS's. I will probably throw them out now that I've adm that, lol.
I just threw out the one from DS after DH encouraged me to when we were cleaning a couple months ago. I also have pictures of the test and us with the test and at dinner celebrating the night we found out.
