Well, today I was at Target… so I picked up a box of two Target-brand HPTs. And of course, I took one when I got home. It was negative, as I expected. 9dpo really is too early to get a result, but… I couldn’t help it. Meh, maybe I’ll try to relax and just not think about it the next few days. :) I’m starting to think I’m not pregnant anyways… I just don’t feel it. Not that no symptoms means that you’re definitely not pregnant, but… probability and statistics are not on our side. Oh well. I keep thinking that if we don’t get pregnant the first month (or second), well then at least it will give me a chance to chart my cycles and find out more about how my body works, something I’ve wanted to do for years. So it’s not all bad.

But today while I was christmas shopping I was in Toys R Us and had to wander through the baby section and ooohhh so cute! I had to restrain myself from buying a cute bib (“I love daddy!” ) and a really nice “Baby’s First Year” memory book (different stores)… I just wanted to grab them, you know? But alas, I am forcing myself to wait until I actually get a positive pregnancy test to start buying the fun things. Hehe. It’s hard though.
