6dp5dt

Time continues to crawl by. I went in for bloodwork this morning and the phlebotomist felt sorry for how sore I appear to be. All of my E2 and P4 levels continue to look great, so if that's any consolation... No, not really. I also got the hook up on needles by driving across town after work to a hole-in-the-wall pharmacy. They charged 8 cents per needle, which is a lot less than the Walgreens Specialty Pharmacy I've been dealing with. I really don't think the needle will make much of a difference in the pain I'm experiencing, but there's something about a shorter needle that seems easier to handle.

I still feel pretty asymptomatic. The progesterone seems to have finally kicked in and made my chest a little uncomfortable. Saturday night at dinner I felt a little nauseous, but that was also the last day I took an HCG booster shot. I continue to have cramps on and off which feel like burning ovaries. My pants feel like they dig in a little when I'm sitting, and at times things just feel full in my abdomen. I seem a little dehydrated, and very hungry. The constipation continues, but my headache went away. The fatigue is gone. When I was pregnant with Noah my extra nipple popped out like a turkey timer by 7dp5dt, but unfortunately it stayed permanently "popped" so I can't read anything from it. Bummer.

I know, I know. You really can't read into anything. I apparently was pregnant back at the end of May and had ZERO idea until I was 5 days late and thought, "Why the hell is my period not starting?!" However, I remain pretty convinced that this didn't work. And yes, I remain steadfast in my decision to avoid the POAS madness. My beta is on Thursday, and I'm not sure how I'm going to handle the phone call. I want to hear the news with Brian, so I think it's best to let it go to voicemail and listen with Brian at home. I risk the possibility that they won't leave the actual results in the message, forcing me to call them back on Friday, but if that happens then I will POAS Thursday night.
