*sigh*

I'm feeling very anxious today...tomorrow is the 28th day of this cycle and I'm becoming antsy about taking a pregnancy test. Of course, I've gotten out the package and read the instructions even though I've used them before. The reason I decided I wanted to reread and educate myself is because I wanted to know how soon I could test. Apparently, with this brand, I could test up to four days before my missed period. Thus, I could technically test today and the test would be 95% accurate. My biggest concern is that I'm not always "regular" and even though I've followed a more typical pattern lately, I'd hate to take the test and it be a false negative because I wasn't patient. That would be just too crushing, so I'm mustering up all my strength to just wait it out. It's really exciting though to think that I might actually be pregnant. I know if I'm not I'll be a little crushed, but it just means we try again this next month.

I can't help but start thinking about how I woud break the news to BJ, or my friends and family. I've got a few ideas up my sleeve...of course, I guess that news will follow later. Right now I'm just hoping with all my might that the next test shows a positive and I can take another pee stick picture. Hehe!

I peed on everything when we were trying. I'd pee on a stick in the middle of the afternoon knowing that reality said not too. I was just so hopeful!
