Thanks, ladies. It's only a progesterone draw though. I'll xpost from my journal today:
I had my blood drawn bright and early this morning. I was at the hospital at 6:50 (after a 45 minute car ride) and I was there for like 5 minutes, then on my way back home (for another 45 minute car ride). Annoying, but whatever! They are only testing progesterone, even though I asked the nurse if we could cheat and add a beta test to it.
She said no and told me not to use HPTs very firmly. So what did I do? I came home and POAS! It was a FRER and it was stark white. Yes it's early, yes it could turn positive in a few days, but it still doesn't make me feel any better.
What I didn't share in here is that the other day (Wednesday) when I used my first FRER and got a BFN, about an hour later, a light pink line appeared on it (it may have been there a little sooner, but I didn't check until then). It was definitely after the time limit, but it's still there now and I now realize the trigger was still in my system a little bit. Today's test is undoubtedly negative! I've googled getting a BFN on 7dp3dt, and a lot of ladies didn't get a positive this early with IVF, so I just have to continue to have hope and pray. I have some cramps again today, which feel just like the ones earlier this week. My temp is a little inaccurate because I had to get up over an hour before regular time (hence the open circle). I did wake up in a pile of my own sweat in the middle of the night, and it was soooo icky to climb back into a cold wet bed.
It's probably from the progesterone.
I'm pretty busy at work today, so that should help me to keep my mind off of things and not get too down. I do plan on testing again on Sunday. If it is negative, I won't test again until Wednesday (the day before my beta) so that I know what to expect. I don't want to go on Thursday morning with hope and then end up crying my eyes out at work later that day. I'd like to be prepared. But, let's just hope we see "something" on that test Sunday so I can keep testing until my heart's desire.
