5DP5DT - 5 Days Past a 5 Day Transfer

Well, I'm officially at the half way point between my transfer and my blood test to confirm if this worked.  Talk about a stressful few days.  I've had days where I 'feel' like I'm pregnant (sore boobs, tired) and other days, I feel just fine.  If I'm pregnant, the implantation is complete and tomorrow I should be able to get a positive result on a HPT (Home Pregnancy Test).  Since the start of this process, I swore I wouldn't use a HPT because I didn't want a false positive due to the trigger shot, but I'm so anxious right now that I just want to know.

The blastocyst continues to hatch out of its shell and begins to attach itself to the uterus
Three
The blastocyst attaches deeper into the uterine lining, beginning implantation
Four
Implantation continues
Five
Implantation is complete, cells that will eventually become the placenta and fetus have begun to develop
Six
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) starts to enter the blood stream
Seven
Fetal development continues and hCG continues to be secreted
