How Many Infertiles Does It Take To Read a Pregnancy Test?

So today is day 10 post transfer. Since we transferred day 5 blasts I thought it safe to test today.

Last time I tested on day 10 post transfer and got a positive result. So last night I went to Costco to pick up a few things, including pregnancy tests. I usually buy First Response (because I like to test early) but Costco only had Clear Blue. You are supposed to use them on the day you miss your period. I wanted something for early testing but they didn't have anything so I went ahead and bought the Clear Blue.

I woke up at 7:00 am this morning and went to pee on the stick. Immediately two blue lines. YEAH! For the first time of this cycle I had to admit this might work. I went right in to tell Rick and we talked for about 45 minutes about having a Christmas baby and how scary it was to be in early pregnancy again. We talked about how hurt we would be if this ended up in another miscarriage. Then I said "Take out that test again and let's stare at it". He pulled it off the table and handed it over and then he pulled out the instruction sheet and started reading. As I was happily gazing at the two lines, Rick got a very concerned look on his face. I asked what was wrong but he did not reply. I knew something was wrong.

Krista, he said, I don't know how to tell you this but we are not pregnant. What, that's impossible look at these two dark lovely blue lines. Yes but Krista, on this test you are supposed to get a plus sign if you are pregnant and just one straight line if it is negative. What???? I've never had a test that had anything but straight lines, you can't be serious.

So I grab the instruction sheet, sure enough my test window is supposed to have a plus sign in addition to a line in the control window. FUCK!!! I look at the test, definetely only 1 line. FUCK!!! Rick says maybe there was another line but it faded, No... I am very clear about how happy I was to see that 1 clearl line!
