1. For those of you that have used progesterone suppositories: did your doctors give you any directions on what to do if you, um, are intimate while on them? How long does it take to get absorbed and would the act 6 hours later rub it all out? (Am I a prude or what?)
2. What happened to good old FRED? The First Response I just bought says nothing about being able to test 5 days sooner, like the ones I used a few years ago. The box just promotes 1 minute results. The web site only has the “5 days sooner” ones, though, so it doesn’t look like they’re selling two different products. Anyone know?
Updated: It turns out (contrary to the information on the FR web site), that there are actually two products with nearly identical packaging. One offers rapid results, the other early. I’m sure they’ve done tons of market research to segment market needs and I clearly fall in the freaky but high profit category of test early and often. I returned to the store and now have six early tests in my hot little hands.
I am convinced that I am not pregnant because I was reading my archives and my breasts were already huge by this stage with Gatito. A is sure that I am pregnant, but what does he know? I feel disappointed by the likelihood that this is not the month, even though I know I don’t have any right to feel disappointed. I wasn’t even actively trying and we didn’t get the timing exactly right and the timing with my new job is ridiculously bad. I know I have lots of infertile readers who would be well within their rights to shake their heads in disgust at me for daring to be disappointed after one measly non-try. But there it is anyway.
