Not yet positive

This morning I did a home pregnancy test and it was not yet positive. We are 4 days past 5 day transfer. Our last pregnancy was positive at 5 days past 5 day transfer, so we will see what tomorrow holds for us. Many people to not test positive until 7 days past 5 day transfer. On our first transfer we never got a positive home pregnancy test and still had a positive blood test.

For those of you not in the fertility game, 9 days past 5 day transfer is the day your period should be due. We still have many days to test between now. We will keep you posted.

Here is an amusing exchange. My husband wrote an email updating his family after the transfer. Here is part of the email and the response from my not so subtle sister-in-law whom I love to pieces.

Husband: By the way, the IVF transfer went very smoothly yesterday, more smoothly than the others had, giving us a very good feeling. Unfortunately someone rear-ended us on the way there when traffic slowed abruptly on 880, but the damage is very modest and no one was hurt. Theresa is now enjoying her rest. We will know more officially when we do the blood test on 11/14, but Theresa might do home pregnancy tests before then.

Sister-in-law: Theresa "might" do some tests before them? Might?
Either she's had a major conversion or you are the king of understatement!
Which is it?:)

Subtlety has never been my strong suit, it's true. But I only harass the people I love, so really, it's a compliment.
