waiting (and a test)

I did it. I took a pregnancy test. This waiting wouldn't be quite as bad (maybe) if it weren't for the side effects of the progesterone. For me, it has made me extremely tired AND gassy. Yep, FULL of gas. The combination of both tired and gassy made me decide yesterday to NOT do the one dose in the morning as I was told, but instead to do it as soon as I get home from work, and then right before going to sleep. If it was for a pregnancy, of course it would seem like a much lesser ordeal. But when it's for the slight glimmer of a chance... well, that makes it harder. Sooooo... back to what I started to say.... I took a test tonight. It was negative. Which means it was not a false positive from the previously injected hormones (which can happen if you test too soon) and it being negative can simply mean it's a little too early still. I find out for sure Saturday, but I guess I just wanted to see what a test might show now at 11 days past insemination. Sigh. I now see why people talk about this "2 week wait" as being soooo long. It makes sense to just want to know, one way or another.... to cautiously celebrate or move on to the next cycle. Ok, off to bed I go.... the REAL answer will be here Saturday.
