Does anyone keep their Used HPT's?

I kept my False Negative...and my 2 Positive ones. I just keep them in the Closet and I have no idea why. I'm testing tomorrow morning to find out if I'm Pregnant or not and I just looked at them for 5 minutes straight...it was so weird.

Sorry just wanted to share and see if anyone else does it!

I have one from my last two kids and this baby......I will pass them onto them when they get older. When my oldest was conceived I didnt think much about it and didn't save it. I was only 18....I treasure everything more now as an adult

I didn't take a Photo of them last time I was Pregnant because I still have the tests. But if I do throw them away I'll take a Photo first.

I tried to keep my last positive but I got one of the digital ones that read out the word Pregnant and it disappeared on me after about 3 weeks. It may sound weird but I was very upset about it.

Yea my Husband wants me to still keep them even if I get a Positive tomorrow. He wants to remember the baby...so its a beautiful thought so I may just keep them all.

Glad to know I'm not the only one that keeps em!

I was going to keep my positive tests but they were digital and it no longer says pregnant in the window so theres no point lol. But i like the idea! Its not weird. I know a lot of women put them in scrap books! lol. I will be doing that when I have a baby. Have a scrap book with all the u/s pics and the tests!

Thanks aeslehc!!!! I am soooo fricken nervous!
There's so much **** running through my mind...like what if I Ovulated way later than I thought...or what if AF is just really late because of my Cycles being screwed up or what if I am Pregnant and my HCG's are just not high enough to show up?? I'm really praying for a positive! I'm just so afraid because last time I was Pregnant I got a False Positive and than I didn't get my Positive until I was 6 weeks!

mamaofone-I saved mine from my m/c and it's still + from October! Weird, I thought that was supposed to fade away?
