Question

Why do people take apart their preg tests?

I keep seeing things about people taking them apart and reading the strips inside and was wondering why people do that? Will you see a faint line better if you take it apart?

Not that I am aware of...Probably just hoping that the negative line is lying.

I think some ladies like to hold it up to the light to see better.

desperation makes us do silly things, we'd prolly tell our girlfriends that if you can't see it , it aint there but we still go looking hoping inside has a different answer. like watching it for hours hoping something will happen. TTC makes everyone unstable and illogical from time to time,
