I counted the pregnancy tests I have and I had six total. Three that came with the Space Ship (ovulation kit) Russ sent me and three I bought myself. Russ sent me the Clear Blue Digital which don't specify they are early tests but the stats show them working up to 4 days before a missed period. I bought the First Response Early Pregnancy Tests because I read reviews that they were the most sensitive early tests out there and the best. I think it was Consumer Reports that said that. Also, they actually say on the box that you can use them up to 6 days before your period, which is today.
As I already mentioned, I took the first test yesterday hoping for a negative to prove that the hCG from my trigger shot was indeed out of my system. I decided to start daily testing today rather than tomorrow, mostly out of going crazy over the wait.
This morning I peed on another First Response stick. After three minutes, I thought I saw the ever so faintest second line! Could it be that I was starting to have just enough trace amounts of hCG in my urine for it to pick it up today or was it just me looking so hard at the test that I was seeing the strip that activates?
I took it to more even lighting. Still there. Is my mind and heart playing tricks on me? Wishful thinking causing me to see something that wasn't there?
I went into my bathroom and pulled out the stick from yesterday to see if you could see the same second line on it in the right lighting. Nope, that baby is as negative as can be. One single strong solid line with no other inkling of another line or anything else with it. If you ask me, there is a definite difference between the two tests and I can help but get excited over it!
I suppose we shall find out for sure tomorrow!! :)
