Testing, testing, one, two, three...

Call me impatient. I tested today. Not surprised that it was negative, it's way too early for it to be positive. I'm only 9 days past ER after all. But, in a way, I'm glad that I tested this morning and I'm glad that it was negative. I know now that the trigger shot that I took before ER is now out of my system. The trigger shot is hcg which is the same hormone that pregnancy tests detect. Had I gotten a positive today, I wouldn't know for sure if it was a real positive or a fake positive. Now I know and if, when, I test and get a positive result, I will know for sure that it's not a false positive and will be able to celebrate.
