My husband and I started trying last month for the first time. I decided to buy several of the dollar tree kind just because I'm impatient and anxious. They were negative for a few days but I got home from a 12 hour shift Saturday and said I would try "one more time"! And I was SHOCKED..I was so tired but I had to get up and run the Walgreens for a digital one to know for sure...sure enough. I took 5 total because I just couldn't convince myself it was real! I am around 4w 3d!
