I completely forgot about the ones I took but yep they're still in the box in the bathroom cabinet. Although I probably will throw them out eventually.

Ahaha I have mine! I thought I was weird for keeping it...I thought it faded too (as the instructions said to look at it within a few hours or it starts to fade) but it's been almost 9 months haha and it still hasn't faded in the slightest. I used first responce. Lol.

I kept mine to show my boyfriend and it later got thrown out when my room was cleaned but the box did say the results would fade but mine only got darker and stayed that way.

The lady that confirmed my pregnancy at the health department gave the test back to me and said that I could put it in my baby's book if I wanted. I had never even thought to do such a thing. I was just going to throw it away.

Yea..I still have all of mine!! Lol...Kinda gross..But I guess that's why they give you the caps!

It did fade a little...But one brand did more than the other...I took them in august..So i'm sure they'll fade a little more!! I want to keep everthing for my baby girl!!

Ps...They determined it was a girl and not a boy like they originally said!! I knew from the get go that it was going to be a girl..I didn't think I got sick enough to have conceived a boy.

Kayoni joilee is going to join us on may 4 (or somewhere around there)
my birthday is may 1..So hopefully I can get her as a b day present!!

I wrapped mine up and gave to my hubby for fathers day, or birthday... If anything was coming up soon.

Iv'e kept all of mine. My first pregnancy test (in 1991 - makes me sound old!) has faded a little but you can still see the positive line clearly

Looks like i'm the weirdo here. I held onto for a few month (mainly because I couldn't believe it and had to keep checking) then I threw it away. I feel like a jerk now! :cry:
