Its not that I'm hoping to have a problem its jus a couple times I've thought mu water was leaking so instead of going into l&d every little while I thought I would jus check myself and today o checked and it was high so I got a little worried

Yea i agree i dont think you should invest too much into these strips, actually you shouldnt invest anything into them. I wouldnt even use them anymore. Just next time you go to the doctor and you give your urine sample they will let you know if anything is off with any of your levels and like the person said above me when you do start to leak enough to be concerned you will def know and those strips will be irrelevant lol
Just dont stress or worry too much about it, i dont think theres anything going on sweetie

Obviously you're hoping to have a problem. And its stressing you out. A lot of FTMS exaggerate about things that they have created in their minds.

Try not to worry Sweetie or search for problems that don't exist.

They dont sound very accurate to me. If your water broke you would most likely know anyway.

Probably should call ur doctor and see if those strips are accurate since u got them from the fish tank section they might not be accurate with human urine I wouldn't stress till u talk to a doctor
