Is Tori Spelling creating an unusual necklace?

I took a picture for the baby book and then trashed them. Mine never stayed positive they'd always fade.

Yes, we kept ours...in the bathroom drawer for a long time, then my husband put it away for safe keeping.

I usually threw them at my husband while screaming "you better get a second job, super sperm!!!!!" After that, he probably just threw them away.

I kept them.

Rachel, I'm beginning to think you and I were separated at birth. I kept mine ( 4 with the first and 3 with the second) in the bathroom cabinet for quite a while, too. I didn't think I was going to be able to have a baby without medical intervention, and both pregancies were sudden and surprises. ( one was 6 weeks after our wedding, next was 15 mos after birth of first) It took a long time for the pregnancies to sink in.

I kept mine through my entire pregnancy. I had really bad morning (uh - monring, noon & night!) sickness, so I kept it by the toilet to help me get through. I needed to remind myself that I was getting sick all the time for a good cause!

I had just the one stick with each pregnancy and I kept both of them. I have a box for each boy with mementos like that in it. So far, they haven't faded (the oldest one is over 5 years old now).

I kept my youngest's in a plastic baggie, in his baby book. I still have the one from my miscarriage in 2004, around somewhere. So yes, I've kept mine.

I thought I would be generous and help Tori's boyfiend out, so I "designed" a necklace for him. LOL

Catherine, that actually makes it look less. . . . icky. I mean, yes I held on to all my pee sticks, but I wouldn't actually want to wear them. Yes, they were this wonderful symbol of these 2 life-changing beings, but I urinated on them.

He should by her a locket or something where she can keep a lock of the baby's hair or the first ultrasound, or something. Before long they won't need to carry around proof of their fertility, her stomach, and then baby, will be proof enough.

The pregnancy test kit I bought when I was pregnant with my first son had a little card in it and the test strip was pretty easily removed so it could be placed in the card. I still carry the card with me almost 7 years later.

I kept my first pregnancy for a bit but then got rid of it. My second pregnancy; I have it in the bathroom linen closet (almost 6 years later) and my 3rd child has his in his scrapbook. It is sealed up though and then placed on the page :)

i, too, have my pregnancy tests from my daughter (4 eyars old) but unfortunately just have a picture from my pregancy with my son (19 years ago) the tests were MUCH more different back then...and impossible to keep....nobody would lke to have a test tube full of urine hanging around years later!! :)

Apparently I'm the minority, I threw mine away after my husband saw it. I think I figured it wasn't right anyway and that the for sure answer would come from the doctors office anyway, I guess I should have recorded that phone call then. oops.

I have kept mine too I ONLy have one son who'll be 4 in December. I must've taken about 5 tests 'till the last one finally said positive. I was just so excited to be a mommy for the first time that I kept the test and I still have it hidden away. Of course, I also have other memorabilia like my son's first curls, ultrasounds, doctor's report that I was really pregnant. I'd probably do the same when I have some more kids in the future.

I still have the one from my son and he is now 3. I keep it in a scrapbook with his ultrasound pictures and other momentos. It hasn't faded at all and reminds me of a very happy day every time I look at it.

Uh, I THREW IT AWAY. Who keeps something they urinated on? I didn't need a keepsake or proof, pretty soon I have a huge tummy to remind me I was having a baby.
Geez some people are crazy.

Reply

I still have them, too! I placed them into a sandwich bag. Right now, they are in a bathroom drawer...waiting for the keepsake chest to be finished. After nearly 4 years, the positive result is clearly not faded.

With my first son we were so shocked it never occured to us to save it, we were at my mother-in-law's house and it got thrown away (we were told we'd never have kids without invitro, and we weren't even trying) With my two girls after I saved them. They're in their baby books. I thought I was the only one who did :)

Reply

I threw mine away immediately (with all the kids), then told my dh when I saw him next. I mean, I can understand the sentimental value and all, but I urinated on it! LOL

I kept mine. Grampa got each kid a silver cup with his name and birthdate on it. Each "pee stick" :) is sticking out of it's special cup. Three in all! (all boys!)
