My First Pregnancy Test

I am so impatient that I decided to take a pregnancy test early. I am only 9 days past ovulation (5 days before my period) and I know that it is likely way too earlly to pick it up even if I am prego, but I just couldn't resist. Obviously it was a big fat nothing or I would be all excited and not venting my frustrations on my blog.

I am having so many symptoms that I'm really hoping are not in my head. I have been getting short bouts of nausea and got so bloated yesterday that it was actually hard to breathe for a few hours. I have also had rock hard nips for a few days and cramping on and off. My basal body temps are still high and I have an abundance of creamy CM. I know that all of this can be attributed to PMS but I still can't help but think that it's not.

Why do early pregnancy symptoms and PMS symptoms have to be exactly the same?! I have several dollar store tests and a handful of them from the internet that came with my ovulation tests so I think that I am going to take one every day until I either get a positive or my period. If I keep seeing negatives every day maybe I won't be that disappointed if I do get my period. On the other hand, if I do get a positive I'll know that much sooner! :) I know I sound like a mad woman and I guess that's what hormones and a goal will do for ya. Here's hoping that I know one way or the other in the next few days so I don't keep waking up at 5 in the morning because I'm too excited to pee on a stick.
