Thoughts on testing...

I realized this morning that I hadn't really explained what I'm doing this month about testing.

I'm not.

Nope. No pregnancy tests this month at all. I used up the last test I had in the house during last cycle, so I vowed not to buy anymore. See, it's like this. The RE's office is going to make me get a blood test whether I get my period on August 3 or not. They need to run the test whether or not I am pregnant. If I'm pregnant, then GREAT! But if not, they won't let me start another cycle of meds until they run the beta to prove that I'm not pregnant. As I found out last month the hard way. So, rather than put myself through the heartache of seeing yet another BFN, I decided to wait for the beta and leave it at that. I figured if they're making me do it either way, I may as well give in and just have them run the test.

So that's it. I'm leaving it in their hands. I figured hearing the results over the phone can't be any worse than seeing another single line on a test. Plus, if it's positive, then it'll be nice to hear it from someone else so that I can make them convince me that it's true.

That makes sense! Well then I'll be praying that the RE's office has some wonderful news for you.

So . . .what are you doing to try and distract yourself this week? Any fun plans with E?
