According to a survey commissioned by the makers of e.p.t. Brand, 67 percent of expectant mothers wound up saving their at- home pregnancy test as a keepsake because finding out they were pregnant was such a special moment.

Another 77 percent of moms say they would likely save that sweet little stick if they had a special box to put it in.

Luckily, women can now preserve the “moment they knew” with a commemorative keepsake case from e.p.t., available with a mail-in proof of purchase.

Meanwhile, other common pregnancy souvenirs to remember the experience by include ultrasound photos, which 88 percent of moms with a bun in the oven save.

Items from the actual delivery day, such as wristbands, a blanket, or baby’s first footprint, are kept by 57 percent of mothers.
