Trigger Is Gone...

Since my friend gladly donated an unused brand new First Response Early test the other day I felt compelled to use it...the other day. It was about 5:10ish in the evening, and I had used the bathroom at 4. I was honestly hoping for a BFN...just so that I would stop torturing myself and would wait until next Monday like the RE suggested. Of course it was an immediate and pink BFP. So yesterday, being the complete glutton for punishment that I am took my 9 days post ovulatory self down to Rite Aid.

There I purchased a 2 pack of Answer Early. Heck for $10 you can't go wrong. Again I was expecting a BFN immediately. Heck, I wasn't even holding the goods. I went to the bathroom, stick in pocket as soon as I felt the urge. Once again immediate though fainter pink BFP. Now I was getting frustrated. The line wasn't dark enough where Jacob would actually be able to view it, but it was there with no squinting. Sigh. It was then that I put stick number 2 in my purse and decided I would use it this morning with FMU. After all I would be 6 days post booster, and 10 days post ovulation. At this point if it were the same color or darker I would know I was actually the *P* word.

So once again at 4:30 like clock work I am awake. I trudge to the bathroom and remember that I am supposed to test. Well the urgency was there so I used a cup to catch the goods. I then ripped into the remaining pregnancy test and dipped it for the requisit amount of mintues...and then I waited. The line of urine traveled across the area where the first line should be...NOTHING. The line crossed the control...immediate pink. So I put the test back in its foil case and put it away. I would check it later I decided. After all I am only checking for the remains of a trigger shot.

At 6:00 the alarm shrieks and I roll over in search of my thermometer. Still nice and "high" By high I mean 98.4 two days ago it was 98.2 when "George" is coming it will be 97.7 to 97.9 I had to potty again. Didn't I just do this an hour and a half ago? So with Jacob in the shower I sat on the pot and pulled out my test. Still negative...

So now I wait. I am 10 days post ovulation...AF could reasonably show any where between now and 6 days from now according to past history. Of course I am still holding out a tiny bit of hope that she stays away until December...but with the end of the trigger so are the end of my symptoms...so I am not as sure about that as I once was...but at least I know if AF comes...the seemingly LONGEST cycle in my life is coming to an end...after all didn't my last AF come when dinosaurs roamed the Earth?
